Kenneth Oliver
Forward (1963-1964)
A hard-working inside-forward who provided good goalscoring support for Charlie Livesey in the unsuccessful 1963/64 promotion chase. His first professional engagement was with Sunderland, but he had to drop to a lower division before getting his Football League career started at Oakwell – and in fact every one of his League outings was at Third Division level. Ken Oliver was finished as a player when a kneecap had to be removed by surgery in the summer of 1967.
