I don't know why I find it so funny. I think it's just knowing that they didn't check the cutouts before they put them up. There would have been so many opportunities.

 

[Jim Van Winkle]

How did no one at the club spot that beforehand.

To be fair the picture didn’t really look massively like him from the ‘famous’ photos - and didn’t they have 20k or so images. In the Leeds / Bradford area an Asian man with a beard is probably more common than in some areas...

Controversial

Thought it was brilliant. Made me chuckle anyway.

Did you get your cut out done so that you can finally say you’ve been to The Amex?

I’m half hoping somebody got it through as a laugh.

Suprised nobody tried Lord Lucan at the Amex

Yes! I’d like to see a few faces snuck in.

To be honest, I expected every single club to have been dealing with loads of these. Bin Laden, Jimmy Savile, Fred West, the Krays, Abu Hamza and loads of other various ne'er-do-wells.

Bin fest.

It brings back memories of Walkers Crisps campaign 3 years ago with Lineker and the likes of Fred West, Jimmy Savile, Harold Shipman, Rolf Harris, Stalin...

Belotti & Archer?

Belotti & Archer?

Maybe not THAT ne'er-do-well...

Palace should have had Hitler to see if their goalie recognised him

Yes, I was surprised our friends from up the road didn't try to slip in a Colin Ireland or Dennis Nilsen. Or maybe they did and our backroom staff are a bit more savvy

But he was on a camel with a gun over his shoulder.

 

[Poojah]

To be fair... they probably did check, but it's treading dangerous grounds, as there are some people who probably genuinely look like Osama Bin Laden.

You can just see it now...

"Err...boss. This one looks like Osama Bin Laden."

"You racist b*stard. I bet they all look the same to you, don't they? Get him on his seat and go clear your desk. You disgust me."

TBH this is yet another worry for Arsenal if one of their celebrity supporters has jumped ship this easily
