Too soon. Conor’s contribution will be measured by how it’s remembered in 10-20 years, which is probably a more realistic minimum for someone to be added to the hall of famed.
Others from the past would surely be ahead of him for adding eg Martijn Reuser |  | | |

Reuser? A a cult hero for sure, but there’s no way he’s ahead of Conor in terms of overall contribution. |  |

That’s not the point. I’m not attempting to compare their contributions. Conor is fresh in people’s minds, and for many a player they experienced, whereas they won’t have experience of players from 10, 20 or more years ago.
It’s about how the ‘reputation’ of a player endures through the years. Typically a hall of fame recognises those that endure the years. Not someone added during their time with the club, or soon after. And he’s still our player, out on loan.
If the hall of fame was to work like that, what about Morsy? | | | |

Ok, fair enough. We’ll revisit in 20 years! I’ll be depressingly old by then  | |

The mere concept of this "hall of fame" and "inducting" people into it, is inane American nonsense and I hate it. Players are famous, well regarded, etc for all sorts of reasons, irrespective of stupid marketing based collections of names.
Just saying. | | | |

A club legend are players who took us to our finest hours like the 61/62 side Fa cup winners and the great uefa Cup winning side although a notable achievement going from league 1 to the Premiership last season was totally embarrassing. Thank you so very much appreciated but legend. | | | |

"Legend" is well over used these days....
Got to be lifting some silverware, break the clubs all time goals record or appearance record, for me...
Love Chaplin, but he's a "fans favourite" and not a club legend in my eyes. | | | |

What if he falls out with the Portsmouth manager and goes on loan to Norwich?
Best to wait until he retires. | | | |

What is the obsession with Chaplin over the rest? A superb player, an important figure in our rise but no more key than. The other starters from the double promotion team. If one goes in, they should all go in. | |

I’m going to be a supporter of CC in such a proposal but also feel the test of time is important. I expect he’s done enough in his era on the pitch and had a great impact off the pitch but it is how he handles and retains some connection with the club over the next years that will become important for final legendary status. | |

I never understand why these players take 10/15 years to get in there.
He and Morsy were (IMO) the 2 main men in our promotions. Deserve to go in there now. No questions asked.
Many of the others will follow suit. But there’s two go in now |  |

Reuser got 2 massive goals, that aside to even put him in the same sentence as Chaplin is insane.
And I say that as someone who loved/loves reuser | |

Morsy should be there as the captain of a back to back promotion team. |  | | |

While you're not wrong, the fact is that our Hall of Fame contains players like Gavin Johnson, Jason De Vos and Frank Yallop.
Not saying they weren't decent players, but by those standards Conor Chaplin absolutely deserves to be in there. As does Sam Morsy. |  | | |

Plus, it's an absolute pain in the arse having so many ex-players hanging around and clogging up the hall. I had to get rid of my Ming dynasty umbrella stand and forty year old aspidistra when Graham Harbey turned up. |  |
