    It is called "Man Holding his Ball". Michelangelo did it and it is now in the Uffizi Gallery in Florence.

    Ah yes, good old Ted 'Milan' Bates - not the sculptor's finest moment, nor indeed the club's for putting it up.

    Still, at least we deal with our eyesores - perhaps Stuey's Tesco bribe will allow you to do the same with yours..

    That sculptor had to have a sense of humour.

    Sculptor: "Well they asked for a sculpture of a man Master Bates so I gave them a statue of a w@nker."

    If you put those arms to their full length towards the ground the knuckles would drag on the floor. Highly appropriate.
