How would folks feel about some NUFC ones around the town a la Leeds? I think the Bielsa one is brilliant; certainly the artwork itself anyway. If we were to win something I think it would potentially be pretty cool if done very well and ideally didn't have sponsors. For eg their Phillips one near the water has the SBOBET thing on his shirt (not in full but still visible). I think the location has to be right and ultimately that means being supported by the people who live there. Not those who pass through the area even if daily. the Leeds ones are not universally liked, burley bankys who does a lot of the FTTC and elec boxes isn’t popular with everyone. That seemed to also open up the artwork to everyone. What if you don’t like football, ok my mural is of the pussy cat dolls and so on. That caused a lot of murals and witty or inspirational slogans to go up wherever anyone wanted in leeds and caused a big backlash. all great fun, until someone does a mural you don’t like next to your house. not sure where I’m going. I suppose my point is, they can look fantastic, but need support of local people who actually live on that street/location. Can be a bit Pandora’s box.

Aye it's not a straightforward debate like, as you say. If anything the Leeds ones just seem a bit too abundant (what is there, 17?) Kinda why I'm a bit "really?" at that Fender/Adidas one. Particularly seeing as it's ultimately commercially motivated; seems a bit unjustified. At least that Bielsa one is exclusively about celebrating someone who's positively impacted a community.

For me, a Eddie Howe and the lads mural would be good even now, no need to wait for us to win something. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you aware that this sort of statement can be considered offensive? Do you believe that women are not strong enough mentally to stand up for themselves? My wife would be quite offended by you believing, as a man, that you need to stand up for her and she is not capable of doing it herself.
