FC Bohemians Praha (currently named as Bohemians 1905) is a Prague-based football club with over a hundred years of history. It is one of the most popular clubs in the Czech Republic. In the year 2005 it survived a crisis, which was a consequence of bad management. The club was saved by its fans, who paid club's debts. Its colors are green and white. The home stadium located in Vršovice is called Ďolíček. The best known player from Bohemians' history is Antonín Panenka. Bohemian's mascot is a kangaroo, the legacy of a 1927 tour of Australia. Following the tour, the club was awarded two live kangaroos, which they donated to the Prague Zoo.
