Macatee was in the same class as murphy ,millward,watkins, mcguire and tomkins in the amateur game john was in a class of his own

A wonderful player, and with attitude ! I remember him mainly against the Bradford teams in the Conference, especially Dudley Hill. There were some good players around, but he was in a class of his own, with a demeanour to match. He sold the most audacious dummy I have ever seen one day at Dudley Hill where, he looked aghast at receiving the ball 30 yards from the opposition line, looking either side who to pass to, of course the players on either side were quickly covered, and John strolled over. A wonderful player !

I followed John for many a year while a great player
I found wen in his comfort zone he could run a game blindfolded but wen out ov it he was let’s say no as affective especially in YORKSHIRE
