Under notable pupils section there is no mention of John Dempsey who played center back for many years for Chelsea and won a Cup winners medal with them. He was a year below me and scored prolifically for the school teams as a center forward. I once played against him at King Edwards Park in Willesden.
By the way your web page is great. Kudos for doing this.

As well as playing in a European final, John Dempsey, an old teammate of mine for Iverson F.C. scored a goal in that European final which Chelsea won 2-1.

I saw Alec McKay note about an ex pupil John Dempsey been left out of pupils who went to Kynaston school.
I am the John Dempsey and yes I played for Fulham Chelsea and also I played for Eire as well as an international.
I went to Kynaston from 1957-1961 and really enjoyed going to such a good school.Maybe you can add my name to people that achieved something which would be nice.
