Not sure how this all works, "we need £100k to build a statue " , how long does it take to construct a statue ?
I would like to think it's well under way by now, what happens if the money isn't raised do we stiff the sculptor for the money ?

Question was asked at the top of the second page.

But what if the first £100k doesn't get raised ? Surely it's getting built anyway .

Is there a contact number I can call with regard to the donations for George?  I want to have my father's name engraved on the plinth
but it doesn't seem to add another a field whereby I can put his name instead of mine.  Any help much appreciated.


I've done exactly the same, reserved a spot on the plaque for my late father who was an avid Fulham and George Cohen fan.

Yes Steven we were so chuffed to be able to do that for my Dad who died in 2003.  He was, like your Dad a massive Fulham and George Cohen fan so I think it is very fitting and I know Dad would be so pleased, especially as he was cremated and doesn't have plaque.  I know he would much prefer this to say a memorial bench.  The family always planned to do something and now this has come up it is absolutely perfect!  When I made the donation I was advised they may be able to put "In memory of" before the name but that they will contact us nearer the time to finalise details.

A lot of questions are asked on the Tifosy website.  Yes, it will be built regardless of whether the money is raised.

And of course its also for the charity's  involved, so just because the statue is guaranteed these should not be forgotten either.

There were originally 75 Cohen shirts (look back on thread) but now it has been cut to 25

Who is handling the sale ?  Mossack Fonseca?
Remember you are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.
I will be as good as I can be and when I cross the finishing line I will see what it got me

Yes I know, I've noticed that also.

I just tweet what's on the link on the original post. It's changed a couple of times I believe elsewhere.

BestOfBrede

Was it someone on here that outbid me for the Cottage seats for MK?
If so, was it worth it?

How nice of our billionaire owner to match the money put up by people a lot less wealthy than him. Given the shambles he has made of our club I think a statue is the least he can do.
You came all this way ... and you lost, and you lost.
