This never fails to cheer me up.

[Thedelldays]

the left hand holding the ball...never fails to make me LOL

[Raging Bull]

Looks like a couple of members of this forum!

[OldNick]

sign him up, we have had 3 keepers this season,at least he seems to have control of the ball

[captainchris]

That did make me laugh on a bleak day....

[SuperSAINT]

It's like some sort of bad dream....

 

The fact we ever had a Midget Milan Mandaric statue outside St Mary's boggles the mind.

[Turkish]

Even now, 5 (?) years on, it never fails to raise laugh.

[Doctoroncall]

Has the sculpturer ever worked again after producing that?

 

it really is incredibly poor.

[lordswoodsaints]

Just another sad but funny day from the Lowe era

[anothersaintinsouthsea]

If someone could resurrect THAT reaction thread I'll be forever in their debt. so funny.

[beavis17]

Where's the picture of the morons that handed their season tickets back when you need it...?

[Webby]

Looks nothing like Cortese...oh wait

[notnowcato]

Cheers Hatch.

 

I'm going to task my 3 year old with making a replica with playdoh.

Superb, Hatch. Thanks for the laugh. A pity that our summer transfer activity was approached with the same level of competence as this statue.

 

Ian Brennan is a world renowned wood sculptor.

Who the f**k thought he had a clue with bronze, I'll never know.

 

EDIT: I dare someone to edit that Wikipedia entry.

That was utterly epic!

[sandwichsaint]

Love it and still good to see it's not every teacher that 'helps' kids with their DT coursework.

[latter day saint]

i tried my hardest but just couldn't help laughing,even the missus did when she looked over my shoulder

maybe they should flash that image up on the scoreboards as the players come out on to the pitch? would relieve some tension before ko

or how about a life size inflatable replica floating over the pitch ?

Thanks Alps, it seems like most of his commissions are coronets and crowns!

"It is very rare I am lost for words but I saw the statue last week and it is awesome - a tremendous tribute to a great man. [southampton] Fans have waited a long time for this and it is going to be fantastic. I really believe it will be the best football statue anywhere both in size and the amount of detail"

Great statue NA waving goodbye

[chocco boxo]

Highlighted in The Mail today in an article about the best and worst statues, always makes me laugh! shame our defence does now!

Ian Brennan seems to have removed this statue from his CV just as Redknapps SFC relegation is never mentioned on his CV.

 

Also Leon Crouch paid for the replacement statue out of his own pocket so I'm told!

[LGTL]

The reaction from the trust was the most hilarious aspect of the whole thing. Did they think we were all blind?!

On a scale of Jonjo Shelvey to Jordan Henderson, just how bad is Stewart Downing?

Not just me then:
