A statue of the controversial pop singer Michael Jackson, whose removal was blamed for Fulham FC's relegation, found a new home in Manchester before being removed from public display.
The 7ft 6in statue made from plaster and resin was commissioned by the football club's former chairman Mohamed Al-Fayed and put on display outside the stadium in 2011. As soon as the statue was unveiled it sparked a backlash from fans, who were less than thrilled.
One was quoted as saying: "We're a laughing stock. It has nothing to do with football." Another said: "It makes the club look silly. I thought it was an April Fools joke."
