Maybe the goal celebrations should now include 'crotch-grabbing' and 'moon-walking' backwards. Roll Eyes

Nice to see fellow Fulham fans on here!
Having seen the statue at last yesterday i have to say it was even worse than i imagined; so tacky and cheap looking, how much did Uncle Mo pay to have it made?
It is out of place but then Mo is the owner, he can do what he likes. I suspect it will quietly be moved in the summer.

They're putting one of Jim Bowen outside the emirates. As fans walk past it's going to say 'Oooooo, look what you could have won.'

Its very fitting.

  1. It looks out of place
  2. Has a plastic appearance
  3. Wont weather well with age


Perfect really!

Yes, but he's more West Ham - but I agree - if you're going to have a statue, at least make it relevant for generations of fans....although having seen the MJ effort I'd guess all ex Fulham players will feel they've dodged a bullet  Grin

As a 30 year season ticket holder at Fulham i got to see the statue yesterday.
Whilst i do not think that it is worthy of being sited in the most beautiful football ground in the country we
have to remember that it is owned by Mo and he has the right to put it where he likes.
It was originally to be located at Harrods but when he sold it it had to go somewhere else.
As long as he keeps pushing money into the club, carry on mate.
Please just dont put Bubbles there as well that would be too much tto handle.
But , if it had to go there why is it such poor quality?  Shocked
