Just seen this, been out for the night, his name is above the door, he carries he can, needs to fall on his sword, thank you for the good times DC but time to go

I think the term legend when attached to a player depends on what period of time you are lucky or unlucky enough to call 'your era', for me my era was mid-eighties to mid nineties, for my daughters it's 2000 onwards. As previously stated JJ perhaps isn't the most skilfull player player I have seen in a Wednesday shirt, but he probably is the best they can remember.
