About Andy Kennedy (footballer, born 1897)

Andrew Lynd Kennedy (1 September 1897 – December 1963) was an Irish footballer. However, he did not find favour under Herbert Chapman, who first switched Bob John back into defence, and then signed Horace Cope during 1925–26 as a replacement for Kennedy. Everton won the First Division championship that season but Kennedy was only a reserve player that season.
