Tom Kennedy (born June 24, 1985) signed for Rochdale in June having spent most of his career with the Manchester based, Bury. The 'attacking' left back was released by Bury manager Chris Casper after what can only be described as a conflict of personalities between Kennedy and Casper.

Kennedy has reportedly signed a two year contract at Spotland and replaces Alan Goodall, who has signed for Luton Town. He made 158 appearances for Bury scoring six times.

His father, Keith Kennedy, played for Bury while his uncle, Alan Kennedy was a defender for Newcastle F.C. and Liverpool F.C..
