PROFILE
Dick White's understudy in the team who only got a look in for one game. It was the
only League match White missed during the whole campaign and he was to make the position
his own during the next season too. But just as White's career was finishing, Ron Yeats
arrived at Anfield and it was clear that John had no future with the club. He left for
Port Vale in August 1961 and made nearly 200 League appearances for the Potteries club
before moving on again, this time to Doncaster Rovers. He did well in the lower divisions
but sadly got killed in a car crash the day after his 30th birthday. |
