Wondering if Fulham fans are proud of their new mascot?

[Asterix]

Heee Heee! Ow!

What a random thing to have/happen at Craven Cottage. Quite bonkers.

and there was me thinking the guy was dressed up as bo selecta in todays game

Looking forward to Mr levy sanctioning the Chaz & Dave statue when the new stadium gets built

[Gun]

Just seen the statue on the news, proof positive that Al Fayed is barmy. Wonder how long it'll be before it gets defaced?

[sleep envy]

A remnant of his harrods days - it was supposed to be placed outside of door 5 at harrods but he couldn't get planning for it

I wonder why...

[dmulally]

Is this serious? I cant tell if its April fools or not.

I walked past this the yesterday. It's bloody horrible and only looks a little bit like MJ - Fulham fans (which I'm not) will cringe with embarrassment every time they walk past it, it's ridiculous. Whether it should be there or not is a different matter though - Al Fayed paid with his own money for the club and is the sole owner, so IMO the prat can do what he wants.

Shamone Mother fker!

[Tycho]

£100K!!!!!! How?

Fulhams shorts are black. Their shirts are white.

..I suppose it doesn't matter.

...as long as the games a Thriller...

Supporters are rattled...

Fayed tells them to bugger off and support Chelsea...

...oh, my aching ribs

I AFPMSL at that...superb.

good banter all round

I'm a season ticket holder and saw the Jackson statue at yesterday's game. Looks bloody awaful and to top it off he only ever visited the Cottage once

[Dumm Arschloch]

I have not followed this story with great interest, to be honest, but could one possible motivation be to get Wacko Jacko fans to come and watch Fulham play football?

And he did have quite a large fanbase, old Wacko Jacko, if memory serves me well.

I'm not to sure about that, we sell out virtually every game at home now. Could just be Al-Fayed is losing even more marbles than before!

Yes, he is nuts, but he had this hideous thing made for Harrods. Presumably the new owners didn't want it, so he was left with £100,000 of tat and nowhere to put it.

Then he had an idea...

Personally, I'd have sent it to our lads in Afghanistan for target practice...it's worse than the Wing'd Horse of Chavtat, and not much else is.

Putting the MJ statue to one side, what has Al-Fayed been like as Fulham owner? Are most fans happy with his reign?

The Al is like you calling yourself Lord Victor McDade...

He's been very good tbh, he's subsidised ticket prices, bought players and coaching staff in on big, sometimes unjustified, wages and kept us in a relatively in the black in regards to finances. He's also not come in and tried to make a fast buck out of the club and fans unlike Glazer at Man Utd and Shinawatra when he was at Man City, he's also not as crazy as fat Mike Ashley at Newcastle! YET!!

[Jasey@]

I reckon I could do better myself.



It's almost as bad as the one of Diana & Dodi in harrods (Looks like the same blind sculptor's work though)
