After ordering myself a copy of the Johnny Haynes book, wrapping it up and putting it under the tree how surprised I was to be given it by my wife....as well from my eldest daughter I was given a Fulham calendar. No not a kitchen appliance and not one of the players but one with atmospheric newspaper headlines relating to significant results  down the seasons. I have never seen these before, did anyone else get one?

No I got the one with two players on a page for each month. Problem with this one is that half way through the year some of the players are no longer with us.

I do recommend this one. A match report on a Ronnie Rooke game. the Graham Leggat 10-1 plus ten others.  049:gif An ironing board Woolly? Does this include a steam iron for letting some off when we get lose?

Bought myself/got given the latest book from Ashwater - Lost Football League grounds. Fascinating stories surrounding so many grounds. The irony is that photos depicting certain stands, long since gone, feature Fulham as the visiting team playing

This is a book I want get. The most sad are those where club's very existence ended. Third Lanark for one.

Maybe it's a special card for Fulham Supporters whose Birthday falls on December 25th

You would be amazed at how many grounds have gone as you go through the book. You and I have probably visited most of them as well
