Would anyone else like to see a CCFC mural somewhere around the ground/in the city? Always see them on the way to away games and think they add something. Examples below, no idea how they get done

Is the one on Starley Road not the official squad portrait for this season?

Some good artwork has gone up around town in recent years. Would be good for some of our talented artists to get something together.

My lad and I went on an Anfield tour back in June, which was ace, would really recommend it. Anyway, in the surrounding streets there are tons of murals from players and managers from Shankley to Klopp. They look really good. Be nice if we could have a few around the CBS, but due to where it is, that wouldn't be easy.

suspect if I rocked up and starting slapping sky blue paint all over the gaff someone might tell me off

It depends who you are of course.

Would love to see more murals, I feel like we have a really supportive fanbase, especially considering we’re not a massive city like Leicester, Leeds, Manchester etc, so could definitely see that there would be demand for this sort of thing. The bigger the club looks the better.

I know the guy whos done most the stuff around the city and for city of culture. ive done few projects with them, biggest thing is funding as costs a lot to get it done in time and paints, and most the time no one willing to fund it and the artists are fed up of paying for it all themselves

The one on the side of Dhillons portraying a certain someone in sunglasses, will assumedly be replaced before the start of the season

Growing up in N.Ireland, I was used to murals on the sides of houses.

A mural of Robins, Adi, Doyle, Godden, Vik, Hamer, MacFadz etc would be better though than those with support for organisations like the UDA, UFF, UVF etc, with men in balaclavas and rifles etc.

I'd happily see that man painted in "Pride" colours and then airdropped into Taliban HQ

The Farke one near Carrow Road was good (painted over now) One of Robins would be good near the stadium.

Under the railway bridge at the end of Hen lane would be a good spot for a mural.

Maybe it’s something the club are looking at, they did do the big flag last season working with Covcept to do the artwork.

It is quite big I think, wiki says it’s 11th biggest in England. It’s bigger than us anyway.

Really? Even if correct calling it a 'massive' city is stretching things a little.
