King John has been denied a statue like our Billy because of lack of funds. Instead there is a proposal to rename South Leeds Stadium the 'John Charles Stadium' . What do you think? I think it is a shame as the big man deserves a statue but lets be honest, having a whole stadium named after you isn't a bad accolade is it? As long as the contract is set in stone that the name will never be changed I think it is a great idea.. You?

To be honest - a statue is likely to be a laster longer memorial. New generations of people in decades to come will probably not even be aware of who the stadium was named after. A statue and plaque however - makes it plain and simple!
