    My name is Tim DeBaillie. I am a Fulham newbie, but I love this team. Basically I followed Man U and Liverpool through the 90s on and off, but never really got EPL coverage here in the US. Therefore I never really picked the one team to follow.

    Now that I can watch almost 5-7 games a week, I can watch the teams and truly be a fan.

    Anyways, how I got into Fulham was through Brian McBride. I feel he is the hardest worker on the US National team and when the season started this year, I was instantly attracted to Cookie Coleman and the rest of the whites.

    I went on my Honeymoon in December and was able to watch Fulham beat Blackburn 2-1 at Craven Cottage on December 17, 2005. The atmosphere instantly hooked me into the team and I knew this would be my team.

    Now I am getting back into football with refereeing and coaching high school and travel teams.

    Hello Tim and Welcome to Fulham! My very first I saw was a 1-0 Fulham win over Middlesboro at Loftus rd...I was also instantly hooked!

    Brian is slowly become Fulham legend due to his work rate and commitment to the Whites.

    Anywho, welcome to FulhamUSA. So where are you from?

    As a fellow "was drawn to the Cottage because of McBride" type, let me also say hello.

    I'm really pleased to see that you're refereeing and coaching. When I stopped playing, I worked with AYSO here in San Antonio, and helped start player, coaching, and ref clinics at American military bases all over the country and in a couple of spots overseas. Now that I'm older than most forms of dirt and my knees belong to Arthur Ritis, all I have is the eyes. Keep working with the kids, dude, and welcome to the site. It's a cool place to hang out.
