The club are asking fans to vote which image to use for Nats statue, for me it's an easy choice the picture where Nat is held aloft by his team mates after the 58 cup final.

So long as it looks like him I'm not really bothered. That Benny Hill jobbie of Fred Dibnah in the town center is embarassing.

That's not even a choice. They can call the other images as 'iconic' as they want, the cup image is THE Nat image.

I prefer the one of him with him drinking out of the cup with a fag and a beer in his hand

 

Can't see them making that into a statue though

Fag and beer for me.

Can't see how they can produce image 4 without sculpting the whole team. Image 3 for me:

Vote here: http://www.natlofthouse.co.uk/your-say/

must be 4

Not sure how they'd do #4, but if they can do it and make it actually look like him (unlike, as said above, that disgrace that is supposed to be Fred Dibnah) then it has to be this.

They could recreate that F.A. Cup Final group shot on the base like the one on the Bobby Moore statue:

 

Aye, number 4

I'm sure there are better images than the ones selected to vote for such as this one at Stamford Bridge http://www.natlofthouse.co.uk/assets/NatLofthouse/images/Lofthouse-Tributes.jpg

when you vote does it take you to another page?

I think the images are just to give a general idea of the pose. If they go with image 4 it's not going to look like that photo. He would have to be standing on the plinth rather than being held aloft by his team mates. A 9ft statue costs around ?100K, so they're not going to sculpt the whole team!

No doubt about it ? Number 4.

I think that this image while OK does not tell a story the 58 cup final one is written in history and is what BWFC is all about this is about Nat but should also be about what he achieved and the club achieved together and this would help future generations remember our great history.

Image 6 : power & purpose

The image with nat running out of the tunnel with the ball has been chosen

So the simplist one?

 

Hmmm very fishy

What was the point of doing a vote?

What was the point of doing a vote?

 

To decide the 3 most popular. Then the family chose their favorite out of the three.
