Cliftonville ............. 1938 Amateur


Biography:

"Allen knows all there is to know about the half-back job. He is a good defensive player, a speedy and confident tackler, and a very difficult player to get the better of in a battle of wits. He makes good use of the ball and parts to the best advantage. The men in front can always rely on his backing in a difficulty."

-Ireland's  Saturday Night (1938)

A product of Boys' Brigade football, in his juvenile days Sam Allen was connected with the 10th Old Boys.  His consistency and apparent talent saw him sign for Crusaders, then one of the leading intermediate sides. While at Seaview, Allen claimed a Steel Cup winner's medal as Glentoran Seconds were defeated in the final at Celtic Park.

Having proved himself in the Intermediate League, Allen had little to learn when he stepped up to senior football for the 1937/38 season with Ards. In his first season as an Irish League player he was selected for Amateur Ireland, and was noted as one of the successes as the side earned a 1-1 draw with England.

Allen moved on to Cliftonville in 1938.

Norman McKay

Name: Norman V. McKay
Born: Belfast
Height:
Weight:
Position: Right-Half


Representative Honours: Ireland: 1 Amateur Cap (1937).


Club Career:
Teams..... --Seasons-- Signed --Fee-- League 
Glentoran. 35/36-36/37 ...... Amateur ..3/ 0* 
Luton Town ........... c/s-37 ......... 0/ 0 
* all games.


Biography:
A product of Boys' Brigade football, where he played inter-Battalion representative games, Norman McKay progressed to the Old Boys' League before signing with Glentoran Seconds. He was a Seconds player during the 1935/36 season as they reached the semi-finals of the Irish Cup and he also enjoyed runs to the Intermediate Cup and Steel Cup finals.

Possessor of a touch of artistry, he was still an Irish League novice when included in the Amateur Ireland side that face Scotland in April 1937. Despite his inexperience he didn't look out of place, but still his future looked to lie away from The Oval and a move to Cliftonville was mooted.

Also capable in the forward line, McKay was most comfortable at right-half where his strength as a ball winner and ball carrier were greatly appreciated and his distribution was cool and effective. When he did leave the Glens behind it was for England, and a Luton Town side freshly promoted to the Second Division. In the end he never played a match in the Football League.

Limerick.... 45/46-46/47 c/s-45 ........ ??/ 0 

Biography:

A Newry native, Paddy Duffy played Junior football in the area with Newry Celtic before being promoted to senior level by Newry Town manager William Weir during the 1936/37 season. A light-framed but whole-hearted and enthusiastic defender, Duffy settled quickly in the higher surroundings. Two footed, he was equally at home in either full-back role, "speedy and clean in his work, [...] judicious in his tackles [and] remarkably quick in recovering [he] brought positioning to a fine art."

In his first season as an Irish League footballer Duffy aided Newry to a rare trophy success, the Mid-Ulster Cup being won for the first time, and earned selection for Amateur Ireland. His international bow, played against Scotland at Third Lanark's Cathkin Park, resulted in a 3-0 reverse, with Duffy putting through his own net for the Scots' opener. Despite the own goal in negative result, it was rightly predicted that Duffy would "soon have other souvenirs to swell his collection."  

Through the early-40s, Duffy spent a highly successful five seasons with Cork United, claiming four titles as well as FAI Cup, Shield, City Cup and Munster Cup successes. Among his teammates in the 1940/41 "Double" winning season were former Newry players, Jimmy Hooks and Mick McKenna and other colleagues included Bobby McFarlane (ex-Belfast Celtic, Larne and Distillery) and the goalscoring phenomenon Owen Madden (one-time capped by Ireland and formerly of Birmingham and Norwich City).
