Mohammed Al Fayed believes the removal of the infamous 7’6″ Michael jackson statue cost the Whites their spot in the Premier League, with the team’s “luck” leaving when the statue was taken from its grounds.

http://prosoccertalk.nbcsports.com/2014/05/07/former-fulham-owner-says-removal-of-michael-jackson-statue-caused-club-to-be-relegated/

“This statue was a charm and we removed the luck from the club and now we have to pay the price,” Fayed said. “When [Khan] asked me to move it I said: ‘You must be crazy.’ This is such a fantastic statue which the fans are crying out for. But now he has paid the price because the club has been relegated. He called me because he told me he wanted Michael to return. I told him, no way."

In all seriousness, i can't blame Fulham's demise on the statue. I blame it on the boogie.

    The relegation fight was a Thriller, but in the end Fulham were Bad , so now they can Beat It to the Championship.

    Fayed is still pissed off about all that stuff with Dirty Diana.

    Fayed is clearly Off The Wall. It's obviously not as Black or White as he stats. Just makes you want to Scream.

    They signed Mahamadou Diarra hoping for a Malian man, but instead he played like a moonwalker!

    Fourty points is normally seen as the number of points needed to stay in the Premier League. Magath should have told the players "Don't Stop Til You Get Enough".

    (As soon as I seen this thread I just knew pretty much every single post would be a Michael Jackson song pun!:D)

    I guess its "Human Nature" but I always "Say Say Say" to my "Girlfriend" "Billie Jean" they don't "Wanna Be Startin' Something" as I predicted it was "Dangerous" to allow the "Smooth Criminal" new owner to remove MJ's statue.

    They thought they would "Never Can Say Goodbye", as they thought it was as easy as "ABC", but they played like "Strangers in Moscow" so now they are EPL "History".

    Fulham's lack of talent assured that their future in the Premiership was dangling, much like a baby over the balcony.

    It wasn't a case of black or white - they just were just too bad to beat the rest...

    To think they were full of such promise at the start of the season, particularly with Darren Bent in on loan. Rodallega was saying how they could be a perfect strike partnership, remarking of Bent 'the two of us need look no more, we've both found what we were looking for'.
