You push for your RL statue but I would love to contribute to a Neil Fox tribute, especially whilst the guy is still around. As deserved as Billy Boston and miles more deserved than Martin Offiah.

I'm a massive fan of Neil Fox and am lucky enough to say I talk to him often.
Although he's always really proud of his achievements I have to agree with Egg and say a single statue might be too much.
If we did it, I think a statue of multiple players lifting Turner up with the cup would be better ........ but right now, there are loads of things to do before a statue.

I have to agree that there are more important things going on at the moment .
I just thought you were being a tad disrespectful but perhaps it was unintentional.
I saw Neil in his heyday and at some point I would like to see a statue of him at his rugby home, Belle Vue.

What about a bust or more accurately a number of busts
Jonny Parkin, Herbert Goodfellow, Fred Smith, Neil Fox, Derek Turner, Harold Poynton, Ian Brooke

Not as grand as a statue, people like Neil might be more comfortable with that and, if done properly, it’d look amazing in the entrance of the new stand

I think the big photos like those in Fox's would be fine in the new stand.

That’s a good idea- I’m sure Jonty Parkin was thought of as highly as big Neil in his day and Turner our most successful captain ever.
