SuperSAINT Posted 6 November, 2012 Share Posted 6 November, 2012 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alpine_saint Posted 6 November, 2012 Share Posted 6 November, 2012 Has the sculpturer ever worked again after producing that? it really is incredibly poor. 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. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ian_Brennan Who the f**k thought he had a clue with bronze, I'll never know.

latter day saint Posted 6 November, 2012 Share Posted 6 November, 2012 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 ?

The Kraken Posted 6 November, 2012 Share Posted 6 November, 2012 "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" Ted Bates Trust chairman, Dave Ford. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saint_sinner Posted 6 November, 2012 Share Posted 6 November, 2012 Thanks Alps, it seems like most of his commissions are coronets and crowns! 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! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
