West Ham Statue poll results revealed

Supporters believe the club should commission a replica of the East Ham World Cup Champions Statue if they can’t move the real thing to Stratford.

That is the result of a Claret and Hugh which asked what the subject of a West Ham statue should be after Karren Brady revealed earlier this week she had reached an agreement with LLDC to put a statue on the empty plinth in Champions Place outside the London Stadium.

With 1,190 voting in the poll 20.67% (246) thought that a replica of Bobby Moore, Sir Geoff Hurst and Martin Peters in the World Cup pose would be the most fitting statue. A statue of Bobby Moore and Billy Bonds together was a close second with 16.97% (202) votes.

A statue of Bobby Moore on his own pulled in 15.38% (183) votes and a statue of Billy Bonds on his own pulled in 12.44% (148) possibly due to news he is soon to get the East Stand named after him. Sir Trevor Brooking came in fourth place with (8.4%) 100 votes.

Others included John Lyall 6.22% (74) Sam Allardyce 5.04% (60) Ron Greenwood 4.03% (48) Dimi Payet 2.27% (27) West Ham Board 1.6% (19)

The European Cup Winners Cup 1965 team pulled in just 2.35% (28) the 1980 FA Cup team 1.68% (20) 1975 FA Cup team 0.08% (1) FA Cup 1974 0.6% (7)  The remaining 2.27% (27) decided none of the above should get a statue with suggestions of Maro Boogers, Benni Mccarthy, Canning Town Len and one fan’s mum some of the less serious suggestions.
