Bronze statue of a lion going up somewhere?

Usually one each side of the drive on a modest semi-detached and some off coloured double glazing.

For those not on twitter can someone summarise what this news is.

They’re putting up a bronze lion statue somewhere around the ground. It’s a teaser trailer so you don’t see the whole thing - it says coming soon.

It's basically footage of some welders (which initially raises hopes of a North Stand redevelopment) quickly followed by an artistic lady looking thoughtful, and moulding clay into something that looks like a lion's mane. It's not worth joining X for.

Damn it. Here was me hoping it would be the long awaited theme  park

[Drummond]

Going in the North Stand car park isn't it?

And that post isn't there any more.

[Ducksworthy]

On Twitter? Still there for me

It's your typical Chris Heck era Villa social media post.

Made out to be a big announcement so you think it might be about redevelopment or something big but it turns out to be a a load of fuss over very little. probably to be erected on top of the old North Stand as the headstone for the dead redevelopment.

It’s up their with how excited we was about digital advertising hoardings.

Future post predictions:

- the head is too big
- the paws are way too small
- it looks like a slightly camp stray cat
- it's facing the wrong way
- it doesn't look scary at all
- it should be rearing up at a different angle
- the colour is all wrong

They'll blame Trump for that.

- I don’t understand why it’s got a swastika on its chest

- Why can I hear it talking to me but nobody else can?

- It should have been of Ron Saunders

A bare-chested Ron Saunders riding on top of a slightly camp lion.

A bit like that photo of Vladimir Putin on a horse, but with Saunders looking way more manly.

[Olneythelonely]

My prediction is a lion with the face of Eamonn Holmes.

[Hopadop]

A bare chested, manly, Ron Saunders riding a satanic Ozzy, huge batwings outstretched. Clutching McGregor's letter in one talon and the European cup in the other.

Don't tell me that wouldn't tick all the boxes.
