Bell, Lee and Summerbee statue | Unveiled (pg19)

Oh, I just read the comments and his son had made one about the statue.

I just watched the short video back and it was Franny. His illness had obviously affected his speech badly but he was talking about how much the statues looked like them.

Colin should be in the middle.

Thought that at first but then thought that he wasn't one to seek the limelight, so having Franny at the forefront seems more appropriate.

Dead Franny? Or his son?

Franny is in the video which was recorded before he passed away.

I had no idea he'd been so ill, was really sad seeing him like that but at the same time nice to see he still had his faculties about him

if any players in our history are deserving of a statute it’s these 3.

I think that should be it for statues now. The only thing I would do is move the Bert trautman one outside as most people don’t even know it’s there

Warming to know Franny at least saw picturest before he passed. Genuinley brought a few tears seeing him like that though.

The 3 statues of Sergio, Kompany, Silva are excellent. My only disappointment is Sergio’s statue isn’t depicting the very moment and pose when he struck the ball to score the goal that won City the title, rather than him celebrating and waving his shirt in the air after he scored that famous goal.

PS. Joey Barton should have got a statue of him receiving the red card. It changed the game and the destiny of the PL title.

I get what you mean but there were many instances of Kun looking like in your photo. Only one of him running swinging his shirt after winning us the league :)

One of Pep with all the trophies he has won at City but holding the Champions league.

When we beat the PL charges we should get a statue of Khaldoon using documents as toilet roll.
