I didn't know John well, but he is responsible for bringing into my life - and my son's - that little bit of weekly fun that is the TS Fantasy Football League. We were told that JC was the guv'nor of FFL and kept an eye on the multiple transfer dealings of the mighty GAY DAD - to no avail, we were all duly thrashed and JC won the League last season at a canter... I had sponsored the League and his Champions cheque has been donated to his Tribute Fund - with many thanks for all the happy little moments that you brought to all our lives by getting us involved, which will no doubt continue for years to come... Yes, because of you John, Derby County v Sunderland now actually matters..! We will miss you..
