Kevin Amankwaah signed for Town on a two-year deal from Championship side Swansea City in the summer of 2008.

At 6'1 he added height to the backline although was kept out of the line-up in the opening games of the 2008/09 season by Jack Smith.

However, Amankwaah soon made the right-back slot his own after being reunited with his former boss at Bristol City, Danny Wilson in early 2009.

The defender was a near ever-present in the latter half of Season 2008/2009, and after Smith was released in the summer, he cemented his place as first choice right-back at the start of Season 2009/2010.

38 consecutive appearances then followed before a hamstring injury and the arrival of Liverpool loanee Stephen Darby kept Amankwaah out of the side until the Play-Off Final against Millwall.

The 28-year-old put pen to paper on a two-year contract extension in January 2010, before making 24 appearances for Town in the 2010/2011 season.
