What an absolute diamond Johnny May is. I’ve loved watching his career and I’m happy to see him emerge from the pressure he’s always felt and smile a lot more. Very well done mate.

Jonny is a top fella and great to see his personality off the pitch. Im pleased he has a payday in france its hard earned and well deserved!

[@andydavies9699]

As someone who grew up playing for Bassett it’s great to see this. The club has produced lots of fantastic players. A few pros but Jonny is the one who went the furthest and a great player he was. Lots of great young talent and their shirts on the walls in the club and a couple of Jonny’s shirts. My photo is hidden round a corner near the coffee machine nowadays 😂

His try against The All Blacks! I could watch that every day and not get tired of that burst of searing pace!

[@joepavel5447]

Getting to see the person behind the player! What a personality, very endearing! My cousin Olly Morgan spoke fondly of him, I can see why! 🙏🏻
