John Clarkin (inside-forward) 1911-12
Like many of his compatriots, Clarkin was not a real success with City
and he spent most of his time at Elland Road in the reserves. His only
first-team appearance came as a replacement for the injured Joe
Enright on Boxing Day 1911 when City beat Gainsborough 2-1, but he
did not create any lasting impression. After just one season in the English game, Clarkin moved back to Ireland
and joined Belfast Celtic in the summer of 1912.
John
Clarkin was one of a clutch of Irishman signed for Leeds City by secretary-manager
Frank Scott-Walford, joining
the club in May 1911 from Shelbourne, along with team mate Willie Briggs.
