#8 Oldham Athletic

Number 8. Oldham Athletic. Today's mascot is a little different. Chaddy the Owl has been photographed making a rather large fool of himself more than once. In the first picture he has managed to fall off a bike, maybe he should get stabilizers. In the second picture he seems to be getting cosy with another football mascot who cannot be named. In the third picture he seems to be crying whilst being taken away by either paramedics or stewards - I don't know but either way there's something funny going on. Also Chaddy has been reported to have been in a fight with Bloomfield bear after throwing his football boots into the crowd. At a game with Doncaster Rovers, Mr Owl had to be escorted out of the ground after encouraging a riot with the fans.


This may not be a chicken but Chaddy the Owl is definitely not a good role model for young Latics fans.

#7 Liverpool FC


Number 7. Liverpool Football Club. I know you've all heard of Liverpool and its Liverbirds but making little children dress up as a chicken in disguise is just appalling. It may not be an actual mascot but the only reason is because no adult is stupid enough to dress up as this particular chicken making the only option to dress up vulnerable children. I think this poor child looks sort of confused about wearing chicken head and I think the photographer thought that confusion could be mistaken with cuteness - not with me! Also, I have noticed that the creator of this outrageous costume might have stolen Father Christmas' famous boots.

A child dressed as a Chicken. Poor Kid.

#6 Southend United


Number 6. Southend United. This particular mascot is supposedly a shrimp but to me it rather looks like a carrot that has been painted light grey. Do shrimps even look like that? Also, its freakishly large smile looks like its been carved out of a stone - not a good look to have.

... I'm sorry, I just can't get over his pointed head, surely shrimps don't have heads shaped like that! It looks more like a squid than a shrimp, but at least it doesn't look like a chicken!


Not a Chicken - Shame.

#5 Brighton & Hove Albion


Number 5. Brighton & Hove Albion. I feel sorry for this intruding Chicken because a real Seagull has made its nest on his head. I also believe that the Chicken in question has just been caught out in the photo as he has his hands up and he looks like he's about to pee himself.

Carrying on with sympathy, the poor Chicken has to carry his massive size 14 feet that have very strange football boots on, but what can I say, it's his own fault for impersonating a Seagull when he's a Chicken.

Defiantly a Chicken. No doubt about it.

#4 Tottenham Hotspurs

Number 4. Tottenham Hotspurs, more commonly known as 'Spurs'. Today's mascot is an actual chicken, just a male chicken. And he does look rather intimidating, his beady eyes seem to stare at only one thing at a time. Furthermore, his banana beak looks like it has been stapled threw just above the opening and his mohican needs to be straightened out as its a bit fluffy, all this makes him look like a four year old punk rocker who got his hands on a stapler and a few safety pins. This over-powering looking bird also has a freakish resemblance to the Bald Eagle out of the world loved Muppet Show which I found quite alarming.

Are these people trying to make him look friendly? If they are, it isn't working, he looks like his aim in life is to hypnotize little children.

It is a chicken, just a Male Chicken.

#3 Crystal Palace FC


Number 2. Crystal Palace's Pete the Eagle. Above is what the alledged 'eagle' looks like..., to me it looks rather like a chicken wearing sun glasses and in American Football kit.
This is a terrible attempt to disguise the Chicken in question and it looks like its an amateur-dramatics costume from a group that has a very low budget. The Chicken's eye brows are higher than the Himalayan Mountains and it looks like an old man's chest hair is exploding out of the shirt.
A poor excuse for an Eagle.
Obviously a Chicken.

#2 Bristol City


Number 2. Bristol City. Quite clearly meant to be a Robin but also quite clearly one of the most tattiest footballl mascots of all time. As it also massively loooks like a chicken.

The beak which is obviously a painted wizard's hat is carelessly strapped around the imposting chicken's head which is covered with Wally's hat. And to end, the Chicken's poor attempt to disguise as a Robin is hugely ruined by the terrible stitching of red stomach. It looks like a blind woman with no idea how a robin should look and a surplus of thick cheap twine has been asked to make a robin costume. For a chicken.

Obviously a chicken. Enjoy.
