Kinnear guided Wimbledon to a top-six Premier League finish.
Former Wimbledon and Newcastle manager Joe Kinnear made his name as a player with Tottenham .As a dependable full-back, he served as a key member of a star-studded Tottenham side before embarking upon a managerial career which brought him huge acclaim with Wimbledon’s ‘Crazy Gang’, but ended in a hail of expletives, controversy and at times ridicule at Newcastle.
Having met and set up home with Gerry Kinnear in Watford, she returned for her children when her son was six and, along with the couple’s daughters Louise and Amelia, the Reddy children took on their stepfather’s surname. After a successful trial, he signed amateur terms with the club’s youth team, having been asked to switch from his accustomed right-half role to right full-back, and won his first professional contract at the age of 18.
Nicholson’s resignation as his team started to slide signalled the beginning of the end for Kinnear at White Hart Lane and a move to third division Brighton in 1975 amounted to just 16 appearances as a knee ligament injury effectively ended his playing career. With ‘Crazy Gang’ stalwart Vinnie Jones returning from Chelsea as club captain, Kinnear guided the Dons to sixth place in the Premier League in his second full season and three major semi-finals on modest resources, with his man-management skills and tactical awareness establishing an unbreakable bond with his players.In March 1999 he suffered a heart attack and, in the aftermath, decided the time was ripe for change, despite Hamman having promised him a job for life.
His first press conference descended into an expletive-ridden rant, in the process earning himself the nickname ‘JFK’, with no prizes for guessing for what the ‘F’ might stand for, and his subsequent appearances before the media were often entertaining, if not always factually accurate.
