Brighton 3 Liverpool 0

After this resounding win over Liverpool the story – like Fulham’s – will be focussed on the demise of the Reds and the future of Jurgen Klopp which is unfair as the Seagulls played so well. From the start they took the game to Liverpool, pinning them down in their half. However [...]

The Tanner Report: Fulham 2 Chelsea 1

Fulham won the SW6 bragging rights but the story will be the demise of Chelsea and the future of Graham Potter –  not that Fulham, in 6th place, are now challenging for a Champions League spot. The turning point was the sending off of Joao Felix for an over-the-ball challenge on Kenny Tete. [...]

RIP David Duckham

Any sports fan – particularly any adherent of rugby union – over the age of fifty will be sad to have learned overnight of the passing on Monday 9th January of the great England centre/wing David Duckham, winner of 36 England caps – 3 with the British & Irish Lions – a [...]

Harlequins 16 Sale Sharks 24

It’s been a poor start to the year for Quins – losing to Northampton Saints and Joe Marler being banned for 6 weeks, 4 of which are suspended. On top of this they ended 2022 with a defeat by Bristol Bears and Marcus Smith, Louis Lynagh and Tyrone Greene are currently unavailable. Coach Nick [...]

Hull 0 Fulham 2 – FA Cup 3rd Round

Hull v Fulham was never going to be one of the stand-out ties but was of keen of interest to both sets of fans because of connections between the two clubs. Hull’s manager Liam Rosenior played for both Fulham and Hull in his time and – as his father Leroy also played for the Whites – [...]

Watching the world from the top of a hill

Despite the global dominance and enormous commercial success of the Rust – and to the surprise of some, the breadth of its demographic appeal – it remains the case that a core viewpoint amongst its regular contributors tends to be that of those beyond the first flush of youth. As the festive [...]

Brighton 2 Arsenal 4

Brighton were good but league leaders Arsenal better. The Seagulls had World Cup winner Alex Mac Allister and Moises Caicedo absent – as well as defenders Adam Webster and Joel Veltman – and it showed. We have a stronger squad these days but you want to field your best team against such [...]

Harlequins – a Tour d’Horizon

This is not my favourite time of the year – it reminds me of the lockdown with confusion as to what day it is as one blends inevitably into another. Add strikes and universal financial concerns and a war in Europe. Like many I take refuge in sport in general and Harlequins in particular. I am [...]

The Tanner Report: Crystal Palace 0 Fulham 3

In season 2018-19, after Fulham were promoted to the Premier, we met Crystal Palace at home and were well beaten 2-0. It proved a wake-up call as we were eventually relegated and Palace – a middle of the table side at best then – beat us comfortably. Under Roy Hodgson they established [...]

George Cohen

The passing of George Cohen was certainly felt by all Fulham supporters and beyond. We only have 11 World Cup winners and of them – George – was the only one-club man, totting up 450+ games for the Cottagers between 1959 and 1968. Fulham, in terms of trophies, are not one of the most [...]
