After his playing career, he managed a number of clubs, including Tulsa Roughnecks of the North American Soccer League, whom he led to the league championship in 1983.


Playing career


He joined Birmingham City as a junior, going on to make 178 League appearances for them,[1] as well as being part of the team that won the 1962–63 Football League Cup.[2]

In November 1965, he was transferred to Nottingham Forest and became their captain. He transferred from Forest to Derby County in February 1970 for a fee of £100,000.[3] While at Derby he was part of the side that won the First Division in 1971–72.[4] His role on the field varied. During his career Hennessey accumulated a total of 400 league appearances, as well as being capped by Wales on 39 occasions.[1]


Coaching career


Hennessey was forced to retire at the end of the 1972–73 campaign and initially went into coaching. After taking a position (for the second time) as an assistant coach of Tulsa Roughnecks in 1980,[5] he took over as manager mid-season in 1981, replacing Charlie Mitchell.[6][7]

In 1983 Hennessey led Tulsa to the NASL championship, winning Soccer Bowl '83 by a 2–0 score over Toronto Blizzard.[8] However, the team's financial instability led him to resign after the season.[9]
