Irish Press, March 1945
All soccer followers were sorry to hear of the death last 
week of John ("Fatty") Kavanagh, a well-known player in the 
early days of the F.A.I., or the then Free State League. He 
was left full-back on the St. James's Gate Team that won the 
Cup in 1921-22. He also played with Bendigo, and was on the 
first Irish Junior team to beat Scotland in Glasgow in March 
1921.
