I'm pretty sure Yaya turned into one in his last season with us. His heat map never spread outside of the middle circle.

We have no 'istry', so we don't have anyone good enough to fete with a statue.


But if we were to go down that route, I think it's a great idea....but only if it goes much further back than the 1960s.
We have to respect those who were the heroes of our club in previous years.
Others may not know them but we should never forget them.
Frank Swift, Bert Trautmann, Billy Meredith, Sammy Cowan and others must never be allowed to vaporise unremembered into the past

Having been a regular match attendee since 1964 and a s/t holder since 1974 . Having been at the Swindon game with 8,000 in a stadium that once held 84,500 and was one of the 3,000 plus at the Prater stadium in 1970 I have earned the right to call who ever I like a legend!!!!
Totally agree the clubs present to Sergio should be to rename the family stand and yes agree that going back into our long long History than quits a few more should be built to honour all those from the past . The three and the six names are from the mid sixties onwards and along with Francis Lee , David Bernstein , Shinawatra and now The Sheikh and Khaldoon have moulded our club into where we now stand today. Before anyone else kicks off Francis Lee is there because he saved and created the modern day business of the club, but it came at the cost of what was happening on the pitch!! Cheers for listening.

FFS WELL IF ITS A COMPETION , read the book City Voices!!
I and 20 others were chased down a platform at Euston station by about 200 Arsenal fans wielding chains and poles!! Old Derby County in a complete riot with Derby Fans and at least 3 police horse charges !! Best of all is you have never lived if you hadn’t been to Leeds and Old Stoke City one lot were complete animals and the other thought they were red indians and had Bowie knives and Bows and arrows!!
More?? Chased from the swamp more times than can remember plus the league cup semi final when we drew 2-2 but went thru as we had won 2-1 at Maine Road , stuck down Warwick road subway rags in front rags behind it was a bloodbath!!
Still more fellas , stood on Stretford end in 1969 watching on big screens rags away at AC Milan second leg about 30,000 there Milan scored I cheered Milan went in the Final rags fans were to numb to do anything so got out of that one!!
Ok fellas I will call whoever I want a legend , I have earns it!!!! CBBT
