They haven't even appointed a contractor yet to build it. The more important queston is how many Eccleston lazy s will travel to Widnes.

On the plus side we could just tell this new coach that Widnes is our ground and he wont know any difference.

You wanted the club to set up independently audited phone lines for the vote?

Perhaps they should have done it by postal vote only? Then only the old biddies would have voted as it's quite possible that none of the youth of today can address an envelope properly.

FWIW, I voted for either Van Vollenhoven or Murphy (can't remember which), and I think Elmer Fudd is a poor choice for the statue at this time, just due to the fact he's still playing.

I totally agree with you about the postal vote LOL! My Vote was for Tom as I don't agree with statues for living players (still playing), but I did put forward that the statue could have been three players honoring a few greats era's as well as today.

Tom's alive last time looked.

Total Apologies! that should have read players currently playing!

If you watch the 2 hour DVD of Tom being asked about our great game, it shows what an ambassador he is and is still alive and proud of RL as shown in the recent SA Tour matches.

On this subject of the statue, Stevo always gets it wrong and I think a few on here do as well, the statue is not to honour KC personally it is to honour the club, if you have a look closely Keiron's name does not apear on the statue just the words THE SAINTS

They couldn't afford an independently audited phone line, they certainly couldn't afford the bronze for three players

Nail on head.

How people can claim KC shouldn't have been the choice for the statue simply because he is still playing is beyond me. His record speaks for itself - he will absolutely be held in the same esteem as Voll, Murphy, et al.

A club legend, whether retired yet or not, and worthy of all the plaudits that come his way.

Keiron deserves the award cause he got the most votes,simple really and yes i voted for keiron and i am in my early 40's.

Keiron deserved it because old rugby was utter rubbish. In the olden days people couldn't run properly. People ran like they were tickertape animations and were even black and white in some instances.

Can we not get back on topic please ?

Royce Simmons looks a cert now imo. Stevo looked very excited on boots n all.

It's a good job you didn't take up the Meninga bet isn't it? It looks as though I was correct after all, or has Meningas agent told you something else.

I'm willing to give him his fair chance, he's got alot of experience, but i will be underwelmed if he is announced our new head coach. That said i was when we took on Millward from Leigh, and he did alright

Tis a bit underwhelming, but the ABP* mob will be pleased.

well they've got what they asked for
