    He went from "the worst signing Fulham ever made" to Mr. Indespensible. I always had a lot of respect for him.

    I remember watching Baird’s first match with Fulham and thinking Fulham would have made a better interest if they had bought orange traffic cones but Bairdinho was an real pro during his time in White.

    Don't own too many jerseys (well, besides, all the Fulham ones...) but his name is the only personalized jersey I own.

    Don't really see that changing soon, if ever

    Here's a couple of his goals (he was a defender, of course, so not many), including one stuck in between two from Ruiz and Berba, and a red card for Northern Ireland.

    I still have a very distinct memory of watching Baird score two goals in the first 10 minutes against Stoke in December 2010. It was over the holidays and I made plans to watch with former board member RDG in Santa Monica. He was a few minutes late arriving to the pub (7am kickoff, perfectly understandable). When he walked in, it was already 2-0 and I got to share the news that both goals came courtesy of Bairdinho. Honestly one of my favorite FUSA memories.
