Everything about Terry Hibbitt totally explained

Terence Arthur "Terry" Hibbitt (December 1, 1947August 5, 1994) was an English football player, who was on the books at Leeds United, Newcastle United and Birmingham City during his career. His position was midfielder. His brother Kenny Hibbitt also established himself as a successful footballer.
   Born in Bradford, West Yorkshire, Hibbitt began his career at local Yorkshire club Leeds United, who were particularly strong at the time, with twelve full internationals in the first team. This wealth of ability meant Hibbitt found in difficult to retain a first team place and was looking for a new club. Newcastle United's manager Joe Harvey bid £30,000 for his services in 1971, which was accepted by the club; he officially joined the Magpies on August 1 of that year. His debut came two weeks later, in an away match against Crystal Palace. This was incidentally the same game in which Malcolm Macdonald made his first appearance for Newcastle. Both of these players are still held in high regard by many Newcastle supporters.
   Whilst at Newcastle, Hibbitt was appreciated for his workrate and overall contribution to the team. Although he scored just fourteen goals during his time at the club, he made many assists and was noted for his accurate crosses with his left foot. He moved to Birmingham City in 1975, where he enjoyed three years at the club and made more than 100 appearances. He returned to Newcastle to see out the end of his career, staying at the club up to his retirement in 1981, after failing to recover from a knee injury. However he briefly came out of retirement in 1986 to appear for Gateshead. He was also a coach during his time at Gateshead.
   Hibbitt later owned a pub in the North-East. He contracted cancer and died in Newcastle upon Tyne in 1994 at the age of 47.
