Especially considering the fact that Joey would almost certainly cringe at walking past a giant statue of himself, as has been pointed out, there are other ways of honouring him that serve his name and the community.

Tbf as a community club I would hope we can offer say 10 scholarships every season or whatever number deemed necessary. This would allow us to have youngsters at the club that would not necessarily be able to play for us due to financial reasons.

No chance I'd say or they'd have already done that.

Stinks of a money making scheme the amount parents are charged currently.

The club should be actively pursuing this if they aren't already. I believe massively that this needs to be brought onto the agenda but I haven't a clue how to do it.

I agree with just an arm with a clenched fist located near the tunnel so the players see it as they run out.

I'm with Mike on this, the fist would get a fisting.

Totally agree. Joey will be embarrassed by all this talk.

In terms of Joey it's for his employer to decide what, if anything, to do about his retirement.

Us fans can have lots of ideas of what we might want to see but at the end of the day it's unsustainable to have such a random incoherent thought process. There needs to be a process put in place driven by history and commerce not emotion.

"As a club we need a coherent thought process for how and why we name stands not a knee jerk campaign every time someone dies or retires."

Totally disagree when it comes to Joey. Id love to see a stand named the Joey Jones stand regardless of commercial opportunities. He is Mr Wrexham thats a fact
