I was listening to the game tonight and after hearing Tim Oglethorpe refer to the North Stand as "The Sheinman Stand" it got me thinking, wasn't there suppose to be a statue made of Dave Bowen as part of the agreement to change the name of the stand?

As this was nearly 2 years ago does anyone have any idea if this is still happening?

No criticism here, just curious if it was still going ahead which i'm pleased to see it is! In reply to your sarcastic comment, why on earth would I refer to it as The Dave Bowen Stand when it isn't called that anymore? What should I have called it instead? The Stand behind one of the goals that houses the home fans??  Roll Eyes

Bowen was a one-off genius who saw the potential in players and worked with it. His achievement was one of football's miracles. We were good enough to have stayed up - that number of points would normally have saved us - but things conspired against us and relegation was a sickening blow. Superb fun while it lasted.
