Historical Timeline

Year - 1879: The founding of a religious and educational institution in Fulham

Fulham Football Club was originally founded in West London in August 1879 under the pious name of ‘Fulham St Andrew’s Church Sunday School FC’. Its modest, purely amateur beginnings were driven and shaped exclusively by devout parishioners, priests and enthusiastic teachers from the local Church of England parish on Star Road, West Kensington; remarkably, it did not adopt its current name until almost ten long years later, upon turning professional.

Year - 1896: The definitive and historic move to Craven Cottage

Following the stifling, constant instability and its mournful, nomadic wanderings across no fewer than eight different, gloomy home grounds during its first dark, fledgling and astonishing fifteen years of fierce, heroic existence, the club marvellously forged its idyllic and definitive destiny in 1896, settling majestically and historically on the picturesque banks of the mighty River Thames, laying the foundations for and constructing the historic, unmistakable, romantic and undeniably sacred Craven Cottage stadium.

Year - 1950s–1960s: The heroic and majestic reign of Johnny Haynes

The golden, romantic and glorious classical era was unquestionably, colossally and historically shaped by the towering figure of Johnny Haynes (‘The Maestro’). He established himself as the majestic and masterful offensive orchestrator, an astonishingly talented British striker, a world-leading pioneer, and the first player in British history to earn a staggering 100 pounds a week. Haynes turned down colossal, million-pound fortunes from powerful Italian clubs, remaining steadfast, fierce, stoic, loyal and tireless, heroically devoted to his beloved, rustic and modest team.

Year - 1997–2001: Al Fayed, his immense fortune and the long-coveted Premier League elite

On the brink of a catastrophic, dramatic and devastatingly grim descent into the grey depths of the fourth division, the eccentric Egyptian billionaire Mohamed Al Fayed astonishingly acquired and purchased the club in 1997, ferociously and ceaselessly injecting a colossal, astronomical, lethal and fierce budget of petrodollars, along with unlimited luxuries and astonishing signingsthat catapulted the club dazzlingly and astonishingly to the glittering, golden heights of the Premier League in 2001 in a fleeting, lethal, meteoric and astonishing record time.

Year - 2010: Roy Hodgson’s heroic and miraculous feat in the Europa League

The team, masterfully, tactically brilliantly and astonishingly led by the experienced veteran manager Roy Hodgson, utterly and colossally amazed the whole of the great European continent by reaching, in an epic, heroic and astonishing fashion, the magical, dream-like grand final of the astonishing 2010 Europa League. In their magnificent, fierce campaign, they managed to miraculously, spectacularly, astonishingly, heroically, lethally and fiercely demolish and crush – in a stunning, devastating fashion – monstrous, historic, untouchable giants of football such as the powerful, dominant and fierce Italian side Juventus in historic, astonishing tie-offs.
