David McMahon is one of the most popular and richest Irish footballer who was born on January 17, 1981 in New York, United States. David McMahon (born 17 January 1981) is an Irish former professional footballer who was a forward in Darlington as part of the Football League and for Falkirk and Queen of the South in the Scottish League. He also played on the Irish League for Bangor, as well as in English non-league football with Durham City, Blyth Spartans, Whitley Bay, Newcastle Blue Star, Ryton, Bedlington Terriers and Ashington.
In September 1998 He was named to the under-18 side to the under-18 team for the very first time in order to boost the physicality of the squad prior to their European Championship qualifying stage. He was only a player, but he came in to play alongside Gary Doherty as a substitute during the third game of the group in the third group match. Ireland required to beat Russia to be able to progress to the play-off stage – Colin Healy scored the winner in the 90th minute but he didn’t play further in the match as Ireland finished 3rd in 1999’s Championship.
In December 2000, McMahon joined Football League Third Division club Darlington on loan for the remainder of the season. He made his debut as a second-half substitute in a 1–0 defeat at Leyton Orient, and scored his first goal in the next match, heading home Martin Gray’s cross to open the scoring in a 3–0 win at home to Lincoln City. Ahead of the Football League Trophy visit to York City in January 2001, McMahon agreed with manager Gary Bennett’s suggestion that he had not been at his best; he responded by producing a run that forced a York defender to bring him down for a penalty kick, and then, collecting the ball from a throw-in with his back to goal on the edge of York’s penalty area, he “turned and sent a left-foot curler past the outstretched hand” of the goalkeeper for Darlington’s third goal. As the club brought in other forwards during the season, including David Brightwell, Steve Harper and Clint Marcelle, McMahon lost his place. His last of eleven appearances in all competitions was on 24 February as a substitute. When his Newcastle contract expired at the end of the season, the club released him on a free transfer.
In September 2000, he joined Scottish Division One club Falkirk on loan for a month to gain experience of first-team football. He went straight into the starting eleven for Falkirk’s League Cup match against Hibernian, and opened the scoring in the 75th minute with a powerful header, but the Scottish Premier League leaders won 2–1 after extra time. He contributed to a 2–1 defeat of Raith Rovers in the league, and crossed for Gareth Hutchison’s opening goal as Falkirk won at Ross County, before returning to Newcastle.
McMahon was the top scorer, scoring five goals and four goals during the time that Ireland under-17s came second in an invitational six-team competition that took place in Israel during December 1998 as well as January 1999. Despite McMahon scoring two goals in three games, with the second leading his total score to 16 goals in twenty-six youth internationals Ireland U17 did not advance beyond the group stage in the 1999 Meridian Cup. The following year, he was a player with the under-18s in an international friendly against Germany as well as in the European qualifying game against Malta as well as in the second game in the 2000 European Championship play-off defeat against France.
