pedro111 Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 To be honest I am a little gutted about the hand like. The one fingered salute was mainly only used towards the tail end of his career, the statue should have been modelled off a photo of him in his pomp in 1996. Full palm out with little finger sticking outwards slightly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 Only two names I've seen confirmed so far for Man Utd are Andy Ritchie and Russell Beardsmore. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigfella Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 I'd have preferred the image to have been celebrating his last ever goal; I'm sure the Mackems would have appreciated that moment saved for posterity - he celebrated that goal with finger points on both hands. They've been talking about this on Soccer AM this morning and phoned Shearer to ask him why it doesn't show his usual open palm celebration . Al said it was a reference to his last goal in football and they showed the pen against the makems and the subsequent finger point. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
huss9 Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 saw the statue up close today before the match and have to say its very good. the photos on the internet dont really do it justice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
M4 Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Checked it out yesterday as well, and whilst still a little bit cartoonish I agree it looks better in reality than photos. I like that they gave him the proper old school Umbro boots. http://i.imgur.com/YXh1VTL.jpg Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Howaythetoon Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Its much better up close. Its better than the SBR one. Wor Jackie's is a great statue though, one of the best! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsunami Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 The face is too thin, it does though look better than the photos. Don't like the left arm positioning at all Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 Any word at all on who Man Utd are bringing on Sunday? It's going to be people like Pilkington, O'Kane and Cooke isn't it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sima Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 Saunders is a proper weirdo. First that Brian Clough story and now this. Steven Taylor had already played for the first team before Souness arrived. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanshithispantz Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 Taylor would have been 20 - not 17 - in 2006. A quick google would have told Saunders that, the fucking creep. By which point he'd also had about 2 dozen Premiership appearances for us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jungle Barry Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 Didn't Shearer also sign a years extension in 2005? Seem to remember it being in the lead up to the infamous Villa game with the Dyer/Bowyer scrap. Steven Taylor was also sent off in that game. Bit of a fantasist is Saunders Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 It's quite clearly an absolute load of shit. Not even Welshman Bellamy has any time for Saunders. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 Things were looking decent then. We'd went on a good run even under Souness, were deep in two cups, Shearer extended his contract, then that Villa match happened. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 1 defeat in 18 in all comps from Jan 1st up to that Villa game, that was 1-0 away to Arsenal. 8 were league games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
