The firm has now withdrawn the four-inch £4.99 figurines, which, its website says, were dreamed up by “ex-football hooligan” Rob Edwards, a 31-year-old Shrewsbury Town supporter.

A CONTROVERSIAL new range of “football hooligan” dolls have been slammed by Bolton Wanderers‘ chief executive Allan Duckworth and the Premier League.

Britain’s top soccer league is considering legal action against a firm which makes “hooligan” dolls. Premier League lawyers are assessing whether the manufacturer is likely to have breached clubs’ intellectual property rights, a spokesman said. The Little Hooliganz figurines are dressed in different football clubs’ colours. London-based firm Blighty Collectables launched the range five months ago. Premier League chief spokesman Dan Johnson said legal action had previously been taken against firms that used football clubs’ colours or logos without permission. “If they are infringing clubs’ intellectual property, then we will take them to court.”

Never been to Spain, although the super reds have fair few Spanish in the team these days.

Hay para todos los gustos. Tenemos a ‘Slap Head Nick’, el gamberrito del Liverpool, con su cabeza rapada a cero y una inquietante cicatriz en plena cabeza. También aparece ‘Dangerous Dirk’ (el peligroso Dirk), que representa al Chelsea y ensaya una toma de karate con sus inmensos puños.

Y luego tenemos a ‘Cool Boy Cristopher’, que viste una camiseta del Manchester United y tiene algún que otro aire a Cristiano Ronaldo, aunque el punta portugués no sea precisamente un ‘hooligan’…

Pero el asunto es que todos estos muñequitos, con cara de malos, bordean la ‘ilegalidad’. Hace cinco meses que se están comercializando, con buen suceso de ventas, y la Premier League ha visto ya suficiente.

I think the spanish quite like us Little Hooliganz or violentos del fútbol británico as is says on this blog site!

Anyway some pictures of the boys on this blog!
