By Press Association Reporter Mohamed Al Fayed has hit back at Felix Magath after the Fulham manager blamed the club's former owner for their recent demise. The Cottagers were relegated from the Barclays Premier League in May, after 13 seasons, and a poor start to life in the Sky Bet Championship saw fans of the club calling for the manager to be sacked. Magath told the London Evening Standard Al Fayed 'had not spent money', despite injecting around £200million into the club in 16 years to take them to the Premier League. He also claimed, under Al Fayed's ownership, Fulham 'sold the best players and brought in average players. You cannot go on doing that for a long time.'
