RIP Ken. Our Manager when we won the Milk Cup in 1985....

....and who knows when we will (if ever) win a Knockout Cup again. Ken took over from John Bond and integrated youngsters such as Mark Barham and Peter Mendham into the side. He bought Steve Bruce, Dave Watson, John Deehan & Mick Channon to the club. And we were good - bloody good at times. As others have said always with a smile. Deserves to be ranked with the greatest City Managers. From someone high in the stands at Wembley in March '85 - Thanks Ken.
