Fulham's wacko Jacko statue is history with Al Fayed set to remove Cottage eyesore



The ridiculed Michael Jackson statue at Craven Cottage is set to be removed by former owner Mohamed Al Fayed.



When Al Fayed put up the statue in 2011, he told fans they could ‘go to hell’ if they did not appreciate it.

Now it appears that Fayed — who sold the club to Shahid Khan, owner of the Jacksonville Jaguars in the NFL, for £150m this summer — wants to take the garish Jackson statue to another of his many properties.

Fayed had joked with Khan that there would be ‘big trouble’ if the sculpture disappeared.



The club’s new owners, who have no desire to keep it, are expecting the arrival of Fayed’s removal team.
