Seeing it in person, I didn't think it was too bad. Apart from the eyes, was just something about the eyes that put me off a little.

 Why is Ernie wearing a mask? Is he one of the Beagle Boys?

... holy crap, I just realised. He's nothing but a repurposed EAGLE BOYS mascot.

(Yes, they still have that pizza chain in Oz.)

Even a chicken needs privacy.  He probably has a wife and three eggs at home who do not need the glare of the paparazzi and the twitter snipes from other chickens.

He might be just a chicken to you, but he's a cock to me.

I said "probably" - there is always still hope.  I<3 Nix/Lia - ask Ernie if he can dress up in a Vinnie costume...

Great twitter account too.  Essex has a lion  - we've got our cock.

and as for mascots again, it is a distraction from the football
 
(though that fight between the Wolves mascot and the Pigs (Bristol City ) a few years back, was a bit of  a classic)

Sort of lacks the regal, mystical qualities I would associate with a true Phoenix. Looks like someone mugged the KFC mascot.
