Son, Husband, Father of Kevin, Grandfather and Friend of many! Mocking those who have passed is cheap! I hope you make your mother proud.
I too was an ankle biter when John Bond was in charge of our beloved Canaries, yet he will always be remembered by all of us for what he did. RIP Mr Bond and my thoughts are with his family and friends.
Very well said.
Very well said.
we are remembering him on our board as well as he managed us for a short while...RIP bondy top manager and even better top man....
Not mocking Bond you muppet, it was in response to swords post
I put my real post regarding John on page one and started up a thread in memory of him on the QPR board
Really sorry this is late but...
From EVERY single fan on the Stoke board our sincere condolencies to John Bonds family and friends. I remember him as a player and a brilliant Manager too! Great man as others have said. He was a gentleman. Which is very rare these days in the crazy world of football.
May he R.I.P.

Put Norwich on the map. Along the way brought 'good to watch' football to Carrow Road and was a character of national renown

Just a shame BBC couldn't see fit to even mention it in the evening news and radio bulletins. Don't want to start a big debate but it really seems that if it's not about one of the big 4 then they don't think it matters these days.
Nice to see henry Winter paying tribute properly though.
He was manager when I first attended Carrow Road. I loved him, he encouraged entertaining football and we had a fantastic team at that time including of course the famous double act of MacDougall and Boyer. He brought charisma to the club and I always remember following a win against Arsenal he wrote in an article that great though it was it wasn't like the old Arsenal, a testament I guess to how far we had progressed because of course for most of my life at that time we were a second division outfit and the top flight was still a novelty. Great days, great guy, John, thank you and rest in peace.
Just re-visited this thread I started back in June. Bondy's squad circa '74 ...

Tony (cozy)Powell was a really cultured half back with greta distribution. He always seemed to have time.
Ken Brown, who is the same age as Bonzo but looks bloody good on it, said all Bonzo wanted to do at training was tactics for attacking. Even though he was a defender as a player he loved attacking football.
I will never forget our 4th goal against Stoke in his first season with us. I have never seen a more effective free kick than the one that day scored by John Sissons. They could only use it once as it was so complicated but so brilliant that the opposition would have been aware of it in the future.
Now its just shoot or try and curve it around the wall. Very liitle imagination at all.

All I remember about tony powell is that everyone else had time on their hands: waiting for the ball to come back down to earth, I remember getting a strain in my nect as an eight year old watching him boot it out of defence.
Sorry to hear of John Bonds death.......Met him a few times during his footballing days and a couple of times while he was at Bournemouth. A real gentleman and had a brilliant footballing brain. My heart goes out to his family........RIP John god bless!
Nice thread this, My old man liked Bond because he was often in the National news and liked the media. I didn't hear anything on Five Live about it in the news (may have missed it), which would be a shame because he was certainly of prestige when managing.
