Holy Trinity Statue

[blulouie]

I don't hate it but I don't love it either. If that was done for 3 great players that were from different eras it would have made sense. But these were together on the same pitch. I would have loved to have seen something that showed some interaction between them. They might of well just had separate statues as it stands.

But saying that the casts look decent and the base doesn't look like it came out of a cracker.

Same thoughts.
Looks very good but think they have missed a trick not putting them in a line as we all associate them .

....lovely moment for Colin Harvey, his family and old teammates I can see in the crowd. Everton greats all of them, epitomised in a fitting tribute.

I hope the people of the area respect it ahead of its permanent home at BMD.

Wouldn't surprise to see a tin of red paint over it tonight Eggs.

For players who seemed to have such a telepathic understanding with each other on the pitch, I find it strange that the statue should show them running away from each other in opposite directions.

Exactly my thoughts. Think it's quite weird

Where are they going?

 

[allezlesbleus]

It is a good monument to them but the iconic version would have been better imo.

Where are they going?

Bramley Moore

Bramley Moore

And none of them know the way so they split up? I don't usually moan but it's a pretty bad representation

I think it;s superb. I also think that the way they're arranged is perfect for the position it's in. Whichever way you approach the ground you have one of the trinity facing you.
For those moaning that they should be in line, I noticed that the three bases are in fact seperate, which means that depending on where they are sited at Bramley Moore, they may well be placed in line.

Where are they going?

Can't tell for sure, but I think Howard is off to Stanley Park, Alan is off to Walton Hall and Colin is off to a pub down County road.

Decent?

Those 3 deserve far more than decent.

Lovely n'all that, blah, blah, blah...

They had one job.

A statue of that photograph would, I agree, have been perfect, but the one unveiled today is better than I imagined it to be.

Looks good lit up too.

Think it looks amazing and i really like the unique arrangement.

A statue of this picture would have been perfect.......

Stick with my original thought, it's just not what it should be all in a line not facing away from each other. On a side note did anyone listen to Alan Ball's son on radio Merseyside after the match talking about the statue, you would swear it was his dad( in his later years) sounds exactly like him.

Harvey himself, plus Howard's and Bally's families were all consulted on the layout of the statues and they were all in favour of what we say today.
