I totally agree - it also gets me thinking...how many recent Wycombe players would classify as a true club legend? It has been such a great period that I would put the following in there from post L2 promotion:
Bayo
Blooms
JJ
Darius
Stewart
Gape
Scowen
Alfie
Mehmeti
GMac
Curtis
Grimmer
McCarthy
Tyson
CMS
Sido
Wheeler
I may be forgetting some obvious ones too. Taffs, Stocko, Stryjek, Kashket and Vokes are probably more borderline for me whether through number of appearances or lack of banner moments. Personally I regard Freeman as a unique case, too. PCH is another interesting one.
Just looking at the club's twitter and there was a photo of the coaches and MB together but no sign of Sam Grace. Does this mean that he won't be with the club much longer? Is this the end of the development squad?

They’ve not got a pot to piss in. They will sign experienced CB’s who are currently free agents or take on a loan CB from a Premier team.
My guess would be Harlee Dean who lives about 15 mins from Shepherd’s Bush.
Rumour on twitter has Curtis Thompson training and potentially signing for Cheltenham Town for this season.
Let us hope he gets a contract and remains injury free for the remainder of his career. A true Wycombe legend!!!!

Surely you'd put Ainsworth on that list as a player & manager?
That is a very long list, full of some very loyal players. However, I'd say most would be classed as icons or favoured players rather than legend
I'd say the only club legends were Ainsworth, Bayo, JJ and Bloomfield.
Plenty of heroes amongst the others on that list though.
First three are legends.
Icons and heroes are both good ways of putting that second level, @Otter87 and @Chris.
It's from Football Manager
Yep you don't become a legend that easily.
Old school legends are O Neill, Cousins, Carroll, Ryan , Guppy, Scott, Brown etc
A few cult heroes like Garner.
I go along with @Chris and his take on our recent legends.
Matt Bloomfield not a legend? I’d have to wholeheartedly disagree.
First 3 are Bayo, Blooms, JJ

No quote box. I thought you were replying to the previous message, not one further back in the day.
Don't tell him that! I was liking getting some credit for thinking of different labels!
KVY takes #44 - disgustingly high!
Any chance we can sign Laura James ?

Daryl Horgan has returned to Dundalk, just announced on their Twitter.
Me bad.
Good luck to him!

Perhaps he does not live in Ipswich and have to drive in with the boss?
More worrying...anyone know what this means in the email I just got about the Exeter game?
'To top it off, enjoy exciting pre and post-match entertainment, thanks to Eleven Sport Media.'
I was about to say it sounded like an Australian Company but a quick google infoms me that the company is from Blackpool
That's quite a stretch, assuming the whole gang have some huge "management" drive in gang.
Just noticing on Twitter that there is pretty much a photo of everyone except him
Shame if he does leave as he seems to have done a very good job over his time with us. Maybe GA is taking him to QPR?
He'll be back next week then
I knew QPR is cut-throat, I didn't expect them to be that quick!
