"Mr Al Fayed rose from selling fizzy drinks on the streets of his native Alexandria in Egypt to become a big name in business with all the right contacts.
His break came after he met his first wife, Samira Khashoggi, the sister of Saudi millionaire arms dealer Adnan Khashoggi - who employed him in his Saudi Arabian import business."

Dodgy business dealings, Wacko statue and conspiracy theories aside Dodi's Dad is a nailed on Fulham legend.
Never accepted by the British establishment he lapped up the adulation of the Fulham fan's.

Something he had said they would have to do back the previous August.

@Tim Never really cared for him either but I think he was popular because his songs were easy to sing along with. As my friend said, His songs create an island escapism that allow you to feel like you are somewhere else. They are usually happy songs and paint a great picture.
