John West (footballer)

John West was an Irish soccer player who played for Bohemians during the 1910s.

He was top scorer for Bohs during the 1912/13 season.[1] His goalscoring record for that season showed a total of 23 goals from 31 games in all competitions. This places him in the top 20 goalscoring seasons of all time for Bohemians. This was all achieved without payment as Bohs were strictly amateur during these times.

He later had spells at Belfast United and Cardiff City and was coach at Drumcondra during the 1930s.[2]
