Sweep Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 The Dixie statue is very good, the setting for it was naff, and what they do with it, when we un-vail new kits is naff too. I get your point on the new strips launch, it's a bit tacky isn't it. I don't know what Dixie Dean looked like, so I don't know if the statue is a good one or not though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Underpants Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 I think most football statues are a bit shit really, I can't think of any off the top of my head that are decent, expect maybe the Bobby Moore one outside Wembley. Isn't the Everton one of Dixie Dean a bit shit as well? The Munich ones outside Munich hq are good. Ours looks like it will be average at best. Should be excellent at worst Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pablo Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 A big claim to make around these parts! Why do Tranmere have a suite named after him by the way? He played for them too, and was from over the water. Sligo Rovers also share the affection too. 390 goals in 447 games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweep Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 A Beast, best EVER England striker. His goal scoring record certainly can't be argued with, incredible goals per game ratio. How much would he be worth these days I wonder......of Bale is worth £85M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
