History
Founded as a church boys’ team in 1879, Fulham moved into Craven Cottage in 1896. They never made the top division until 1949, and then they bounced up and down through the 1950s and had their glory days in the 1960s.

Rivalries
Fulham really hate neighbors Chelsea (who doesn’t?), but they have only beaten the Blues ten times in 81 tries, so it isn’t much of a rivalry. Still, it’s only two miles to Stamford Bridge, and Fulham has a fun song about where to “stick the blue flag.” The real bitterness is with Queens Park Rangers, 3.4 miles away, though QPR are once again a…

Songs
A long, looping chant of “Come…on…you…Whites!” A taunt at Chelsea: “One team in Fulham, there’s only one team in Fulham…” Another one for Chelsea: “Stick the Blue Flag Up Your Arse” To Volari: “Al-Fayed…oh oh oh oh. He wants to be a Brit. And QPR are shit.” “We are Fulham, we are Fulham, we are Fulham, FFC! We are Fulham, super Fulham, we are…

Stadium
Craven Cottage is the absolute epitome of an old-fashioned football ground. In fact, the Haynes Stand is a historically protected building and has some of the original wooden seats! It’s all impossibly charming and old-fashioned. Best of luck with the restrooms in that stand, though! The exception is the Riverside Stand, right on the Thames and…

Going to a Game at Fulham
GETTING THERE: The Tube stop you want is Putney Bridge on the District line, about a 15-minute walk away. From there, turn right and walk along Fulham High Street, which becomes Fulham Palace Road. Or go left, through a tunnel, and into Bishop’s Park. Yes, you can walk through a park along the River Thames to get to Craven Cottage! However, for…

Fulham Tickets
During previous seasons in the Championship, Fulham tickets were a snap and ran from £30 to £40. In the Premier League, though, a membership may be needed, and prices will probably be a little higher. Groundhopper Guides sells regular tickets as well as hospitality options at Craven Cottage.
