Legends Statues

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

Fast forward to that dark depressing day at Elland Road in 1999 and him running around like a proper arsehole, well it left a bitter taste in my mouth that I've never been able to get over. Not saying he should have sent his team out to lose, but he didn't need to behave like such a wanker.

As our record appearance maker, despite what has happened since his departure from the club, he should be recognised.

I can't see any of the current lot getting anywhere near it :(
(thankfully in some cases)

Does anyone have an idea when the Bergkamp statue will be unveiled? I know Arsenal haven't announced a date yet, but surely they know roughly when it will be done. Maybe in August, just before the start of the new season?

Would love to make the trip to London especially for this event. :barscarf:

Probably at our last home game this season, in an attempt to distract attention form how dissatisfied the fans are, how shite the team is and from what a complete useless senile old fool we have in charge.
