John entertained us with tales of his days playing with fellow Wolves legends Derek Dougan, Steve Kingdon and Danny Hegan amongst others. While at the Club he experienced both ups and downs - with UEFA cup run excitement, League Cup victories and relegation to the lower leagues. It's clear that John thinks that the modern game has lost something in its focus on avoiding relegation at all costs and he looks for a return to the time when cup glory mattered to both players and fans.
Originally from Warrington John's connection with Wolverhampton spans 42 years now and he described to us not only the sense of privilege in playing for the Wolves but also his gratitude for the way in which its fans have and continue to treat him.
John is still involved with football and through his involvement with Pitchcare he gave us something of an insight in how technology affects every aspect of the game - even down to blade of grass. We're grateful to John for sharing his stories with us and wish him continued success.
