Playing career

He made his debut at The Dell playing at inside-left against Preston North End on 27 November 1965, when George O'Brien was ill with hepatitis.Шаблон:Sfn He scored the Saints' second goal with a "brave header" in a 5–2 victory,Шаблон:Sfn and retained his place in the forward line for the next three matches before losing his place to Norman Dean.Шаблон:Sfn Southampton finished the 1965–66 season as runners-up in the Second Division, gaining promotion to the top division.Шаблон:Sfn
Kemp spent two years in the reserves as a forward before being converted into a wing-half with goal-scoring ability in March 1968.Шаблон:Sfn On 24 August 1968, he returned to the first team replacing Hugh Fisher at right-half, scoring the opening goal in a 2–1 victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers.Шаблон:Sfn He retained his place for the remainder of the season, making a total of 37 appearances with four goals as Southampton finished seventh and qualified for European football for the first time, in the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup.Шаблон:Sfn Although Kemp made one appearance in the Fairs Cup, he lost his place to Fisher in November, with his final first-team appearance coming on 31 March 1970.Шаблон:Sfn
Known as "Fiery Fred"Шаблон:Sfn and described as "a delightfully tippy-toed runner", Kemp's "crowd-pleasing surges down the right wing" were not popular with his teammates, including Joe Kirkup and Ken Jones, who considered that the team needed the more defensively-minded Fisher at right-half to allow Terry Paine the freedom to operate on the right wing. Paine himself considered that Kemp's runs "didn't warrant all that energy"[1] and, while exciting the crowd, they became "infectious" and began to "rub off on the other players" to the detriment of the team.Шаблон:Sfn Following the signing of Brian O'Neil in the summer of 1970, Kemp was no longer required and was sold to Blackpool in November for a fee of £35,000.Шаблон:Sfn
Kemp stayed only a year at Blackpool before moving on to Halifax Town in December 1971.Шаблон:Sfn He stayed at The Shay for Шаблон:Frac years, during which time he was a virtual ever-present making 111 league appearances with 10 goals.Шаблон:Sfn
In the 1974 close season, Kemp was signed by Colin Addison for Hereford United but before the season started Addison was replaced by John Sillett who recruited Terry Paine as his assistant. Kemp considered Paine as his "nemesis" and, after only 13 appearances, left the club to rejoin Addison in South Africa at Durban City in March 1975.Шаблон:Sfn By the following spring, Kemp was back in England and joined Telford United as team captain for a season before his retirement in the summer of 1977.Шаблон:Sfn
Later career
While at Telford, Kemp played charity football in Wolverhampton and worked part-time selling furniture to offices and schools. The business expanded and Kemp's son-in-law, the former Fulham midfielder, John Marshall joined the family business.Шаблон:Sfn Kemp now lives close to Wolves' training base at Compton.[1]
