Johnny King

On Wednesday evening, we heard the sad news that Johnny King had passed away.

Johnny was a true legend of the club. A superb manager, player and gentleman to the end. Every fan of this club through Johnny's time here will have fond memories of the quality of football, the ascent of the football league, or simply the way that he spoke.

We were so pleased that Johnny was able to attend the unveiling of his statue and associated events, and to see the warmth with which he is still remembered at Prenton Park.

At this time, the trust would like to pass on our warmest condolences to Johnny's family. We will work with the club on a fitting tribute to the man.

We will leave you with the words that Johnny will always be associated with:

"I can't promise anyone success, but I can promise them a trip to the moon"

RIP Johnny King
