Jonathan "Johnny" Magee is an Irish Gaelic football manager and former player who is the manager of the Wicklow footballers. He played club football for Kilmacud Crokes and inter-county football for Dublin.
Johnny played at half back for Dublin in the late 90's and early years of the 21st century. He made his senior football debut for Dublin against Sligo in the 1997 National Football League although he had previously appeared for Dublin in the O'Byrne Cup against Wexford in 1996. In 2003, Magee was substituted against Armagh during an All-Ireland quarter final to allow a reserve goalkeeper to come on following the sending off of Stephen Cluxton. Seen by several commentators as having his best ever game for the Dubs, Magee's absence was immediately felt and Armagh went on to win the game. After a two-year absence, Magee has returned to the Dublin Senior Football panel for 2007.[1][2] He won the O'Byrne Cup for Dublin in 2007 against Laois at O'Connor Park in Offaly. The game finished on a scoreline of 1-18 to 2-13 against Laois. Magee made a late appearance in the Leinster Senior Football final playing for less than a minute before the final whistle.
He played midfield for Kilmacud Crokes when they won the Dublin Senior Football Championship in 2004, 2005, 2008 and 2010. His team went on to claim the Leinster Club Football Championship in 2005, 2008 and 2010. He captained the team to win the All-Ireland Senior Club Football Championship in Croke Park on 17 March 2009 beating Crossmaglen Rangers on a scoreline of 1-9 to 0-7.
