Rocky Memorial

Post by skizz_b »

I had a thought recently - it's 15 years since Rocky died in March next year, and while we have the youth team centre named after him and a couple of bits done down the years, we don't have anything at our home ground (other than him being painted on the side of it temporarily) to remember him.

With this in mind I've started a petition to see how much interest there is in us having something more permanent. I don't think we are demanding a statue (although that's an option), even somewhere inside the ground with a plaque and a bit about him would be good. Something we can show our kids on matchday, as a permanent memorial to the fact he's in our thoughts.

Sign the petition at the link below if you agree.

not being a dick (although some might like to argue :wink: ) but he already features on the display outside the stadium

I think that is a fitting tribute tbh. One thing I will say about the club these days is we do give important players of the past a lot of recognition. 8)

I'm inclined to agree but if it helps this cause then surely it was worth the effort.
