Jordan's "arrival" that 33/34 season coincided with another Billy being appointed coach - Bill Lacey.
It was Lacey who shrewdly gave Fred Horlacher a new lease of life by moving him back to left half (what might be regarded as a defensive midfield position nowadays) and installed Jordan at inside left.
Jordan stayed on the left wing during 34/35 and played in a dramatic FAI Cup final against Dundalk though suffering from a knee injury.
Bohs were reduced to ten men several times during the match, permanently so with over half an hour to play as the injured Paddy Farrell couldn't continue, but they held on with their backs to the wall for a 4-3 win and it still remains the highest scoring final in its long history.
Jordan earned his first full international cap for the Irish Free State on 8 April 1934 against Netherlands in a 5-2 defeat.
