A pandemic communique from Shad

Say what you will about our owner’s stewardship of our club, but I believe the man has a good heart and truly wants only what’s best for our club.

I find the differences between the two footballs (or perhaps it is countries or leagues) interesting. I went to the Jacksonville Jaguars website to see if there was a similar post or story from Khan. It turns out I had to dig around just to find the one page that mentions him - his bio. There may actually be more pages, but he is a far more central figure at Fulham than in Jacksonville. I suppose there are certain American sports owners that are pretty central, but most of them tend to sit back and let others be the face of the organization.

 

To some degree, I think the difference in communication might also be the timing. With the NFL draft having recently happened and player transfers in progress, there is a lot more to keep a Jags fan engaged right now (my wife, in fact, is getting sick of my son and I discussing at dinner the impact of Jaguars' picks on the upcoming season). There is much less right now to connect a Fulham fan, so this feels like an appropriate time to reach out.
