John "Jack" Mahon (born 1886, place of birth unknown) was a professional association football player. After playing for minor teams Clowne White Star and Worksop Town he joined Football League club Gainsborough Trinity in 1908.[1] He played 22 times for the club before joining New Brompton in 1909. He remained with the club, later renamed Gillingham, until 1920 and made over 250 appearances.[2] He also gained the club's first ever representative honour when he played for a Southern League XI against an equivalent team from The Football League in 1910.[3] In 1920 he left Gillingham to join Doncaster Rovers.[1]
