Iv bagged him,asked for his head,but in hindsight it was pure frustration,i doubt if any coach in the super league era has had to work under such conditions,deaths of players,aussie players goin home,administration and these are the public problems we all know about(never mind behind the scenes).I just wonder how far he could have carried us in the cc if we d beat cas.cos since then its been a slow death.So all the best john in whatever you do and i hope its fresh start that works out for all concerned.

Thanks John and good luck in the future. I will never forget the Cas game as long as i live it was a special night. Would also like to say a big thanks to John for something that happened a few years back. I had gone to the away game at Salford and we won easily. After the game i consumed a fair few shandys and missed the coach home. I was chatting with Adam Watene and trying to blag a lift home and to my amazement John overheard my predicament and let me travel home on the team coach which was amazing and made my birthday even better. A true gent!

I feel we have all been a bit over critical with what has happened this year, me included and this is natural as we all as Wakefield fans want to see good entertaining RL, but how many coaches could have done this with the players we had available?

We sometimes forget what the mans done at this club .GOOD LUCK JOHN ALL THE BEST

Many thanks John for taking us through thick and thin over the past five years.
Enabled Wakefield to box above their weight.
Cheers

I'll add my name to all of the above sentiments.

Gone stale for me and even a bit sour this last year/18 months, but on the whole done us proud.

Great escape was fantastic and deserves limitless praise for that, but its time to move on now and get behind the new man.

The king is dead, long live the king!

Gave me one of my greatest nights as a Wakey fan and helped the club survive through its most difficult period in history, Should be some kind of life member for me. Thanks JK. Just as a side point when JK was announced as coach i was devestated, i thought it was a shocking appointment at the time and he has proven many wrong with some great times over the the last few years. JK I love you man.

Done a great job for us, under some very difficult conditions. WTW would probably not be in SL if not for JK. Thank you and good luck. Deserves a good send off tonight.

Thanks John, sad to see you go. You saved the club from the brink, and went on to build a team capable of beating anyone on their day, obviously external factors hindered the continued success of that particular squad (start of 2010). Losing all of those players was a bitter blow for us and I suppose we never really bounced back from their losses. In fact the club plummeted after that point with the Public Enquiry and Administration.

I still honestly think JK is a great coach, will always have fond memories of his time here.

I think everyone in the crowd 2nite should join in and sing there's only Jonny Kear.and potetially lift the new roof of the stadium before its even built.

My favourite RL person in the whole world. All the best for the future.
