Early life and career

Born in Enfield, Middlesex, Kilkenny moved to Australia with his family at the age of four, and grew up in Brisbane.He also worked for a short while at Homebase. When 7, he played for a club in west Brisbane called St. Catherines United Football Club. St Cats is best known for defeating Westminster in the 2008 QCSA grand final senior Mens Divison 5. A promising schoolboy footballer, he captained the Queensland schools' representative team. When Kilkenny was eleven, the family returned to England to maximise his chances of making a career in the game. At twelve, he was invited to join Arsenal's youth development scheme, and while a student at Ravenscroft School, Barnet, he played for Middlesex Schools and appeared for Arsenal's under-17 team.[2] In July 2002 he began a two-year scholarship programme in Arsenal's Academy.

By the 2003–04 season, he had graduated to Arsenal's under-19 team[3] and once been an unused substitute for the reserves,[4] and had played international football for Ireland under-19s, qualifying via Irish paternal grandparents, and for England under-18s.[5] However, he became unhappy at Arsenal, chose to leave the club, and after trials with clubs including Aston Villa, Manchester City[5] and Leicester City,[6] he joined Birmingham City on a free transfer in January 2004.

Club career

Birmingham City and loans

Kilkenny signed a two-and-a-half-year contract with Birmingham. The club's academy director felt he had "the ability to play at the highest level", and prioritised adding a "work ethic and competitiveness" to his "great technique".[7] The player travelled with the first team for the game at Charlton Athletic in April 2004,[8] but was not included in the matchday squad.[9] Perceived as not ready for the first team at Premier League level, he was loaned to League One club Oldham Athletic in November 2004 to gain first-team experience.[10] He made his debut in the Football League as a second-half substitute in Oldham's 3–2 win at home to Barnsley on 20 November, and scored two goals in his second game, a 3–1 win away to Bradford City, four days later.[11] He played a full part in Oldham's season: he took the free kick which led to the winning goal against Premier League Manchester City in the FA Cup,[12] and ended up as winner of the club's Players' Young Player of the Season award.[13]

At the start of the 2005–06 season he became part of the Birmingham first-team squad, though manager Steve Bruce warned him that he would not easily find his way into the team.[14] On 20 September 2005, he made his Birmingham first-team debut in the League Cup away at Scunthorpe United, as a 26th-minute substitute to replace the injured Muzzy Izzet.[15] Four days later, with six other midfielders unavailable through injury or suspension,[16] he made his full home debut against Liverpool in the Premier League, in which he was sent off late in the game for handling the ball on the goal-line, thus giving Liverpool a penalty and a 2–2 draw. Despite his dismissal, he received words of encouragement from team mates Mikael Forssell and Mario Melchiot for his performance,[14] and went on to make 25 appearances in all competitions, mainly as substitute, as Birmingham were relegated to the Football League Championship.[17] The following season Kilkenny's appearances were infrequent; he started only two games, both in the League Cup.[18] The player became frustrated; while part of the first-team squad, he was rarely part of the first team, yet Bruce was reluctant to allow him out on loan.[19]

It was announced on 30 July 2007 that Kilkenny would again join Oldham on loan until January 2008.[20] The move was blocked following the collapse of Birmingham's purchase of Hossam Ghaly, but was confirmed a few days later.[21] His last match before he returned to Birmingham was an influential performance as Oldham beat Leeds United 3–1 to become the first team that season to win a League game at Elland Road.[22][23]

Leeds United

2008-09 Season

On 4 January 2008 Kilkenny signed for League one team Leeds United on an emergency loan, with a view to ensuring his availability for the next day's game prior to completing a permanent transfer the following week.[24] He made his debut in the 3–0 win over Northampton Town, putting in an impressive performance to get the man of the match award.[1] Kilkenny signed a three-and-a-half year permanent contract with Leeds on 7 January for a fee of £150,000.[25][26] He scored his first goal for the club in their 2–0 win against Bournemouth in March 2008.[citation needed] Leeds went on to reach the play-off Final that season but lost 1–0 against Doncaster Rovers.[citation needed] He was then called up to the Australian Olympic team during the summer and missed all of pre season training for Leeds as a result.[citation needed] After a period out of the team and the sacking of Gary McAllister Kilkenny regained a spot in the Leeds midfield under the stewardship of new manager Simon Grayson late in the 2008–09 season.[citation needed]

His 43rd minute goal against Yeovil on 10 March 2009 was a leading contender for the goal of the season.[citation needed] He then followed this up with goals in the 3–2 win against Crewe Alexandra and the 3–1 win against Tranmere Rovers.[citation needed] Kilkenny was part of the Leeds team who were knocked out of the play-off semi finals,[27] with him being injured and having to be substituted in the first half of the second leg against Millwall at Elland Road.[citation needed] Many observers[who?] saw this as a big turning point in the tie, as Leeds lost the fluidity of Kilkenny's passing ability.[citation needed]

2009-10 Season

Doncaster made their interest in signing Kilkenny public during the summer but Leeds knocked back any approaches for Kilkenny.[citation needed] After missing the entire pre season of 2009–10 through the injury he sustained against Millwall (the second pre season in a row he missed), Kilkenny found himself trying to regain fitness and a place on the bench for Leeds once the season was in full flow.[citation needed] With seven subs required for the 2009–10 season Kilkenny originally found himself used mainly as a substitute in games earlier in the season, coming on in games to try to make an impact.[citation needed]

Kilkenny started his first league game of the season in the top of the table 0–0 draw against Charlton Athletic and also started the next game in the Football League Trophy win against Darlington.[citation needed] He scored his first goal of the season for Leeds in the 3–1 win against Grimsby Town, the goal rounding off a fine passing move and a one-two with Jermaine Beckford, before calmly stroking the ball into the bottom right corner.[citation needed] Kilkenny also received the man of the match award in the same game.[citation needed] He scored in the game against Brighton & Hove Albion, making it two goals in two games.[citation needed] He also provided an assist for Beckford and got his second man of the match award in a row.[citation needed] Kilkenny scored his third goal of the season against his former club Oldham; the goal was assisted by Max Gradel and it was Kilkenny's third goal in his last five games.[citation needed] Kilkenny's fourth goal of the season came against Accrington Stanley with a rare headed goal, and carrying on his impressive goalscoring form.[citation needed] He gained yet another assist for Leeds when he set up Beckford's first goal against Hartlepool United.[citation needed]

Kilkenny played against Manchester United when Leeds won 1–0 away at Old Trafford on 3 January in the FA Cup.[28] He was at the heart of the midfield for Leeds when they earned a 2–2 draw against Tottenham Hotspur in the FA Cup on 23 January 2010.[citation needed] He was substituted against Swindon Town, and was omitted from Leeds' lineup against Colchester United after being ruled out by injury.[citation needed] The injury also forced him to miss the FA Cup replay at Elland Road against Tottenham Hotspur and the league 1 game against Hartlepool United.[citation needed] Kilkenny returned to the bench for Leeds after injury against Carlisle United in the Football League Trophy Northern Final second leg.[citation needed] He came on as a second half substitute and put in an impressive performance for Leeds in a 3–2 victory, also having a scuffle with his teammate Max Gradel during injury time, although Leeds ended up losing the tie after losing the penalty shootout 6–5, with Kilkenny converting one of the penalties for Leeds.[citation needed]

Kilkenny came back into the starting lineup for the next game against Leyton Orient after fully recovering from his injury.[citation needed] He played an instrumental part as Leeds were promoted to the Football League Championship after finishing in 2nd place in League One and thus earning automatic promotion.[citation needed]

2010-11 Season

Kilkenny scored his first goal of the 2010–11 season, in the carling cup match against Lincoln City when he scored a penalty for Leeds. Kilkenny has gained several assists for Leeds in the first few weeks of the season, including two assists for Jonathan Howson and Davide Somma in Leeds 5–2 defeat against Barnsley [29] After being an ever present for Leeds, Kilkenny was named on the bench in the game against Sheffield United. November 2010 Kilkenny entered contract negotiations with Leeds over extending his contract[30] November 2010 Kilkenny was subject to interest from other clubs who are monitoring his contract situation at Leeds.[31]

On 21 December 2010 Kilkenny revealed that his desire to sign a new contract and to stay at Leeds United.[32] Kilkenny was named in the final 23 man squad for Australia's squad for the Asian Cup on 27 December, meaning he will miss an entire month of the season for Leeds including the FA Cup tie against his old club Arsenal.[33] On 7 January, Kilkenny revealed he was gutted to be missing the FA Cup tie, but he would be watching it whilst on international duty for Australia.[34]

Kilkenny confirmed that he wanted to stay at Leeds on 10 January, beyond his initial contract, and was hoping to sign a new deal at the club.[35] After missing several games for Leeds by playing for Australia at the Asian Cup, Kilkenny returned to the Leeds squad and was named on the bench against Hull City.[36] Before re-gaining his place in the starting 11 in the following game vs Bristol City. Kilkenny scored his first league goal and just his second goal of the season with a hard effort from outside the box against Preston North End.[37] 11 May, Kilkenny announced that he would like to stay at Leeds as long as Leeds wanted to keep him.[38] Leeds chairman, Ken Bates announced on 12 May, that Kilkenny was set to leave the club after the club and player couldn't agree on a new contract extension[39] Kilkenny revealed that when he leaves Leeds that he would like to stay in Europe after reports had linked him to a move to the Australian A-League.[40] Leeds announced on their official website on 27 May that Kilkenny had failed to respond to Leeds' offer of a new contract and that he would most likely be leaving the club, so that they could sort out their other transfer targets.[41][42]

Bristol City

On 16 June 2011, Kilkenny showed an interest in moving to Leeds' Yorkshire rivals Hull City.[43] On 24 June, Kilkenny signed for fellow Championship team Bristol City on a three year contract after turning down Leeds' new offer and also several Championship teams interest in him.[44]

Kilkenny said before the game against Leeds that he never wanted to leave Leeds.[45] Kilkenny returned to his prior club Leeds United on 17 September when Bristol City came to Elland Road, with Kilkenny scoring his first goal for Bristol in the same game.[46] Kilkenny revealed before the game that he felt Leeds Chairman Ken Bates has always got something to say and sometimes he needs to keep quiet.[47]

International career

Kilkenny was born in England but having moved to Australia at a young age,where he grew up, he was eligible to play internationally for Australia, England and Ireland.[48] He previously played for England Under 20's, but shortly before the 2006 FIFA World Cup he committed to play for Australia.[citation needed] He was among a group of young players, selected by manager Guus Hiddink, who trained with the Australian squad in Holland and Germany prior to the tournament.[citation needed] Kilkenny made his international debut for Australia on 7 June 2006, coming on as a late substitute in their 3–1 victory in a World Cup warm-up game against Liechtenstein in Ulm, Germany.

In 2007 he was a part of the Australian Olyroos for the 2008 Beijing Olympics qualifying campaign.

After Leeds' win over Manchester United, Australia have sent scouts to watch Kilkenny with regards to Australia's World Cup Squad with the match providing to be a high profile game to put Kilkenny back on the World Cup radar, however Kilkenny wasn't selected by Pim Verbeek for the World Cup Squad.[50]
