Turncoat!

My dad got Fulham into my blood. Mind you here was a cruel parent as he'd drag me every other week to watch Wimbledon. As soon as I was old enough to go on my own it was no contest. The 93 bus ride to Putney, the walk through Bishops Park to the ground and standing at the Hammersmith End to watch another (in)glorious performance. By the time I started work I started going away too and ended up doing 72 different grounds plus two away trips with England

My dad was friendly with the Fulham secretary in the '70's. Graham Hortop. In 1975 we were his guests at the cup final against West Ham and also got a tour of Craven Cottage with some signed memorabilia by Bobby Moore, Mullery et all.
Still got a soft spot for Fulham.
