That is quite a reach

Why do people need more than just a tribute to our greatest player?

It's only a question of money and where to spend it.
He already has a blue plaque, a road and a bar. It's not like everyone has forgotten him.

Why don't we just rename the whole city as Neil Fox to commemorate a man who isn't even dead yet just to appease a handful of fans. He had a road and a bar already named after him, but keep pretending he's some forgotten hero

I didn't realise it was a statue of Kevin Proctor

Statue of the great man necessary, and thinking of anything else is absurd.

They’ll be a statue of Kevin proctor outside one world travel in trinity walk as the greatest ever customer.

Already is Pat....
.....And a full-size cardboard cut-out inside too.

If you really believe that just "a handful" of fans would support the project then I'm clearly out of touch and therefore give in to your superior knowledge of the guys status.

If you walked through Wakefield City centre and asked 100 random people if they knew who he was, I'd be surprised if more than 5 people know.

Why don't you try it and let us all know how you get on....
