    I remember reading as a kid in the mid fifties my Charles Buchan Football Album that I got for Christmas every year. There was an article & pics about Albert Quixall the Owls cultured inside forward who later signed for Man Utd. for a record fee of 45k. Apparently he used to attend regular ballet lessons to improve his balance and agility. Something similar might just impove JET's aerial shortcomings and earn him a new nickname 'Nijinsky' ? He flies through the air with greatest of ease etc etc.

    Trouble is he'll be in a goal scoring position then stop for a pirouette.

    To parody Supertramp (Breakfast in America) 'He's not much of a goalscorer.....but he's the only one we've got'
