- Early in his career Terry was involved in an unsavoury off-the-pitch incident
It's not really satisfactory to hint at this without any explanation. I understand that repeating the specific allegations made in the papers at the time would be unwise in a number of ways, but something as vague as the above is useless; encyclopedias exist to inform people, not merely hint at things they already know.

[edit] Champions Magazine No.14 article
It said that Terry came from West Ham United youth system, but fail to promote and he enter the Blues youth system.
It is intesting because none of the other article point out that, so can anyone find the fact and add into Wiki?Matthew hk 17:11, 19 February 2006 (UTC)John Terry is really really cool n fit. From sxc Danni x
He joind chelsea at 14 though so its good
ISNT JOHN TERRY 186CM? also he didnt fail to promote he got poached i think man utd were after him and chelsea won the race for him
[edit] England Captain
I think that as it's mentioned in the Steven Gerrard article it needs to be mentioned here seeing as they are considered the front runners for the role.
I also think it needs to be said that this article needs improvement both in writing and structure. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Anthony Florister (talk • contribs).

[edit] Height
John Terry is 186 cm tall (that's his official height writen on the Chelsea's website).
[edit] World class
I think describing him as one of the worlds best is a little generous after his fairly dismal performances at interational tournaments and how suspect he can look against top class opposition. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by UncleTheOne (talk • contribs).
- which "dismal performances" would these be? John Terry is most definitely a World Class player and one of the worlds best. He's captain of the best team in the best league in the world as well as captain of one of the top 10 teams in the world. I think you'd be hard pressed to find anyone who knows anything about football who would argue that Terry isn't world class. DJDannyP//Talk2Me 14:50, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
Dismal was maybe a little harsh but he never imposed himself on games like he would at Chelsea. Unlike true world class defenders such as Fabio Cannavaro and Lillian Thuram. At Euro2004 he was truely awful, Campbell had to do the work of two defenders to cover up for him. The world class tag is thrown around all too freely. Best league in the world? Not watch any other football outside England then? Up until last week he was only Chelsea's second best centre back. Until he proves himself for England then he will only ever be a very good defender.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by UncleTheOne (talk • contribs).
You is 'avin a massive larf if you think Billy Gallas is better than JT. Do you even watch Chelsea week-in, week-out? If you don't, don't comment. If you do, you have a very strange opinion of what constitutes a good defender. JT is undoubted class, only stupid Scouse, Manure or Arse scum would deny that.
Why has no one mentioned his time with the wrong side of the law. Has everyone forgetton what the england captain did a few years back?—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Joshc90 (talk • contribs).
- If you're referring to the incident with the doorman, then the article does mention it. If you're referring to another incident then by all means add it, provided it is backed up with a reliable source. I also reverted your addition to the article. You may think Terry doesn't deserve the England captaincy, but this is not the place to air your views. SteveO 13:27, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
This seems like a good article. An example of what's good about wiki. MrBobla 19:25, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
