Indeed RIP. I met him as a school kid when he came to Buckstone Primary and took us for training with Graeme Love. Very nice guy and organised a trip for us to ER.

Can remember John being a coach at ER in the 90s. Haven't much recollection of him sadly, but always sorry to hear of the passing of someone who played a part in the rich history of Hibernian.
Condolences to John's family and friends.
RIP

Was honestly gutted to hear this today. The man was a legend! Took the summer hibs training club at the jack Kane every year when I was growing up and I more genuine man you’ll struggle to meet.
Rest in peace big fella, thanks for the memories!

Sad news. His summer coaching classes were always very good and he was a nice guy. He was an excellent goalkeeping coach into the bargain.

Very sad to hear this. Was a big part in my early years of football. Firstly with 'Goalgetters' then with Dunedin Boys Club. Used to give out tickets for Hibs games too. Remember him as a really nice guy and good coach.

This is sad news.
He ran a goalkeepers course at woodmill high school. on the 1st day My lad turned up in his hibs goalkeepers top and some other lad turned up in a rangers top. he chucked a tracksuit top at the lad with the rangers top on and said
' put this on coz you're no wearing that to my class'
pointed at my boy and said
' you're fine though'
RIP John
