Worst
Wanchope ....equaliser at Loftus Road.....irrational and don't know why but it killed me...nearest bad moment aside was when I nearly threw myself over putney bridge after the injustice over the league cup defeat against the scum in 83 or whenever it was.

Best
Dio at City.....you just had to be there.

So many to choose from!!!
Best: Davis v Blackburn, McAree v Carlisle, Away day at Cambridge Utd when we went up. Juve, Hamburg at home, 6-0 v QPR. Legwinski winner v Spurs 3-2. So many more.
Worst: Plenty to remember from the early 90's, thinking the club was going to fold. On the field, it really is hard to look past the The Europa Final, a great day but a terrible moment to end it.
I only started supporting Fulham properly since 96, so I've been pretty spoilt!
Best moments
Carlisle, the whole day, that goal, what it effectively meant. I still remember the inflatable Mr Blobby being thrown around.
Blackburn, to beat "the best team in the league" according to Souness (who I still dispise to this day) with 10 men, in injury time. Fantastic
Scoring in the second minute at Old Trafford in our first ever Premier League game
Portsmouth, Bullard cross, Murphy header!
Juve unbelievable come back, especially after going a goal down so early, just after I said to my mate "we need to keep it tight early on"
Atletico To witness to rise of the club from playing Doncaster and Hereford etc to being in a Europa League final was incredible. We were so close.The opening ceremony gave me goosebumps.
No details needed.
Bad moments
Losing 4-1 at home to Cardiff in the Adams promotion season. Live on Sky, I was gutted
Losing to Chelsea, FA Cup semi at Villa Park
Losing 4-0 to Blackburn Tigana's last game, we were awful
Half time at Man City, relegated... if only I'd known
Forlan scoring that goal, being shown on TV devastated and receiving countless messages straight after telling me so. Then the absurd airport situation after defeat.
Worse..getting relegated at Swansea
Best..Juve

Yep and everything Order said too!!! How do you choose 1?? Or 10 for that matter!
Best: the Europa league final
Worst: the Europa league final
Worst was the 83 home defeat by Leicester which was the moment I knew we had blown promotion and the away defeat at Derby when the Ref stopped the game early because of the crowd. The pure injustice of it at the time made me physically ill. I was very into it all in those days.
Best time if I just chose one was the Fulham v Hereford game at the Best and Marsh Circus. Football was actually fun and entertainment.
Best release of tension was the Fulham v Lincoln game where we drew to gain promotion.

West Ham people treated Wanchope really bad, I don't really like them because of that

Bump
WORST
The abandoned game at the Baseball Ground. Whilst decades ago now, it is as clear as it was yesterday. Nasty day, disgraceful scenes, and when the FA refused to grant a replay it showed them for what they were (and still are).
BEST
The final at Hamburg. Amazing journey for us to reach the final, a real privilege to be with thousands and thousands of other Whites on the Reeperbahn.

Agree with you on both.
The best bit,without a doubt,was sitting here on the Costa Blanca watching the scenes following our Europa semi-final win.The camera panned on to a guy who had tears in his eyes,no doubt thinking about what he`d been through as a Fulham fan.It wasn`t long before i was joining in,wondering what my Dad would have made of it.And,yeah,the Baseball ground,dreadful day.
Many of the above and more. Finding it impossible to choose "1" in each category from all the memories. Maybe... away from an actual game or result.... if pushed... possibly...
Best. In 2002 enjoying a scrumptious local Croatian meal and a large glass of a full bodied red wine in a restaurant overlooking the harbour in Split as the sun was setting over the Adriatic and pinching myself and smiling at the memories of being at Hartlepool as a gale force wind blew the icy in rain off the North Sea across the exposed terrace etc etc
Worst. We moved from Fulham to Godalming (rural leafy Surrey) in March 1975. I was without a ticket on Cup Final day. My father and uncle had set out early to make a day of it and had managed to acquire a spare ticket. They telephoned my mother. My mother had not passed her driving test and would not take me or put me on a train on my own (I was 9) to London. My mum explained to me that "you can go the next time they play at Wembley". I am still waiting and it has become a bit of a family joke. I might resurrect it tomorrow when we have a family lunch to celebrate my Mum's 70th birthday

Absolutely right. The perfect choices. Never been more downcast than at Swansea that day, nor more elated than when we beat one of Europe's greatest names. Oh the emotions of following Fulham!
My most recent lowlight was a few years ago when we hosted Hull, batterered them for 90 minutes without actually scoring, and then with the last action of the game they went up the other end and scored...
There wasn't really that much at stake to be honest. But it REALLY teed me off.

Nothing worse than that long train ride back from Swansea. There were moments following that defeat where I thought that was the end for the club.
