sheffield_dave Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 So when are we having a day for our current longest serving player? There's loads of potential for a JJ Day. Jamaican flags, JJ masks, singing about being faster than Bolt etc, maybe the odd dreadlocks wig. Our more rotund fans can even come as John Candy from Cool Runnings. Needs to be a Saturday away trip where we are likely to take decent numbers, which leaves Leicester, Leeds and Peterborough. We might be a bit pre-occupied with twitchy bums and nerves at Peterborough if this relegation scrap continues, so might have to scratch that unless we're already safe a week or two before. Leicester or Leeds.. I vote Leicester. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orlando_Trustful Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 We've done one, we don't need to do another or the novelty value will wear off. 1 a season max. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orlando_Trustful Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 party pooper Not at all. I would have loved to have gone to the Semedo day, it looked great. But they shouldn't be done regularly or they just become tedious, I say 1 per season is perfect. this or maybe none a season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest markowl123 Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 I wouldn't mind one for jj at Leicester, would be a laugh, semedo day seemed ages ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiJ Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 Semedo has never been the same since Semedo day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheffield_dave Posted February 24, 2013 Author Share Posted February 24, 2013 I actually agree that they should be reserved for special occassions. However, I don't think a second in one season is pushing things that far. This is also suggested on the special circumstances that, as mentioned in the OP, JJ is our current longest serving player, and I think it'd be nice for him to get some proper recognition before he potentially leaves at the end of the season (I hope he stays for at least another year, but he might not). He'd love it as well I'm sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiJ Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 For JJ day can we bring a load of footballs and lob them around the stands? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGodfather Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 Can we retrospectively have a Guy Branston day? Neil wouldn't even need to dress up then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteG_1984 Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 (edited) The superstition inside me says this is a bad idea looking at our result against forest and Donny's defeat on Rob Jones day Edited February 24, 2013 by PeteG_1984 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blueblood Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 (edited) JJ deserves some credit. There's been times when he's been the only attacking threat we've had (I know that's scary, but it's true). The lad also bleeds blue and white and has so much love for the club and us fans. We should definately have some sort of JJ appreciation event. We'll miss him when he's gone It could potentially be a very colourful affair too Edited February 24, 2013 by Blueblood Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EatMyGOAAAALLLLL Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 Scored some crackers in his time with us. Never a dull moment with JJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharrowowl Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 JJ's far too cool for a player day. He'll think we've all gone batty boy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james o connor Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 are these days limited only to players who have contributed nothing / very little to this season ?!?!?! or in jj's case the last 6??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheffield_dave Posted February 24, 2013 Author Share Posted February 24, 2013 are these days limited only to players who have contributed nothing / very little to this season ?!?!?! or in jj's case the last 6???

Ironman Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 are these days limited only to players who have contributed nothing / very little to this season ?!?!?! or in jj's case the last 6??? Shutup u muppet. He's a loyal servant who's turned in some cracking performances over the years. Not the most consistent but on his day a quality player, as the video above proves. Name me one other player since the premiership days who scores goals like JJ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goh Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 If JJ is set to leave last game of the season should be JJ day and if safe from relegation we play JJ up front on all pens, free kicks and corners as captain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
