I havn't seen this posted so far on here....
Sorry guys but one of our all time legends has sadly passed away
It would be great if the supporters from the Wigan club could take the time to pass on your thoughts about him at this very sad time for his family
The word "Legend" is often handed out all too frequently now a days, but not in John's case

I have already posted on the Leeds forum about this guy.
Very sad news indeed.
One of my memories of Holmes was, we had just signed John Ferguson who scored a blistering try at Headingley on the South stand side in the first half IIRC.
Then that bugger John Holmes pops up and scores the winner in the second half !
He wasn't that fast, but like all true greats, seemed to have all the time in the World.
I hear there will be a minutes silence at Headingley on Friday. A good servant for Leeds,Great Britain, and the game in general.

Anybody who played 625 games for a single club over 3 decades is a legend. Never saw him play but my dad said he was a good 'un. Played Stand Off for Britain in '72. Sad news. Rest in Peace John.
