    Did Alan Kennedy ever play for hibs (NON MANAGER POST RELATED)

    Basically i was speaking to Alan Kennedy (formerly of Newcastle, Sunderland and Liverpool(inc. 1984 league title, league cup and European Cup winning side)) last March in Bermuda. Im sure we were talking about when he had played for hibs and iv since checked, and cant find any proof that he played in the mighty green and white.

    Was he winding me up as i was pretty intoxicated or has my intoxicated memory decieved me ?

    Anybody shed any light??

    Kennedy played against us in a friendly with Swansea City, circa 85 IIRC. Maybe he also played against us for Liverpool.

    ahh,, maybe that is what he was saying.

    BUT if he wasn't lying to me and that is what he was saying, he did seem a really good guy, good laugh if i remember correctly.

    C'mon now, you told that story so we'd all be impressed that you'd been to Bermuda

    AK was very highly thought of by many in the game so you're spot on with your assessment

    I wanted to work there, but if it rains, and there's guys going around pretending to be pro footballers, then maybe it's not the place I thought it was.

    Was this bloke wearing pyjamas and standing waiting for a bus when you spoke to him by any chance?

    i think he maybe took me as a drunk fool.


    Couple of years ago on a golfing holiday in Portugal we got talking to an auld boy in Jinkys Bar in Albufeira. Boy said he was Jimmy Wardhaugh, of the Hertz Terrible Trio fame (and was backed up by the barman). Made sure ne never put his hand in his pocket and spent a few hours in his company while he regaled us with tales about Derby days gone by, and his disappointment about not getting more Scotland caps.

    Mentioned the encounter to a Jambo at work a few weeks later, and he reckoned Jimmy Wardhaugh had died in the late seventies.......

    Hook, Line and Sinker! Fair play to the auld chancer, his patter was good.
