Peter Kane

Hi all. I hope you don't mind me posting here. My Dad Peter Kane played for Crewe and other teams many moons ago. He now sadly has Alzheimer's and I am looking for memories to talk to him about, if anyone has any good stories? Thanks in advance 😊

Remember when he played for us, mid sixties i think, no stories about him just remember him being a good player!! sorry to hear he's not well all the best to you and him .

All the best to both of you.

I believe he was at Crewe from Jan 1964 til Jun 1967.

Couple of things to talk about for you ....

In the 63-64 season, Crewe finished 3rd in the (then 3rd Division) - just missing out on promotion.

And in the 64-65 season, Terry Harkin scored (a club record) 34 goals.

Good (tidy) Player, by the way !!

I can just about remember him, he was a strong inside forward with a pretty good goalscoring record for us. I'm pretty sure that he was my favourite player at that time and must have made us pretty potent when playing alongside Terry Harkin.
I noticed that on 10th October 1959 he represented a Great Britain team against a Caribbean X1 at Portman Road. The result was 7-3 with Peter bagging a hattrick. That must have been an extremely proud moment for him.

Aww thank you guys for taking the time to reply! I will read out all the comments to my Dad. Thank you for the well wishes too 🙏
