"John has a wealth of experience to offer.  He is extremely innovative and very well connected throughout the world, and is someone who can be trusted to offer wise counsel."

"Readie played a leading role in the successful marketing campaign to launch Twenty20, which is now a global sporting phenomenon. He still can't bat though!"

"John... Thank you for all the help and support you gave me, to win the FEI Presidency. I have learnt so much from you in the last year."

"Peter - the only thing that surprises me about your brilliant coup against the bookies is that you are not wearing full West Ham kit (including shinpads) in that terrific photograph illustrating your Times Lawyer of the Week article today. Contrary to popular belief, nice guys often do win and it was a tonic to read about your success and to see it celebrated so charmingly in this profile."

"John is a highly experienced campaign and communications leader, with an in-depth knowledge of the sports industry and a wide-ranging network to ensure things happen. He’s able to develop both innovative and pragmatic solutions in a complex sports landscape."

"Peter Coyle is the most tenacious human being I have ever met. The more extreme the hurdles and challenges, the stronger Peter becomes. My life changed when I won my £2million High Court battle with Betfred. For the three preceding years of battle, I faced periods of complete darkness and desolation as Betfred threated to use its power and wealth to ruin me financially. Peter kept me strong and took my stress onto his shoulders. At every step of the way, he delivered exactly what he promised, including Court victory against an incredibly dogged opponent."

"Pete, you gave us light in by far the darkest times in our lives. You gave me strength I never knew I had. What you did and how you helped us is by far the kindest thing anyone has ever done for us. You will have a place in our hearts forever. Thank you."

"Professor Kilbride has been a long-term supporter of the Everton Free School and Football College since its inception 12 years ago. Ian’s generosity has enabled the school to build its own library, the ‘Spirit Library’, and this has contributed to us achieving some fantastic outcomes for the students in our care. His ongoing support for our school, as well as many other projects, is testimony to his commitment to tackle all disadvantages suffered by children and young people everywhere."

"It has been my privilege to know Professor Ian Kilbride for many years, and despite his impressive business achievements, Ian’s commitment to philanthropy has always been an unwavering commitment. The multitude of projects he has created or simply supports, be they one offs or requiring long-term involvement, are too numerous to mention. His abiding passion remains the assistance of anyone from a disadvantaged background, as well as his love for wildlife and the environment."

"Ian has been a passionate and loyal supporter of Everton in the Community since the 1990’s, aiding the growth of the charity through his philanthropic work. His love for Everton Football Club is matched by his unwavering passion for community development and helping to build better futures for all, regardless of who they are, where they live, or the challenges they face. I look forward to working with Ian for many years to come."

"Ian has been the Chairman of Lord’s Taverners in South Africa since its inception and it has been a pleasure working with him, as the CEO. Together, we have developed programmes to assist disadvantaged and disabled children to enjoy sport, often for the first time in their young lives. He will often go the extra mile financially simply to ensure that as many youngsters as possible benefit and are able to simply have fun."
