Description
Brian Kilcline is a retired English professional footballer. He played as a centre half for Coventry City, Newcastle United, Notts County, Oldham Athletic, Swindon Town, Mansfield Town and Halifax Town, and was famous for his long hair and moustache.
Kilcline captained Coventry City in the 1987 FA Cup final at Wembley against Tottenham Hotspur. At the time it was thought that Kilcline was possibly responsible for scoring an own-goal to give Spurs a 2-1 lead on the 40 minute mark, but this goal was eventually accredited to Gary Mabbutt. Kilcline and Mabbutt were to clash again in the second half when, Kilcline brought down Mabbutt with a tackle. Kilcline was not cautioned by referee Neil Midgley but had to be replaced by substitute Graham Rodger just a minute before then end of normal time due to the injury he himself sustained in the clash. After Coventry's extra time winner Kilcline limped slowly up the famous Wembley step to receive the trophy for the first time in Coventry's history.
In 1991, Kilcline joined newly promoted Oldham Athletic but his stay at the club was not to be a long one.
