MikeyT Posted 4 April 2011 Posted 4 April 2011 Simon De Montfort William Wyggeston Thomas White Gabriel Newton And they should all be arranged around the corners of a big tower with maybe a clock in the top. Not up on my Simon De Montfort history but didn't he rise up against the King? Then end up being executed? I am possibly wrong and thinking of someone else though.
Trav Le Bleu Posted 4 April 2011 Posted 4 April 2011 Not up on my Simon De Montfort history but didn't he rise up against the King? Then end up being executed? I am possibly wrong and thinking of someone else though. He was leader of the barons who rose up against King Henry III, overthrowing him and becoming ruler of England for a little over a year. He was Earl of Leicester (though not sure he had much to do with us or ever came here). As a child I was taught that he was involved with the Magna Carta signing, but having checked a few things, he would have been only seven years old (though his father was also Simon De Monfort and Earl of Leicester )
Houdini Logic Posted 4 April 2011 Posted 4 April 2011 Would it not be easier and cheaper to steal another statue? There's a statue of Ormondroyd in Cologne we could steal There's also a similarity between Pearson and the redeemer from Rio De Janeiro
The Doctor Posted 4 April 2011 Posted 4 April 2011 Simon De Montfort William Wyggeston Thomas White Gabriel Newton And they should all be arranged around the corners of a big tower with maybe a clock in the top. No, he's already got one of my several local pubs named after him.
Jakemoore Posted 4 April 2011 Posted 4 April 2011 Peter Taylor, which could come equipped with a target and a few air riffles. Could be come a real hit with the younger generation.
The Doctor Posted 4 April 2011 Posted 4 April 2011 We should have a 'roo fox statue, or MikeyT with a box of tissues near by.
Larry_LCFC Posted 4 April 2011 Posted 4 April 2011 To be fair I would quite like to see a stone statue of davieG outside the Walkers Maybe in his speedos or something?
Foxybeaver Posted 4 April 2011 Posted 4 April 2011 Banks, shilton, linker, chandler, black or perhaps the best of all akinbiyi
Ambitious Posted 4 April 2011 Posted 4 April 2011 Arthur Chandler, clubs top goal scorer ever, its gotta be! he helped us get to the highest position ever in 1929, when we finished 2nd and were a point off winning the league.
Trav Le Bleu Posted 4 April 2011 Posted 4 April 2011 No, he's already got one of my several local pubs named after him. How about a statue to the Star and Garter then?
themotivator Posted 4 April 2011 Posted 4 April 2011 bronze statue of matty fryatt and max gradel in a poignant embrace
acooling08 Posted 4 April 2011 Posted 4 April 2011 Has to be either Linekar, Banks, Worthington etc Chandler was great but no fans have a living memory of him, it was too long ago.
StanSP Posted 4 April 2011 Posted 4 April 2011 Has to be either Linekar, Banks, Worthington etc Chandler was great but no fans have a living memory of him, it was too long ago. Don't see why that should matter. He's a legend for the club. Doesn't mean he'll be/has been forgotten.
lcfcadam Posted 4 April 2011 Posted 4 April 2011 Whilst searching for pictures of funny statues to try to derail the thread with, I came across this - coolest thing I've seen in a while...

Wymsey Posted 4 April 2011 Posted 4 April 2011 Keith Vaz? If a statue of him was going to be at the Walker's, then it is very likely it'll get damaged in some sort of form.....................

Wymsey Posted 4 April 2011 Posted 4 April 2011 Thought there was a general talk within the city and also a petition on Facebook to get a Keith Weller one up?
