    Sound like a Texan to me!

    Things are crazy for the next three weeks or so, but we need to get together on a match day. I'll pm you when I get "out from under."

    Welcome Jorje! How did you find FulhamUSA? And how did you become a Fulham supporter? Cheers and welcome again Jorje! I think you will find the site a nice place to meet and chat with other Fulham supporters.

    i found FulhamUSA by following a link from somewhere on ESPNSoccernet, i think. i'm a late bloomer and didn't become a Fulham supporter until Brian McBride signed. i've followed the EPL from afar for quite a long time, without really having "my team". i thought it was cool that Fulham signed McBride when most US "field" players weren't getting many chances to play. now with THREE American "field" players - Fulham has become the standard-bearers for American soccer in England (or pretty much anywhere outside of the USA).

    Welcome from Austin, TX. I'll be passing through New Braunfels in a few hours on my way down to San Antonio. I've been counting the seconds to this Sunday's Arsenal game. I'll be watching at 6 a.m. Good to see some fellow Texan supporters. You know there are more of us. In my EPL fantasy league there are several teams that have Fulham selected as their favorite team....hmmm. I know some are local. Anyways it would be great to all meet up at a pub and get rowdy for a game sometime.

    Fado's downtown on 6th Street shows has Fox, Goal, Setana, so you can pretty much catch a lot of matches there.

    Welcome iriedog! Quite a few new Texan Fulham fans. That is great! It is always great to have another Fulham supporter on board no matter where he/she is from.

    Welcome George. Tom, Mike and Jim have put together a fantastic site for all Fulham supporters to enjoy. There are a fair bit of characters in the forum as well that you will come to know soon.

    Cheers and enjoy the site.
