Shaftesburyred Posted February 20, 2014 Report Share Posted February 20, 2014 Good to see Kevin still plying his trade in the West Country at Salisbury City. In the Conference play off places they seem to be giving it a good go. 31 years young makes him three years older than his manager! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pongo88 Posted February 20, 2014 Report Share Posted February 20, 2014 I don't know what he said to Neil Harris. Can anyone elaborate? As regards football ability he is one of the many City players with great potential who just faded away. He was playing well with rumours of bigger clubs about to make a bid when he had a bad car accident. Although he seemed to recover he was never quite the same player again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Posted February 20, 2014 Report Share Posted February 20, 2014 http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/eng_div_2/8303937.stm Swindon manager Danny Wilson says the war of words between Kevin Amankwaah and Millwall's Neil Harris is over. Amankwaah admitted making an "insensitive" comment about Harris' battle with testicular cancer. The Swindon defender claimed he was racially abused, something Harris has strongly denied. But Wilson told BBC Wiltshire: "Both players have come to a diplomatic agreement and we've drawn a line under it, end of story." He added: "When washing starts being hung out in public it's very difficult, but at this moment in time everything is fine. "Things happen in the game, there's regrets through this one way or another, but that's the end of it." Amankwaah claimed he suffered "racial and physical abuse" during Saturday's 1-1 draw, in which he clashed with Harris. The defender apologised to the striker over a jibe about his testicular cancer and is also making a charity donation. In a statement on the Swindon website Amankwaah said: "My comments may have been misplaced, but equally racial and physical abuse has no place in football. "I have held my hands up but I think it would be appropriate if others did." He had initially denied taunting Harris, 32, over his battle against the disease but has decided to make a donation to the Everyman Cancer Charity, of which Harris is a patron. Harris has described Amankwaah's claims as "frankly laughable." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cider red Posted February 20, 2014 Report Share Posted February 20, 2014 I remember he broke his neck, came back and was never the same. Ended up going by the way side. He came through around the same time as aaron and marvin brown, all 3 showed great promise but for whatever reason never really made it. Wasted their talent on the lash me thinks.
