    I started following Fulham after the 2005 MLS All Star Game but I really did not become a fan until this year. Mcbride's injury, I was crushed but I continued to watch. While this season has been a tough one to swallow, it has given me a new appreciation for this game. The point that seal the deal was Bullard's goal against Aston Villa back in Feb. It was the most emotional goal that I have ever experienced. I found and joined this site within an hour of the match ending. I am still new to the scene. so I've been mostly an observer on forums and chatroom. But I have enjoyed every minute of this crazy ride.

    In a few hours, Fulham will be playing for their premiership lives. I am nervous and excited at the same time. I haven't felt this way about a game since Oakland was in the Super Bowl in 2003. I have truly taken on this team as my own and regardless of what happens, I will support this team. My name is articbob and I am proud to be a Fulhamerican.

    p.s. Does Fulham have a special poem or song that used for inspiration? Usually before a Raider game I would play this: http://youtube.com/watch?v=XmiVYFueNvQ

    I would like to start a tradition of something similar with Fulham.

    p.p.s Even thought I joined the site in Feb, it's saying that I joined today. I guess they start it from the first post then. Anyway COYW!!!!

    Welcome Articbob. It's been awhile since I've heard the voice from those great NFL films (John Facenda could turn a phrase).

    Why wait, this is a like a support group. We are all in the same boat.

    I too am nervous, anxious, and excited about this and really bummed that I do not have Setanta. We cannot go down. We cannot go down.

    I love that video. Thanks for posting. Great footage of some legendary Raiders. I am a die hard Raider fan. I will send the link to some other friends.
