John Hewitt Statue

[Lencarl]

We should erect one for him at our NEW Stadium if and when it is built. Never mind Fergie, he already has a statue at Man United. Hewitt is an Aberdonian so it must be him.

[Chewie37]

Nah a statue of Dick Donald and Chris Anderson, name a stand after John Hewitt

What should we call his stand?

[tightbreeks]

the standy mcstand.

 

wankity wank.

[Andy_123]

Miller holding aloft the cup winners cup and Hewitt celebrating side by side would be an ace statue as you enter the new stadium

 

The new stadium won't be here for another 25 years though

[Poodler]

We'll have won it again by then, a 30yo Deano C lifting the trophy high after papping Barca 4-0

[V for Vendetta]

If we ever build a new stadium I say we have a statue of whoever actually pulls of attaining the planning consent...

 

Ideally they should be dressed as Snake Plissken, high fiving Mickey Mouse and getting a blowjob from Shakira.

 

 

Of course, it we won't ever build a new stadium.

Bring the cup winners cup home

A statue of Chris Maguire cupping his ears facing the ground

Or Mark Kerr telling us all to fuck off

The tackle that incited the rivalry between Aberdeen and Rangers that still boils to this day. The tackle is quite literally horrific. High, studs-up, premeditated, leaving Rangers player Ian Durrant unable to play for the next three years. Yet the tackle transcended boundaries between pitch and stand. It survived generations and is still an area of severe unrest between the fans of the rival teams 23 years on.

 

Durrant eventually sued Simpson for damages in relation to the incident. Simpson, in the face of much hostility settled with Durrant out of court and the man few had known about resumed his unspectacular career. The world was different though and the name of Neil Simpson will not be forgotten in Glasgow and beyond for a moment of madness that he has lived to regret.

 

Now that would be some statue. A warning to all teams before playing us.

[The Oxford Don]

It should really be a statue of Steve Paterson climbing into the boot of a car.

 

Or a massive toaster.

[Poodler]

LOL unspectacular career.

 

European champion

[Clydeside_Sheep]

Id like a statue of Hewitt in his famous "star jump" pose, if we cant have that then a statue of General Franco in honour of our beaten opponents Real Madrid

Where did you copy that shite from? Worthy of a ban, posting that, imho.

 

Any statue of Simpson should be 50ft tall and situated somewhere between Stonehaven and Portlethen by the N bound a90.

[manboobs109]

Surely only dead cunts should have statues?

How long do you think it takes to handcarve a 50ft statue out of granite?

[dave_min]

65 man hours.

[tightbreeks]

The tackle is a good idea. It should show the inside of wee durranties leg, all the ligaments and bones a snappin' and a crackin'.

 

With simmy's face showin true grit and determination to win and destroy.

[Chewie37]

What should we call his stand?

The Supersub Stand? The Hewitts Waiting in the Middle. Or the JH112

 

Although the Simmy statue would be interesting, a giant Simmy standing squishing a mini lizard like Durrant in a small Pittodrie, like something out of Jason and the Argonauts?

[tightbreeks]

Talos, the bronze giant had a weak spot in his ankle. Much like Durants weak lower leg.

Perfectly good tackle made to look bad because Durrant didn't have the vision or wherewithal to see a hard but fair incoming challenge and take avoiding action.

 

I'd also point out that while the media has attempted to portray Simmie's aforementioned hard but fair challenge as the catalyst for the 'rivalry' betwen Aberdeen and the now defunct Rangers, Willie Johnston's attempted murder of John McMaster preceded Simmie's hard but fair challenge by almost a decade. The Dons player's death only averted by McMaster being given the kiss of life on the field.

 

I'd go along with a Simmie statue if only because he was fucking magic.

[BWG]

Plus Durrant dived anyway

Statue could be made based on your drawing of the tackle of some years back Kelt.

 

A true piece of work.

[Robbie Winters]

Michael Jackson

Norman Goldie or Wee Alickie for me

[Patty]

A Simmy statue you say?

Someone on this forum should put up a Photoshop statue of this tackle. Would be good to see what it would like in bronze.

[tightbreeks]

Get those North korean slaves to build it. They do a class bronze or else they get bunged in a gulag. Plus they'll do it for booze, fags, and food. A few dollars to the boss and ta-da a cheap amazing statue.

I would buy a miniature bronze of this tackle.
