Title: NFR? Harry Wilson
Post by: Fulham 442 on July 08, 2026, 06:13:20 PM
Now officially gone.  Thanks for the memories Harry, especially your goals against Brentford.  I don't blame you for taking the money - the Leeds contract offer was just too good to turn down.  All the best for your future, unless you're playing us of course!!

I've criticised him at times, but he's undoubtedly one of our finest servants of recent years and his brilliant goals and assists will be missed. Good luck Harry and thanks for the memories.

I'm sorry to see him go but wish nothing but the best .im sure he'll get a decent welcome back on our pitch when we play Leeds .

Some Brentford fans I've been speaking to are glad you've moved on. I know we can rely on you to score against them again in future 🤣

He's still going to be the Brentford slayer, just for a different team haha

Tremendous player for us - his ability to find space and come up with a goal out of nowhere, is going to be sorely missed. Great bloke as well, by all accounts. Thanks for the memories, Harry ::scarf::

I reckon his heart was not in the club, but in the manager. Money talks louder than change methinks. I wish him well, but not against us.

I always wish players leaving us well and Harry is no exception.

Last season was clearly his stand out season and for a few months he looked a world beater. Unfortunately once wales were knocked out of the world cup he seemed to lose his appetite a bit. I think he needed the new challenge and am sure he will do well. Also at his time in his career, it was probably the last chance for such a move with the incentives they probably offered.... I hope it goes brilliantly except when they play us.

I watched his interview on Sky - he spoke very fondly of his time at Fulham, nice to hear.

I'm just sad how quickly he/any footballer can quickly use the term "we" to refer to his new club especially having spent five years at one place.

Good luck Harry. So many excellent goals scored but I will NEVER forget those two added time goals v Brentford.  That was the quickest I had been out of my seat without pain for years! thumb::  ::scarf::

Surely we have to hope following last season's purple patch he returns to struggling for game time and Leeds get relegated. Can't stand Leeds and their glory hunters.

Good luck Wilson - scored many great goals with Fulham and gave us some great moments

I was hoping there would be a compilation of his goals for us available but I don't suppose it is in the club's best interests to remind us of what we will be missing!

Sky seemed to love him last season, even when his form seriously dropped off.

Another issue for me is that defences know how to play him & steer him onto his right foot.

Obviously saw Fulham as just a wage packet, I've got no time for players like that. Give me someone like Tom Cairney every time. I hope Leeds get relegated.

I think last season was his purple patch, unlikely to be replicated, so not too disappointed that he has left. Was it just money? I can't see any other reason for him letting his contract run out and then signing for a team which is not playing European football next year. No ill will towards him if it was just money, that is his choice, and I won't boo him,  but equally not likely to give him a round of applause when he plays against us.
