Now that the club has over a £1 million windfall cannot the club put in the final £25k so that the statue can be commissioned and erected outside the ground?

I actually agree with you on this, our fans raised thousands already(£45,000), the Council have given £15,000, our Club could pay the rest.
I hear they might ask for every fan to pay extra on their Wembley ticket, I dont know if this is true ?

Oh by the way the Carling Cup could bring us in anything from £2mill to £3mill. :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

Better than that, what if all the thirty odd thousand City fans who go to Wembly all chip in £1, that would cover the remaining cost surly???

I think I'd rather we raised the money ourselves tbh. Let's make it a fans project.

Absolutely, & could be done when purchasing a cup final ticket.

Just had an email, the club will not be putting any extra on the Wembley tickets. It was suggested to them.

It will remain with the fans raising the money.

Our coach once again to Southampton away will do a collection. :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

Shame it would have guaranteed the money.
