I think the sentiment is great,however I suspect the club will be looking for a name on a stand that costs around £25k in sponsorship.

Does Sir Alex have to sponsor his stand at Old Trafford?

We're hardly talking clubs with a like for like comparison here regarding sponsorship and income are we ?
I'm all for Ernie's contribution to the history of CFC being honoured in any way possible,but given the clubs current financial position they can hardly afford to turn down circa £25k a year for stand naming rights can they ?

Agree totally,perhaps when the Just Giving page for Team Ernie ends we could explore the options to start funding this ?

Personally I'd favour the statue in a prominent position on 'Ernie Moss Way' leading down to the ground.

Your are on fire at the moment! A great idea and what better time for the club to contact you or fan represetatives regarding this idea to move forward with a joint venture to make this happen.
A conciliation olive branch opportunity?
One can only hope for a reasoned path to solve this impasse.

Billy Wright at Moulinex

Stan Matthews at Stoke
Jackie Milburn at Newcastle
Jimmy Hill at Coventry
All quality
Brian Clough and Peter Taylor at Derby is an excellent example.

I quite like the Cloughie & Taylor one at Derby as well.

I've no idea of the cost of a statue,however a few calls early next week will give us a good idea.
