2025 Summer Stories

Away Kits; Full disclosure I’m a Seattle Seahawks fan, so the highlighter green does not bother me…if it’s the accent not the main color. I can’t stand the all-Highlighter Hawks jerseys and this one is no different.

Transfers or lack thereof. @nevzter can’t be topped ^^, it just kills me that the Khans don’t view the first couple weeks of the season as important as the following 35/36. Supposedly we put in a bid for Shaktar’s Brazilian winger Kevin. They want 43 we offered 37 (allegedly) mill. Why wait? get on the damn phone and counter (don’t wait until someone swoops in beats us to this guy). The stupidity of hesitating until the last 3/4 days and leaving chances of paperwork not getting in just shows that Tony for all intents and purposes is a clueless buffoon.

 

Here you @MicahMan Not sure if you were hoping for gold as well though.

My first reaction is pretty indifferent. I don’t love it. I don’t hate it. It’s far better than the away kit though.

 

Yesssss! That's smokin'! I don't even like scotch, but this makes me want to put on that shirt, grab a seat on a big leather arm chair, and then slowly sip a scotch in a wood paneled room. Clearly someone on the marketing team got the away kit confused with the third kit.

 

Dueling realities at Craven Cottage!

Of course, not a single mention of zero outfield players brought in over the summer.

I know I'm in a minority: I love the neon green away kit. I also prefer it to the all-white, which is boring. The gold trim ruins the otherwise classy black 3rd jerseys for me. There, I would have preferred white.

 

I love the independent streak @daddude7 !

While working on my painting project this weekend I realized my official panting shirt is the same color as Fulham's away kit. It is my paint shirt because I would never wear my lime green Penn Manor Soccer League coach's shirt anywhere else - except to paint! It is still recognizably green, but now it is speckled with the residue of 20 years of painting projects.

 

Over the past few weeks did Fulham loose someone who's been with the team for years and we all missed it?

I was jealously watching Crystal Palace's highlights from their first European tournament match and I was surprised to hear the Palace commentary being voiced by Jamie Reid! Jamie has been Gentleman Jim's partner for the past few years. He's been able to continue providing commentary when Jim lost his voice from cheering too much or was dealing with serious health issues.

My favorite Jamie Reid moment was his strained "HE'S DONE IT AGAIN!" just after Wilson got the winner at Brentford.


Back in July, Jamie was mentioned as being part of Fulham's coverage for 2025/26, but now I'm not sure. He's not listed on Transfermarkt, but I would have to imagine Palace got him on a free.
