Negan Posted August 12, 2014 Report Share Posted August 12, 2014 Are we getting one and has the funds been raised? Sorry if there is somewhere I can find all this information, I had a look and couldn't. Only the link at the top of the page which said they wanted to raise 100,000 by 2011 with 15k already reached. That was obviously some time ago so just wanted to know what was happening with it? Thanks for any info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dollymarie Posted August 12, 2014 Report Share Posted August 12, 2014 We discussed it at last weeks supporters club and trust meeting. Funds have nearly reached their target. We are now at the stage where we will be discussing with the club where we would like it to go, approaching designers, and also planning to have a fans vote as to the pose we would like the statue to be. Hope that helps, it is very much still going to happen. Just as an aside, the website for the SC&T is due to be relaunched very soon with up to date information.

richwwtk Posted August 12, 2014 Report Share Posted August 12, 2014 I would choose this one as it seems the kind of pose I would associate with him more than any other..... http://www.sportsworldcards.com/ekmps/shops/sportsworld/images/bristol-city-john-atyeo-1-footballers-1956-cadet-sweets-collectable-trading-card-53259-p.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spike Posted August 12, 2014 Report Share Posted August 12, 2014 This would be nice, I was in Liverpool on the weekend and went to visit Goodison and the statue of Dixie Dean is awesome, something like that of John Ateyo would look fantastic at Ashton Gate.

richwwtk Posted August 12, 2014 Report Share Posted August 12, 2014 Sholdn't it go outside of the Atyeo stand? But after the rebuild this will be the away end! The Williams is the main stand (or grandstand if you prefer) and it should be there, if not at the main pedestrian entrance to the ground as a whole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pongo88 Posted August 12, 2014 Report Share Posted August 12, 2014 Gerry SharpeGoing off at a tangent (nothing new on the forum), Gerry Sharpe was a very talented left winger who's career was finished by an awful tackle. He broke his leg and when it was set it was slightly shorter than the other one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PHILINFRANCE Posted August 12, 2014 Report Share Posted August 12, 2014 ... in an awful tackle from Eric McMordie of Middlesbrough in front of the Dolman ... OK, Thanks and I recognise him now you mention it. I was going to reply to Pongo about his broken leg being against Mboro, but see that RH has added the details. It was, indeed, an awful tackle, and I well recall the 'crack'. I also recall some imbecile singing 'You'll never walk again' and getting his come-uppence.

East End Old Boy Posted August 12, 2014 Report Share Posted August 12, 2014 I used to have a picture of him carrying the World Cup, along with Jackie Charlton, which was from his testimonial match versus Leeds, always though that pose was a bit special.
