Condolences to John's family.

One thing I know, with Wilder steering the good ship United we're sure of even more Blades as we progress.

John was one of the nicest guys you could wish to meet and one of the most enthusiastic Blades.

I’ve known him for forty years. We used to travel on the same HQ Supporters Coach (coach 2) organised by Dorothy and Alan. We would have a chat when our paths crossed (as they always seemed to) after home games.

The man had no malice. He totally loved his football club. Just a genuine, lovely guy.

I’m always sad at the loss of a Blade but this one is a real shock and I’m a bit numbed by it. I’m thinking of his good mate Mick, his other friends (all fellow Blades I’m sure and family.

If anyone has funeral details, please let me know.

A fine tribute. Apologies if it has been a bad afternoon to cross swords with you on a different thread. He sounds like one of the good 'uns.

No apology needed at all. It was a laugh; not sword-crossing from my side. This is sword-crossing:

RIP John

I've DM'd Essex Blade but if any one else who knows him has any info on funeral etc please do direct message me - it would be massively appreciated. Known him from the lane for many years and you couldn't meet a nicer and more genuine guy.

Sat behind me on the Kop these past 12 years, his distinctive voice and words of encouragement for United will be missed. RIP Blade.

Very, very sad news.
A fine few words from Mr Pinchy that says it all.
Heaven's Blades XI has a right squad.
