Hugh Grant

[Jimpav]

This "lovable" fop has long been linked with Fulham but is it me or has he only just started bothering to turn up at matches now that we are in the big time?

he used to attend loads of games when we were in the lower leagues, and used to sit with the fans. A fulham man through and through

Yes Mr BBP, I remember that too.

I think when he got real famous and was on the top of his game, the logistics was just not there. He was shooting movies all over the planet, a lot in the US, so going to the Cottage every Saturday probably wasn't very feasible.

Trust me, I know. I can't just take the Fulham flyer from New York to the Cottage every 2nd Saturday/Sunday/Wednesday/Thursday...

I agree with this. Met him a couple of times in the Riversiders back when we were under Micky Adams. My old man has said that he's seen him all over the shop with Fulham even at away games disguised by a cap and shades. He's never had any problems mingling with the fans or holding down conversations either. I just think he's being personally picked out more as we are ourselves flirting with the big time.

he might be a posh floppy haired pillock,but he's OUR posh floppy haired pillock,good on him says me :59:

[LRCN]

he was at the porsmouth game in our great escape too.

[Abbotsbury White]

Yep he's been around a long time and stuck by us through thick and thin unlike David Mellor who one minute said he was a lifelong fulham fan the next was staunch darksider..

Hugh Grant has leapt in my estimations this week. The Fulham Badgers Down's Syndrome team are trying to get £30,000 in support to continue the great work they are doing. There's a link on the page to the JustGiving.com website and one of the first names up there donating is one Mr Hugh Grant with a donation of £10,000!!

The bloke's a champion.

In answer to your question Jimpav, it is you.

I recall an interview with him a fair few years ago, now, when he said his first job was cleaning the seats in the Riverside stand, then he was asked about his first visit to Old Trafford with Fulham and what he thought of the place (he said he thought the seats were not being cleaned properly), then asked if he was there for the 3-1 win (no, a friend of his who was there spent the whole match on the phone to him with a blow-by-blow account, of which he could understand not a single word because of the crowd roaring in the background).
So definately old Fulham and a sense of humour too.

Thinking back, I remember an article in a programme way back in the 80s about a Fulham fan who was an actor and had to leave at half-time every week to get to the theatre on time by going into the shop and jumping over the counter (in those days the shop was a lot smaller and had doors both inside and outside the ground, a wooden barrier stopped people nipping into the ground for free). No idea if it was him or somebody else, though.
