The centre forward scored 23 goals in 28 games, the highlights being hattricks, firstly in a league game against Shelbourne and then in the semi-final of the Gold Cup against Linfield at Solitude. He moved to Falkirk in October 1920 but returned to re-join Glentoran for the 1922-23 season. Joe played just 3 games before moving the short distance to Queen’s Island (24-25). It was back across the Irish Sea for Gowdy and a further two seasons with Falkirk with whom he ended his career. Joe Gowdy played a total of 38 games for Glentoran and scored 30 goals. He won his first international cap with Glentoran, a further one with Queen’s Island and four with Falkirk. He played as center-forward in that first game and center-half in the other five!
