Grantham Town make 'alternate Margaret Thatcher proposal'
| Updated: 11:21, 01 April 2021
In a statement released this morning, Grantham Town made their own proposal concerning the Margaret Thatcher statue set for St. Peter's Hill.
Although the club "has no desire to wade into the ongoing political debate regarding the merits, location and funding of the statue or otherwise," they have considered that "a more apolitical approach is required for the vacant plinth."
The Gingerbreads are therefore suggesting that the statue artist Douglas Jennings could melt the bronze statue down and create a statue befitting a local legend.
Grantham Town legend, Adrian Speed. (45740645)
That local legend, of course, being Adrian Speed, the club's record appearance holder, with 633 games in black and white.
