Star for both sides - KIM CASEY |
|
Kim Casey was a legend for Kidderminster before his brief spell with the Wanderers. He first signed for The Harriers in 1985 and in his first season scored a remarkable 73 goals in 69 appearances - not surprisingly a club record. He moved on to Cheltenham Town in 1990 before his transfer to Wycombe in Jan 1992 under Martin O'Neill. Injuries dogged his time with Wycombe and although he joined in the 1992/93 promotion party he left at the end of the season to join Solihull Borough before a return to Kidderminster in 1995 and then a final spell at Moor Green. |
