Happy birthday Mr Trinity.

Happy birthday JT.

Great to see he is still associated with the club, just a shame that his Eastmoor mate, Nigel Bell isn't

Belly has been down for some of the Trinity Heritage get togethers.
I don't know him but he doesn't seem the type to hog the limelight.

A true Trinity man, many happy ones JT.

Happy Birthday Mr T, too young to see him play but he's been runnung on that pitch with the water bottles for as long as I can remember, long may it continue.

Belly was in the bar at one of the recent home games. We had a 5 minute chat with him.

Happy Birthday Johnny.

Great bloke! Coached me for years down at Wakefield City and makes a great water boy for the club (lol)

Check out the Trin v Australia match where JT has a hell of a scrap with Benny Elias - my favourite memory from JT's playing career.

Happy birthday JT, thanks for being a great servant. I often remember seeing him having a beer in The Flanshaw on Christmas Day, just before playing Fev on Boxing Day - oh the days of being semi-professional

Wonder if there is any player active in the game with one club longer than JT? Its a hell of a record and deserves reconition imo.

Red, White & Blue in this man's veins, happy birthday & all the best JT !

Happy Birthday Johnny. A great and loyal servant to the club. Long may you keep those water bottles flowing. A true Flansher Lad !!!

Johnny T - 60 today...Neil Fox 80 tomorrow ...and Trinity1315 70 on Sunday...happy birthday Gents

Blast! you remembered. I'll have a nip of Glenfiddich I found!

Sorry originally from Eastmoor but still a great servant to Trinity Happy Birthday old lad

True Lupset, but Spent many years at Acute Terrace off Flansher lane.

Played a lot of junior rugby with Jonny ont moor a good lad always well respected

Happy birthday Johnny. One of the greatest stalwarts our club has ever known. Cut through him and I'll better it says trinity. Had the pleasure of a one of performance as trinity physio in 1998 and chatted with him quite a bit on the journey to Villeneuve. Great memories
PS wouldn't like to be one of the physio team at the moment! Hope you can perform the miracles that are always expected!!

Wonder if he recalls being poked in the eye by Bob Eccles at Wilderspool, might even have been in the Challenge Cup. He ended up in the neighbouring bed to me at Pinders for a few days. Had some lovely pork and mint sauce sarnies brought in. Told me that, as he was leaving the pitch, a Warrington fan observed "About time someone ted you Thompson!" (JT quote) Had soime big lads visiting him. Oddly enough I had loads of folk wanting to visit me suddenly!
Happy Birthday JT.

Just wondering with Foxy being 80 and having had a very long career and JT being 60 and coming up through the ranks did they ever play together?

No.
Johnny might have played against Neil when at Bradford in his last year but certainly not at Wakefield.
I guess JT might have been there as a junior when Neil was there. But unlikely.

Just checked.
Wakefield played Bradford in JTs debut season when Neil played but JT wasn't selected for that game.

JT made his debut at Headingley on Boxing Day 78.
John Holmes, David Ward and Les Dyl era at Headingley.
He was sub and came on to play second row along side the great Trevor Skerret. With Topliss leading the team of course.

That’s a shame as there would have been a certain poetry to it.
