    I've played and enjoyed soccer my whole life and last year my wife and I decided to pick Premier League teams...she chose Tottenham, I chose Fulham. Two Americans on the roster made my decision pretty easy (now three)!

    I'm a pretty new fan so forgive me for not being overly versed in all things Fulham but I'm psyched to have found this site to have someone to talk to!!!

    Welcome aboard cottagerinmemphis. It is great to hear you picked Fulham to support. There are definitely some ups and downs following the club, but that is part of what makes it so fun and special.

    Do not worry about not being versed in all things Fulham. Supporters on this site range from newbies to ones who have supported the club for over 50 years. We are all here to help one another and to support our beloved Whites.

    Should be an interesting Saturday in your place on September 1st when Fulham plays Tottenham. I hope you get the last laugh on your wife that day.

    Cheers and welcome!

    Thanks!

    I just hope we can see that one! We have FSC and most Fulham games aren't shown...

    Welcome Memphis; Should be an interesting London derby
    in your household next week. Been to Memphis once and thank God I don't live there. Not because I didn't have a great time, but because the freakin barb-q is so amazing I'd weigh an extra 50 lbs if I lived there full time. Out here on the left coast we have a ton of great restaurants, but mediocre barb-q.

    Thanks for all the sentiments guys! I just moved to Memphis three weeks ago from Tampa (my wife is getting her PHD here) so I haven't really found all the great BBQ spots yet...

    As for the Spurs, they are a bunch of wankers! (i love saying that in my worst British accent...)

    British accent??? Use Dick Van Dyke's cockney accent from Mary Poppins and you have the worst English accent I have ever heard.

    "Gowd bless you, guvna" and welcome aboard.

    memphis,

    B.B. King's joint on Beale Street has mighty mighty fine BBQ, and the servers are attentive and very nice.

    There's some nice music there at times also!
