    Can’t remember seeing much about about it and I’ve been in pretty much every part of the stadium.

    Pretty sure his image is one of the banners surrounding the stadium.

    Edit; St Roch's stadium is also named after him.

    Cheers. Wondered if there was something more permanent though. I'm sure if the museum ever gets done then he'll be featured.

    There's a mural at St Roch's stadium that was done a few years ago.

    Pretty sure those paintings are photoshopped but that's a cracking loft conversion. :giggle1:

    Found this pic of his family standing in front of it:
