Internationowl Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 I know that there is a happy birthday to Howard Wilkinson thread already, but I'd be interested to get a gauge on how much support there'd be for putting up a statue of the man. I suppose we have bigger fish to fry at the moment (and probably always will) but how many men have supported a club as a boy, played for them, managed them - with success - become chairman/director and also played a huge part in saving them from going into administration!? I would doubt that there's anyone else in world football who can tick all those boxes. Do you think Howard Wilkinson should be immortalised at Hillsborough?

Tamworthowl Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 I think someone cleverer and more motivated than me should find the cost of producing a suitable statue and set up a group-funding page. I'd chip in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doghouse Daz Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 Much rather wait for a redevelopment of Hillsborough, then immortalise all the greats in one suitable spot, Howard included. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I hate going to the strippers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
