Chairman Mohamed al-Fayed moved to show his continued commitment to Fulham yesterday by appointing his son Karim as vice-chairman.

"I am very happy to be given this role," said Karim Fayed, whose father took over the club in 1997 and has overseen its rise from the third to the top flight. "I share my dad's passion and commitment to this club from its glorious past heritage to its long-term future and growth."
