Career & Clubs
In 1922, Dowdall was a member of the St James's Gate team that won the first ever League of Ireland title and the first ever FAI Cup. During the FAI Cup final against Shamrock Rovers, his skirmishes with Bob Fullam helped provoke post-match disturbances involving players and supporters. Together with Paddy Duncan, Thomas Murphy, Ernest MacKay and Michael Farrell, Dowdall was one of five players from St James's Gate, included in the Irish Free State squad for the 1924 Olympic Games. After a spell with Fordsons, Dowdall played for both Barnsley and Swindon Town in the English League. He made his debut for Swindon on 1 March 1930, scoring in a 3–3 away draw with Northampton Town. However, he only made 8 league appearances for the club. He scored again, against Watford in 3–1 home defeat on 18 April, before making his final appearance on 21 April in 4–1 away defeat against the same opponents.
