Non-Soccer fan who fell for it during the World Cup

Quick questions

-What is the history of the team? Anything I couldn’t learn on Wikipedia? To get a good general idea of the history, wikipedia is not a bad way to start. I also recommend other Fulham related sites on the left side of Cottagers Confidential. You should definitely check out those sites as well. Fulhamfc.com is a great Official website for the team.

-Who are the teams I should hate? I don’t know if I would say hate this team but Chelsea is a club that is very close in proximity to Fulham. Since Liverpool just took Fulham’s manager that might be a team to be aware of as well.

-Who are the key players and their roles? Bobby Zamora is the main goal scorer at striker and had a great season. The goalkeeper Mark Schwarzer is one of the best in the game. Danny Murphy is the captain and leader in the midfield.

Also being new the sport any guide for a novice? If you get Fox Soccer Channel I would recommend watching Sky Sports News. It will just give you a feel for what is going on in the EPL. Then, they also show old matches that again will get you to get a taste of what it is going to be like when the season begins.

If you have any other questions feel free to ask and welcome aboard.

I am in the same boat, I fell in love with soccer and I loved the play of Clint Dempsey. So I decided to follow Fulham. So happy, I am not alone.

As we get closer to the beginning of the season I will breakdown the club and help you get to know the players.

I think you are really going to enjoy following the team through an EPL season.
