The1923 FAI Cup final was contested byLeague of Ireland sideShelbourne ofDublin andAlton United ofBelfast's Fall's League on 17 March atDalymount Park,Dublin.^[1]

Matchday summary

[edit]

Given the turbulent political situation in Dublin at the time,Alton United were given an armed escort fromAmiens Street Station by theIRA. The Dubliners who were red hot favourites to lift the trophy in only its second year, played well below par and the visitors won it through the only goal.

Alton's players were presented with their medals after the game, but theFootball Association of Ireland refused them permission to take the trophy back to Belfast with them due to the tense political situation there. Shortly after Alton affiliated to theIrish Football Association and therefore never defended the trophy the following season.
