John and Mack want rid of each other in Emmerdale spoilers

The feud between John and Mack has taken a sinister turn, with fans even suspecting Mack could be the Sugden’s next victim.

Viewers know John has a hero complex – he orchestrates situations to put other’s lives in danger, then swoops in to play the saviour. John tried this with Nate Robinson. He injected him with drugs after his fight with Cain. But Nate had a bad reaction to the meds and ended up dying on John.

Mack has his eye on John after finding out about Aidan Moore, and therefore John can’t risk him unearthing more secrets. How far will he go to get Mack off his case?

Disaster strikes at Butlers

As the war between John and Mack rages on, Moira makes a worrying discovery at Butlers. She finds there’s a serious leak with the farm’s slurry tank and soon blames Mack for the issue, much to John’s delight.

So was John behind the sabotage? And did he deliberately do it just to get Mack into trouble? We wouldn’t put anything past this guy!

However John’s delight is short-lived when he learns how serious the situation actually is. Cain explains that the slurry leak has affected the main water supply for Emmerdale, meaning all of the locals are now at risk.

After hearing the news, John hopes no one has drunk the toxic water. But whoever is to blame, an innocent life is now in danger.
