Old Trafford has The Holy Trinity of Charlton, Best and Law. I would like to see Bamber, Mullery and Ward. I really do think there should be some recognition of what Mike Bamber did for the club.

Dick knight without him there wouldn't be an amex
With dick knight we'd probably have gone bust pal regardless as bloom saved his God like status by paying off the millions of pounds of debts left behind by knight...That's another story and Knights not the one I want outside the amex as he should be grateful to have a bar named after him.

Peter ward is sung decades after and hes the only one worthy of a statue:thumbsup:

Dick Knight's not any sort of God but he was a bloke who stuffed a couple of million of his own fairly limited pounds into the club when no one else was coming forward and by ducking and diving and begging and scrounging kept the show on the road until the stadium permission was granted and Tony Bloom arrived to save the day so I guess some of us will find your attitude
unfathomably mean-spirited.

Your second point is bang-on though.

Can't we just buy a bit of Edgar Street to put outside somewhere as a reminder of how close we came to extinction.

Probably pick it up quite cheap at the moment.

Good suggestions so far, but how about Tommy Cook? Our all time top scorer and I don't think he's even on the wall outside the west?
