The Czech football club Bohemians Prague have been saved from
bankruptcy, team representatives announced on Monday. The club was
stripped of its professional licence and knocked out of the second
football league several weeks ago because of crippling debts. At a news
conference on Monday representatives of the recently-formed AFK
Vrsovice company said they had taken over the club. According to the
club's website, British company New Europe Entrepreneurs Counsellors is
the full owner of AFK. Bohemians, who were founded in 1905, won the
Czech title in 1983 and in the same year reached the semi-finals of the
UEFA Cup.
