Just saw this on SSN and, as he was one of ours thought it deserved its own thread.

Get well soon John.

Best wishes to John. An under-rated player for us in the 1970s and for all his faults he seemed to have a genuine affection for the Villa while he was manager.

probably a lot will disagree, but legend to me. As said above, he's a villa man.

All the best JG.

Only remember his coaching rather than his playing days, but he's still well liked by Villa supporters of my generation.

He sometimes gave big Ron a run for his money with the one liners!

(e.g.) christening Southgate "the ornament" for his lack of goals from attacking set pieces.

get well soon.
