Title: Are There Many Fulham In The Armed Forces?
Post by: White Noise on February 22, 2011, 02:05:54 PM
I wonder how well represented Fulham supporters are in our different Armed Forces?

Are there any current or former service people on here who can say whether they encountered many fellow Whites in their time?

I've met a soldier who's a staunch Fulham fan. I'm completely crap at names, think he's called Alan and think he lives in Milton Keynes, drinks in the Brick.

You mean the late MK Hoops' older, uglier, door-mat haired brother? Not quite in the forces, but he's working in Afghanistan.

Thanks for this tribute. The men over there are some of the greatest men the world has ever seen and their position is one of utter impossibility. I pray for them everyday. I do THINK of them every day. Many days I cry for them.Their sacrafice is something that is so ignored it makes me ill. God Bless you for this tribute.
