Already an experienced campaigner when he started his Welsh Premier career aged 34, Ken McKenna scored 38 goals in 35 matches for Conwy as he finished his first season as the league’s top scorer for 1994-95.

After three successful seasons for the Tangerines, he moved to Bangor City at the start of the 1997-98 season and scored in the Welsh Cup final against Connah’s Quay as the Citizens lifted the cup for the first time in 23 years.

McKenna moved to Llansantffraid to join TNS the following season and played a vital role as the Saints clinched their first Welsh Premier championship in 1999-2000.

A year later he took the reins as manager and led the Saints to three consecutive league titles from 2004-07, as well as clinching the Welsh Cup in 2005, the League Cup in 2006 and the FAW Premier Cup in 2007.

Under McKenna’s charge TNS campaigned in Europe for seven successive seasons, before he left the club in 2008 to manage in the English pyramid with Merseyside-based club Cammell Laird.

During his time as a player in the Welsh Premier McKenna scored 127 goals in 149 appearances… 89 of those coming in his three seasons at Conwy, 18 for Bangor City and 20 for the Saints.
