May pop to this, feels like a big step for us as a club etc. it’s opening up sheepfolds more etc.
 
Why the hell is there a flag for Kone? There’s about 500 other players in the club’s history you’d have ahead of him. Minor issue obviously and it isn’t a moan, more just a surprising observation.
Im guessing its an image off the Everton game? Was an important game like so makes sense

Relegated the mags tbf, that was very funny. Billy Jones should get one as well.
He didn’t even get all our goals that night so we’d have relegated them anyway. Just think with the way he conducted himself afterwards he doesn’t really warrant being remembered imo.

True, what followed the next season always sours it a bit like although relegating them again was very funny but he hardly single handedly was responsible for it.

Is a pretty odd choice mind. You'd have thought if its "moments that matter" there'd be one for Watson? But hey, I'm too old to argue the toss about it. Maybe scope to add more on the other stadium side? The pictures they had along the sheepfolds used to be canny till they left them to rot to the elements
