As a player he took going-through-the-motions to a new level. As for on the field inspiration he wasn't on the same planet as Vic Halom. Off the field there was plenty of urban myth (car etc) which may or may not be true. Definitely true was that he lost the dressing room alienating players like Peter McDonell and Kenny Gordon who left and joined Morecambe replacing them with the likes of Brian Edwards who was later to be suspended sine die after chasing an opponent wielding a railway sleeper in a Cheshire Sunday League game. Kidds' final act was also noteable denying in the EM a report in a Sunday paper that he was leaving,before walking out 24 hours later.
He didn’t to badly after leaving us mind coaching at both United and City
Yes or maybe there were players of quality at both clubs and he just went through the motions.

Remember Jake Young on loan from Bradford City last season with zero goal in 17 appearances?

Well, now on loan at Swindon Town, top scorer in the league so far with 7 in 4 games, including a hat-trick today, 43 mins per goal overall. Re-call imminent if this form continues.

Hey ho.

Hey ho.
He is at again today. 2 goals in 18 first half minutes. Real example of how, at this level, given the optimal set-up players can perform at their best.

Remember Brian Kidd being sat in the stand before being announced as the new manager.
We were playing Telford and the game kicked off around 45 minutes late due to the late arrival of Telford. Long time ago but think we won 2-0.
