Kenneth Henry Clements[2] (born 9 April 1955 in Middleton, Lancashire) is an English former footballer who played as a defender in the Football League for Manchester City, in two spells, between 1971 and 1979 and between 1985 and 1988, Oldham Athletic, Bury and Shrewsbury Town,[3] and was briefly player-manager of League of Ireland club Limerick.[4] He made 282 appearances for Manchester City in all competitions, scoring twice.[2] He was an unused substitute when Manchester City won the 1976 Football League Cup Final.

Before beginning his playing career with Manchester City, Clements was an assistant groundsman at Maine Road.[5] After retiring from football, Clements opened a driving school in the Oldham area, and resumed his interest in painting.[6] He now works as a chauffeur for Manchester property tycoon Aneel Mussarat at MCR Property Ltd in Rusholme, Manchester, UK.[citation needed]
