Recommended Posts

havnt the tigers got a walk of fame or whatever planned for the new ground. for me a statue would be great, and i cant believe stoke beat us to a banks statue.

how about a double statue of the two aurthers ..(rowley and chandler that is).

If it was going to be anyone then Arthur Rowley, being a record holder, would be the ideal candidate. But lets be honest how many of us would recognise his statue if we hadn't been told who it was?

It would be someone your kids would ask who it was. you could then give them a history lesson foxes style, whilst shoving a folded programme in your armpit and munching on a shit hot dog.

yep rowley.

Most of them were in a lower division though..

Well, all of his goals at Leicester were still all scored in the top two tiers. Considering all the players that have scored goals in all four divisions before or since it's still a massive achievement.

He's an idol to people of my Grandad's generation with good reason.

O'Neil - Too soon

Lineker - Too crispy

Rowley - Too Unknown

Shilton - Too forest

I don't think there is one real stand out candidate. If someone put a gun to my head and made me choose, I think Walsh celebrating the derby goal is as iconic as you can get.

Try using the search function and finding the original thread, because this means bugger all to me.

I think it was Radio Leicester on the Phone In over the summer looking for something to discuss so they thrown this subject into the forum, Don't think it was ever a idea mentioned by the club or seriously thought of by the club.

I would think the thread in the Leicester City FC Forum bit.

If you keep on doing the hard work, how are people going to learn to do it themselves.

:D

Wasn't that hard,I remembered I'd posted about face masks in it so was easy to search for. I suppose it should be merged now.

I'm sacking off the idea of Arthur Rowley now.

It should be Arthur Chandler with three swans perched on each arm in a nod to the legend about our club record win.

Wasn't it 5 swans?

Yep, but a sixth flew overhead as he scored his sixth, and Leicester's tenth, goal.

I think that's how the old fairytale goes anyway...
