Bell, Lee and Summerbee statue | Unveiled (pg19)

[Gary James]

Its a pity these statues didn't come out first, before the others.
Would have been a great tribute, when all were alive.

They all knew they were happening. It's been a long process over many years. Francis approved it.

Who made the statue? They've done a great job.

The film "City Forever" about the statue similar to the one they did about the Kompany Silva & Aguero ones will be released by the club on 02-12-23 a nice date number combination

Good to see it’s getting a panning from those in Trafford, London and Ireland. The Temu Trinity they’re calling it.

Cry more. It’s really hurting isn’t it?!

Originally in the museum. I commissioned it when we set up the museum in 2003. It cost £2000 and was done by sculptor Kari Furre who used real football clothing, boots etc. over a base figure. She sprayed it all with a special fabric hardener. It's made for indoors. We had other figures in the museum - one of Colin Bell and two of fans (representing climbing into the stadium in 1934's record crowd and staying loyal during late 1990s. Not certain what happened to the fan figures but both Bell and Trautmann are there.

Never seen that one before Gary, but what a wonderful statue. Well done mate.

Big Mal said that as he drove to Maine Road for the first time along the route he saw lots of rag shirts, his thought was we will soon change that, he went on to say that in time he use to cross the road when he saw a rag as he didn't know what to say to them

 

[Boo or Boo-urns]

How many statues have FSG and the Glazer's forked out for their clubs during their ownership?

Too busy stuffing their back pockets with cash dividends.

I love our club.

The Temu Trinity that used to twat fuck out of Best, Law and Charlton on a regular basis.

The whole 67/68 team deserves a statue, but in truth Bell, Lee and Summerbee were the most famous.

Those of us who were there will never forget the others. Skip, Doyle, Young, Oakes, Pardoe - just as deserving but not as 'famous'.

Mulhern, Book, Pardoe, Doyle, Heslop, Oakes, Lee, Bell, Sumerbee, Young, Coleman and the regular substitute Connor.
