John Sheridan, behind Tony Fisher he is the second most legendary man that then re-shaped the fortunes of DRLFC. Rest in peace gentle big man !!

Superb man who dragged Donny out of the doldrums on a minuscule budget. Anyone who can bring talent like Tony Kemp to our humble team must go down in our folklore. Will always stay in my Dons memories.

Nobody has turned the dons round like he did,
We would still be the laughing stock of rugby
If it wasn't for him.
True legend rip.

Doncaster Rugby League Club is saddened to hear of the death of their former coach John Sheridan who died earlier this week at the age of 78.

Pontefract born Sheridan played in over 300 games for Castleford Tigers between 1955 and 1966 and returned to serve as the Tigers head coach from 1972 to 1973.

He became head coach of the Dons in 1984 when the club was underperforming and still reeling from the 1980 season when Yorkshire TV made the infamous Another Bloody Sunday documentary.

The club had no money when Sheridan came to Tattersfield but still managed to put together one of the Dons best squads and went on to win an impressive 30 of the 44 games they played under him.

The club would like to offer their condolences to his family at this sad time.
