Duncan McKenzie (born 10 June 1950) is an English former footballer who played as a striker in the Football League for Nottingham Forest, Mansfield Town, Leeds United, Everton, Chelsea and Blackburn Rovers in the 1970s,[1] in Belgium for Anderlecht,[1] in the North American Soccer League for the Tulsa Roughnecks and the Chicago Sting,[2] and for Ryoden in Hong Kong.
The highlight of this run was the 4th Round game against Manchester City on 27 January 1974, when he made three goals and scored the fourth in a 4–1 thrashing of the First Division giants.
Initially, he attracted media attention for his achievements outside of the game, which included the ability to jump over a Mini and to throw a golf ball the length of a football pitch.
However, despite his skills, he could be an immensely frustrating player to play with; whilst he reserved his finest moments for big games, he was often anonymous against lesser opposition.
It was this inconsistency that caused him to be sold to Belgian side Anderlecht at the end of the 1975–76 season, winning the 1976 European Super Cup, but he returned to England in December 1976 when he signed for Everton.
