Kevin Twaddle (born October 31, 1971 in Edinburgh) is a Scottish former professional footballer.
A forward, Twaddle began his career with St. Johnstone in 1994. He remained at McDiarmid Park for two years, making 51 league appearances and finding the net on ten occasions.
In 1996 he joined Raith Rovers in an £82,000 deal. He made 32 appearances for Rovers in two years, scoring four goals.
Morton came in for his services in 1998 for a fee of £150,000, but his stay on the west coast was a short one as Premier League club Motherwell made a successful bid for him, again for £150,000.
After three years at Fir Park, during which he played mainly as a winger, Twaddle signed for Hearts, the club he supported as a boy, in June 2002.[1] He only played eight league games for the Jambos in his twelve months with the Edinburgh side.
In 2003 he joined St. Mirren, but again his stay was a short one, and he moved on after making only three appearances.
Twaddle joined Scottish junior club Penicuik Athletic in the summer of 2004.[2][3]
