There are loads of places for statues. The roundabout at the bottom of Raw Dykes Road for one. Vardy would be good outside the away turnstiles in a suitable pose. 

He'd love that, hands behind ears.

Welcome to the King Power

Wonder what the artwork will be beneath the statue?

I heard that it will be Mahrez's left ear, and anyone passing can flick it for luck...

Great to hear news of the approval for this statute to a man who brought to Leicester City Football Club the greatest prize ever. Well deserved. Thanks to all concerned and, of course, not forgetting the great man himself, Vichai.

This has gone quiet. S'pose it takes a while to sculpt it. Perhaps it will just arrive in the night when no one's looking. 

 

It would be great to have in place ready for when we can return.

I reckon if we can nail Champions League stuff like this will be released in celebration, if we get Europa League it’ll probably be released a bit slower in the build up to next season (that being said it’s not far off already )

Will the statue be outside the ground or in the memorial garden? Hope they do it justice

It’s going to be on the corner near the Holiday Inn, the memorial garden will be a separate thing.

I can see why it would be infront of the shop. Most visible to persons passing, tourists and sets up the photo opportunities.

 

Whatever they do and however they do it its brilliant and much needed.

Might be a rethink going on about the site for the statue now especially as the fanstore will be relocated around t'other side in the new development.
