James could be the type of person, who, if you have never met before he would be a stranger and then within a brief period could flip that opinion, for me it was in the first session you were involved with in u21 and from that first day i grew to respect you and appreciate everything you brought to the players and the club. In the beginning of the U21 campaign last year it looked as if no one wanted to be involved until you came in and brought some of the current senior players under your wing to help guide us to the final that we unfortunately lost or else I would have been able to tell you and everyone in the captain’s speech how much all the players and myself appreciated and enjoyed every minute of being coached by you. 

i felt privileged to have you telling me to help with the minor team the year past and will take care of the information you sent to me regarding the drills etc. you provided me with and will miss coming home from a training or match with the minors to an action shot of myself with my coaching hat on. 

You have embedded a great legacy within in the club, one that will not be matched and there will not be a man as willing to go out of their way to help a person that needed anything regardless what it was. 

Still in complete shock having to write this, I will miss you James 

RIP
