Statues

[foxy tiler]

Isn't it about time the club had a statue of our title winning team/manager. Just think what we achieved that year in all liklihood isn't going to happen again for a very long time.

As much as we need more statues around the ground, I wouldn't do this until we're promoted. Maybe it's superstition or whatever but would rather get the job done in hand than dwell on the past at the moment.

They had planning permission granted for a bronze one on the side of the stadium a few years back but it never came to pass. I would imagine Vards will have one when he leaves or retires. I'd love for Claudio to have one too.

I think Amartey deserves a statue.

[foxfanazer]

The clubs so tone deaf they'd probably erect a Brendan Rodgers one

Well the tw@t stood still for long enough

Preki one peeping out of gate 52 would be apt 

[Jattdogg]

Surely an eiffel tower....

D'oh, thought this was the Vestergard thread.

Vardy, Kasper, Morgan, am I right in thinking these are the only 3 who did Championship, PL and FA cup?

[ian__marshall]

Had plenty in the first team last season, don't need any more. 

[Mike Oxlong]

It’s about time we have a statue of Tom Hopper in action in a prominent position outside the stadium. His part in our title victory has never been properly recognised.

Miss my sweet clumsy prince

For some reason the club seem quite against this. 

 

I'd have thought there'd be a legends one and a Vardy one by now.

Personally I think you should only have statues for players after they've gone or retired. 

[Sol thewall Bamba]

Won't get any more statues under this ownership.

He did after all model for it on several occasions on match day.

I demand a statue of Dyer concussed on the floor next to Nige choking someone or I’m supporting someone else.

Personally would love 4 statues:

 

1) Statue of Ranieri

2) Statue of the premier league winning team when they lifted the trophy

3) Tielemans when we he took that FA cup shot with a statue ball in the air.

4) Statue of Martin O’Neill when he used to  do that mental jump whenever we scored 

[CosbehFox]

There’s a full five day event being held in Thailand - open training session, pre season friendly, signing sessions, Q & A’s 

 

Whilst in Leicester, there’s tumbleweed

That could be quite tricky

After he retires Vards should certainly have a statue.

His 100 club sky sports video was on this morning showing all his prem goals to a hundred. What a fantastic striker he has been for us. 

By far and away the best goalscorer I have seen for us in my time, and that includes the likes of Wortho, Lineker and Smith.

The way I picture it in my mind is the ball is on a pillar (the pillar would be a transparent material)

 

Or even have the ball “hanging” in the corner of the goal frame where it nestled.

The club, probably, has too many candidates to choose from to commission a statue.

 

The Vichai one is the best I've ever seen, and know that he would've been personally proud of it.
