Good question Bellshill Bhoy, The King of Kings or King Kenny?Excellent article, enjoyed reading it, love the bit about Walter Ingles, was my music teacher in high school, loved the hoops, played the organ in Holy Family chapel in mossend, 400k was a fair price at the time, remember it was 1977, Trevor Francis, was Britain’s 1st £1 million transfer and that didn’t happen till 1979, Kenny wanted to leave, had done it all here, auld board in it‘s heyday, biscuit tin mentality, players were getting paid peanuts, going to Liverpool to replace Kevin Keegan, it was a good fit, interesting fact...Kenny sold for 400k, Larson bought for 440k......who would you rather have?

Love that!Can you imagine King Kenny feeding the King of Kings from midfield
I saw an interview with Ian Rush who was told by him just run into the box I'll hit you.
First game he sees Kenny surrounded by three defenders with his back to goal so doesn't run.
The ball landed exactly where he should be and Kenny does his nut
Reckoned most of his goals came from Kenny bouncing the ball off him into the net
