...if Les Barrett had not dazzled me with his prowess my message board name could have been JCNo7(&8), a fast outside right, very direct and able to change direction very quickly, watching him and my hero crossover and exchange wings and leave defences bewildered as to who should be marking who is a happy memory. His crosses provided many a goal for Steve Earle/Vic Halom etc.,

I do hope he is still able to realise what great esteem he is held by supporters of a 'certain age'.

"We've got Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy Conway on the wing, on the wing"...

If I still lived in UK, this is something I would not want to miss. If any of you go, please post a report.

He would always be in my 'best Fulham X1' of all time. Loved him.  :Sparkyticus:

I would love to go, and was in fact invited to go a month or so ago before this was official - but the cost is £75!! Sadly too rich for me...

Went to the Legends a couple of years back and that was £50  a ticket,the England match at the cottage was rubbish for the price,  do the club think we all shop at Harrods?

Seventy five quid? Bloody hell I'd want him to sleep with me for that.
Jimmy would not make it into my best Fulham team of all time because I don't think he was as good as Leggat on the wing or Robson inside - or alas would he be pushing Arthur Stevens into my reserve team either; but Jimmy Conway would still be in my top twenty Fulham players of all time. He was fantastic to watch and I just hope that this function provides him with the rewards he so richly deserves.

I surely would have attended had I still been there but 75 pounds? That is a bit harsh for a bite to eat and a laugh about olden days.

I saw him head a goal once.  There can't have been many of those...
