Leave Your Mark Update: Jock and Kev Morrison Agree to Play

24/4/2016

Aberystwyth Town FC Legends Donald "Jock" Kane and Kevin Morrison are the first two Green Legends to confirm for Aber Town's farewell event to the Park Avenue turf, Leave Your Mark on Friday 13th May - and you can bid to play alongside them for £100.

Jock is a legendary character to any Black and Green supporter from the 1980s or 1990s, having played 503 games and scored 137 goals for Town between 1981-2001. After arriving in the University as a student from Glasgow Donald was the beating heart of Meirion Appleton's hugely successful side from the Mid 1980s which twice won the Central Wales League, and he also played for Town in the Abacus League and the League of Wales. Since retiring his influence has grown even further within the Club as he has played the roles of Chairman, Vice Chairman and countless others with distinction, overseeing three forays into European Football, as and helping to transform Aber Town off the field into one of the most respected Semi Professional clubs in Wales. 

Kevin is no less respected, having scored a truly remarkable 396 goals for the Club in 489 games between 1984 and 2000. A fearsome striker respected and coveted throughout Wales, Kevin's ability to jump like a salmon and hang in the air before heading the ball goalbound was uncanny. His period of success again coincided closely with Meirion Appleton and Tomi Morgan's spells in charge at the Club, and he famously scored Aber's first ever European goals at Park Avenue in front of a crowd of over 2,000 at home to Floriana in July 1999. Kev has remained with the Club behind the scenes and is now a Club Director, Treasurer, and last year he became a father too!

Kev and Jock are fourth and sixth left in the back row in this rare photo of Aberystwyth Town's Championship Winning side of 1985.

Last week we revealed Meirion Appleton and Tomi Morgan as our two Managers, and a host of Green Legends have agreed to play. We will be revealing the names this week.

You can bid money to play in the Leave Your Mark game, and the highest 20 bidders will be eligible to play, irrespective of ability, on receipt of payment by Friday 6th May at the latest. The deadline for bids is 5pm on Friday 29th April, and they can be made by email to abertownfc@live.co.uk, with a contact name, address and phone number, or by text to Club Marketing Director Thomas Crockett on 07717 470301. Minimum bids will be £100, and in the event of a tie a draw will be made.
