Alfred James Conn (born 5 April 1952) is a Scottish former professional footballer, who was the first post-World War II player to play for both Old Firm rivals Rangers and Celtic.
Conn is the son of the footballer Alfie Conn Sr., who was one of the 'Terrible Trio' of Heart of Midlothian in the 1950s.
Conn made his senior debut for Rangers against Dundalk in the Fairs Cup tournament in November 1968.[1] He was part of the Rangers team which lifted the European Cup Winners' Cup in 1972 and also helped the Ibrox team win the Scottish Cup in 1973, scoring their second goal in a 3–2 final victory over Celtic at Hampden Park.
He played for Tottenham Hotspur football club from 1974 to 1977. He was the last player to be signed by their manager Bill Nicholson. Despite playing only 35 games and scoring six goals, he was a huge fan favourite, dubbed the "King of White Hart Lane" after scoring a hat-trick on his debut in a 5–2 win at Newcastle. In the final game of the 1974–75 season at White Hart Lane, Tottenham Hotspur had to beat Leeds United to prevent relegation from the First Division. Conn scored a goal, set up two others and even sat on the ball in a 4–2 victory.[2]
When at Spurs he made two appearances for the Scotland national football team at the end of the season in 1975.
He later, in 1977, won another Scottish Cup medal with Celtic when they defeated Rangers 1–0 in the final.[3] [4]
Conn Jr. followed in his father's footsteps by signing for the Tynecastle club in 1980, following a short spell playing indoor football in the United States with Pittsburgh Spirit.[5]
Conn wound down his career with short spells at Blackpool and Motherwell before retiring in 1983.
On 5 February 2007 Conn was included in the Rangers F.C. Hall of Fame.[6]
