[Oldsmobile-88]

A name synonymous with Exeter City for football supporters in the country of a certain age.
Everyone knew him as Exeter City’s premier goalscorer.

Much loved by fans & all his team mates at SJP.

I remember Kirky telling me when he picked Kells up before a evening answering questions in the Centre Spot(a great night & laugh)around 2007,he was walking through Heavitree with him.It took ages because of the amount of people who recognised him & having a chat.
Amazing when you think he had retired 30 years before !

Great memories of him in the Eagle Tavern & when he ran the Clifton Inn when he was playing.

True Legend - from non league to stardom (well ECFC Legend anyway) if only we could find another

 

[Oldsmobile-88]

Great work from Scott Palfrey.

Certainly one of mine. Capable of turning a match at any moment.
My avatar is a game against Walsall I think in the late 1970s, with the great man in typical posture: covered in mud, arms aloft in front of a dispirited opposition defence!

It needs an edit. 341 appearances, 150 goals. The City Legend, there ain't no other.

When he signed, he said he would "fill the net up". He kept his word.

Complete career record.

I have three abiding memories of him from watching behind the goal on the Big Bank:
Tony receiving the ball, back to goal on the edge of the area, turning the defender and lashing it into a corner of the goal.
His penalties - putting his laces through it and ripping into the top corner. Don't think I've ever seen any other City player hit the ball harder.
Finally - Kells put through on goal, 50/50 with the keeper. If the keeper got it first, Tony would continue his run and 'accidently' body check the keeper sending him flying. Queue much protesting and a sheepish, shrugging Kells jogging back past the wagging finger of the ref. Much laughter from the terraces.
Wonderful, wonderful force of nature.
He must have been an absolute nightmare to play against
