Bell, Lee and Summerbee statue | Unveiled (pg19)

[levets]

“Skip” deserves one, as does Trautmann imo too.

I’ve never been a fan of statues for this reason. You have to draw the line and it’s always a very harsh line on those who miss out.

Bert already has one.

Colin and Bert's are in the West Reception

Colin and Bert's are in the West Reception foya area ! But one of Lee, Bell.and Summerbee is under construction at the moment!

 

[kurious oranj]

Pretty sure Bert's is made with cardboard.

Can they add Mercer and Alison to it, please.

I think it's right we acknowledge the great players of times gone by and Bell, Lee and Summerbee are widely considered as our three but I always feel this is more a case of providing a rival symmetry to Best, Law and Charlton. Surely Book deserves something. Captained us to all of that success as a player and further success as a manager. Hard to know where to draw the line on these things really!

We've had a hell of a lot of good players. You've got Kompany, Silva and Aguero honoured with statues. De Bruyne will need to be recognised. Pep will too. Then you've got Gundo who captained us to the treble! Going to need to name some stands in the future I think!

I'm not sure the North Stand being called the Book End will get many votes though!

Not recycled bratwurst packaging?

Stereotyping? Moi?

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

Can they add Mercer and Alison to it, please.

And then we all want one of Bert being helped off Wembers by Dave Ewing and Bill Leivers! That could stand like the Colossus of Rhodes on the corner where we had the B of the Bang!

I agree it’s hard to know where to draw the line. However I’d say United don’t have ownership over statues and what they’ve done is irrelevant. We’re talking about 3 of arguably our best ever players, who’s names have past down generations.

A statue of all 3 of them is the most fitting tribute in my opinion. I think they are more deserving than most.

I’d name the north stand the Summerbee stand as well.

An Anthony, Greenwood and Giggs collage would be more suited at the Swamp.

It couldn't be battered bettered

Hope City have kept Andy Scott on a retainer. After completing the BLS statue, he could design one for miner's in memory of those who lost their lives down Bradford pit.
