Because he wants paying well as per usual, you’d think at his age he would have earned enough not to put up silly wage demands. Go retire John as you can’t take your fortune with you.

I spoke to John at Tommy Horan’s funeral about him coming back, and he said ‘no one has asked me yet but never say never’.

The thing is, as much as John is a legend and I love him dearly, he has his own scouting team, so when he leaves, his whole network leaves and the club is left without. We have seen this happen repeatedly. Hopefully with Anwar’s connections the club can build its own scouting network that doesn’t fall apart if a key person moves on.

And if John wants to earn money, good luck to him. It’s an expensive old world out there.

When he left Southend recently the fans were not too upset as they thought his recruitment was disappointing. Having said that, it seems that John Still is
a man in demand so good luck to him.
