Great read thank you. Could not agree more about social media after the Derby victory. I always find it very odd we get called a tourist club (i guess from PL stint). Cant wait to see the turn out of true Fulham fans on Saturday

Great article and very similar to my own fulham history, and probably like many more irish fans.

I gave a lift to a hitchhiker in Co. Galway a couple of years ago. "Oh, you're English. I suppose that's ok if you're a football fan. I support Newcastle" "I support Fulham and we beat you 3-0 last night"

'After all, out of all the clubs in the Football League, no one has waited longer to play at the hallowed turf than Fulham'.

That can't be true.... can it?

It's basically true - I think I read since '75 something like 86 out of the current 92 have played at Wembley.

There was a time many years ago , when we had a lot of Irish fans at the Cottage, there doesn't seem to be so many these days. I guess it was players like Robin Lawler and Jimmy Conway that attracted them.
Thanks for a nicely written post Maoconnor

Plus Jimmy Dunne and John Conway. Now, why don't we sing Athenry, that's a nice song, easy tune and most people know the words?
