 Player Background
 
Scoring over two century of goals in an amateur football career spanning fifteen years in the competitive scene both locally and abroad at school and club level, John is the veteran in Vipers' strikers department. Though he may have lost half a yard of pace since his hey day he still possesses great ball control, while his good finishing makes him a constant threat in any opponent's penalty box.
 
Having suffered a serious ankle injury in 2007, John has made a remarkable recovery to become
a regular goal scorer in each of the club's seasons. Season 2009/10 was John's best yet as he
notched up 60 goals in league and cup matches to claim all of EFL, ESPZEN and Vipers golden
boots, impressing NFL Div 1 champions SCC (NFL) to sign him up in April 2010.
