Adieu, Mon Amour

By: timmyg | Comments No Comments

It was a tragic inevitability that he would leave us. As Tom Wille predicted in the podcast from several weeks back, Brian McBride would not be a White if they survived. Well, McBride guided the club to safety and has decided to hang up his English boots.
A player that was more Fulham than the [...]

More releasings

By: timmyg | Comments No Comments

Oops, looks like somewhere over at the Offal forgot to add two names to the “released” list. Or their contracts expired after the Bank Holiday, not before. Goalies always get special treatment…
Tony Warner
The hero at the Emirates last August, Warner was way too inconsistent to even be a backup (yet he continually was, inexplicably). With [...]

The regulars will travel to South Korea in late July, taking on FC Seoul on the 23rd and Ulsan Hyundai Horang-i FC on the 26th. Kickoffs are slated for 8pm local time, which is 13 hours ahead of EST. [...]

There you go, and here I stay

Wow I graduate college and Fulham make more transfers than I can count. Here’s how they breakdown and what I think of them:
IN
Mark Schwarzer FREE
Woy is shaking up our goalies, but not the way we all thought. With the April signing of Darlington keeper David Stockdale coupled with and the emergence of [...]

Load of Fulham News

By: jon | Comments 1 Comment

Hey folks,  I used to write here.  I’m back.

Carlos Bocanegra, erstwhile captain of the USMNT, was cut today by Fulham.  Also released were Jari Litmanen, Philippe Christanval, Simon Elliott, Ian Pearce, Michael Timlin, Ismael Ehui and Bjorn Runstrom.  Bocanegra was prone to the silly card and idiotic foul in the penalty area, but he also [...]

Somehow they found a way…

By: timmyg | Comments 1 Comment

Unbelievable.
No, honestly, what has transpired the past 5 weeks is Hollywood blockbuster fodder. Stuff you learn in middle school, only to find out isn’t true past high school. Narrative’s that our post post-modern society all but got rid of.

More About Yesterday

By: timmyg | Comments 2 Comments

A great, if not prophetic, interview with McGod in the Independent. A quick excerpt:
“‘I have a great connection with Fulham. It’s awesome. I felt the same way about Columbus when I was there for eight years. You really get to be a part of what I consider as close to a family as you’re [...]

The Unbelievable Run Continues

By: timmyg | Comments No Comments

We’re finally a Premier League team.
After winning two roads games in a row, and now shutting out fellow-strugglers Birmingham 2-0, it is fitting that the club is out of the relegation zone — albeit barely.
Brian McBride threw his body around like he was 23-years old again (and, sadly, perhaps his last at the Cottage). [...]
