EDEN CONFIDENTIAL: Royal revamp for hooligans' top clobber Stone Island as Cassius Taylor is hired to help transform the brand's image

I can disclose that Cassius Taylor has been recruited by Stone Island, the brand beloved of football hooligans.

Cassius, 27, who was educated at Wellington College, Berkshire, and Goldsmiths, University of London, is a son of Lady Helen and her husband, the art dealer Timothy Taylor. Not only did the tickets come free — courtesy of West Ham, whose major shareholders include publisher David Sullivan and Vanessa Gold, head of the Ann Summers sex-shop chain — but so did 'pre-match hospitality' in the Chairman's Lounge. The fourth plinth in Trafalgar Square, which currently carries the statue of an African revolutionary who urged his followers to murder whites, should instead be used to honour late actor Lord Olivier, says Hollywood baddie Steven Berkoff.
