RIP John Ryden who died on Friday following illness. He played 80 games for Stanley in the mid-50s before a £10,000 transfer to Spurs in 1955:

I remember him playing for Stanley. There'll be one or two on here including Cashy, I'm sure who will remember him .Good player.

RIP John Ryden what a sad couple of days for old Stanley stalwarts, saw John many times in the 50s what a good centre half he turned out to be.

Yeh sorry to hear this news, class player, think one of Walt Galbraiths signings? R.I.P. John.

 

[Tommy McQueen]

Yes I remember him. A really good player along with Bob McNicol at full back.

 

[Bob Dobson]

One of my heroes when I was a young teenager. He probably played in t'Stanley's first floodlit game one Wednesday night.

 

[Wynonie Harris]

RIP John Ryden - (slightly) before my time, but I remember my old fella rated him highly.

Very sad, saw him many times for Stanley and in my opinion the best defender ever to wear a Stanley shirt, a class player. R.I.P.
