England boss lends his support to Fulham fundraiser

On Tuesday night, Roy Hodgson and his squad were invited to the special fundraiser for World Cup hero George Cohen. 

The England manager took part in a Q&A with the BBC in order to help raise money. 

Fulham have commissioned a statue of the former defender who spent his entire career with the Championship club, playing 459 times for the club between 1956 and 1969.

Shahid Khan, the chairman, has pledged to pay for half of the £200,000 cost for the statue if supporters can raise the other £100,000. 

So far, fans have raised more than £57,000 ahead of the May 9 deadline.
