I read it yesterday. Excellent piece, very interesting. I will probably get the book.

We really do do it to ourselves

Loved this.

Unfort I am not a STH and in NY and my game viewership has taken a toll since Covid, but before that I was in a handful of times a year. Because of our Fulham bond, I consider most the people I've met from coming to matches great friends and now known some for decades it seems. You can substitute the names in that story with those in your section or that you've known from Fulham and it's auto-biographical.

Between this and the Ream thread, it's feel good day at Fof and I approve of that!

Beautiful piece. I've never quite built that sort of relationship with a fellow STH but there was a guy called Colin who worked with British Transport Police who became a valued acquaintance for a while. My wife and I don't see him at the Hammy End any more and do rather miss him. We were at Hamburg together twice (semi and the final), great times.
