I'll be there I'm really looking forward to it, it adds another layer of specialness to EP, now the Co-op isn't focussed on having to save the club it's good to see such positive projects like this, the community tickets and the half marathon.

Everyone will still get a chance to see the statue and I will ask Hannah is she can meet the fans outside, if we get a break in hospitality.

Very rarely been so determined to be anywhere, even in ill-health. We were Danny Bergara's Blue and White Army and we remain so and always will be.

I think it looks great. I just hope he can get a more prominent position when the stadium redevelopment is complete. He needs to be on a much higher plinth eventually, hopefully with steps going up to it.

From what I can see on the photos it looks really good. Sometimes these statues can be a real disappointment but it does look like Danny. Hope the family are pleased with the result, that's the most important thing.

Whilst I understand putting him on a plinth might be seen as respectful I think he should stay at groundish level, he came across very grounded and if he could be asked I reckon that's where he'd want to be. Better still if the whole car park could be a designated a fan zone on match days, no cars allowed, food, drinks, photo ops with players and now statues.

Wow, well done to all who put in the effort to deliver this piece of art to the faithful. Danny was before my time as a County supporter, but I have loved reading about his time in County histroy books, and the reflections of those on the board that were there.
