THE idea of a statue to commemorate the memory of Stan Mortenson, as this scheme gathers momentum one has to ask what has happened to all the other schemes that have been mooted over the years to commemorate other respected people, Reg Dixon or Charlie Caroli?
Surely to erect a statue to one individual in favour of the others that have been in the pipeline for so long has got to be a snub, after all, Reg Dixon and Charlie Caroli held sway for a longer period of time than Morty and probably entertained a larger amount of people during their respected positions.
