Fulham History

The history of \"Fulham\" begins very modestly. A group of parishioners of St. Margaret's Anglican Church decided to create a football team, which over time received a name familiar to millions today. At the beginning, \"Fulham\" played in local amateur leagues.

Professional status was obtained by the team in 1898, which was the first step towards big football.

For decades, the club played more often in the lower divisions of England. But even in difficult times, \"Fulham\" remained the favorite of its district. Performances in the FA Cup in the 70s became famous, and a new era began in 2001, when the team reached the Premier League for the first time in a long time.

\n
\"The 2009/10 season holds a special place in history. Under the leadership of coach Roy Hodgson, Fulham made a sensational breakthrough in the Europa League.\"
\n

This period, having reached the finals, where it fought worthily against Atletico of Madrid, is considered the golden time of the modern club.

Fulham Stadium

The home arena of \"Fulham\" is Craven Cottage - a cozy stadium located right on the banks of the Thames. It doesn't look as flashy as most modern arenas, but it has a unique atmosphere.

The stadium was built back in 1896, and it got its name from the ancient cottage located on the territory of the arena and preserved to this day.

The arena holds a little more than 25 thousand spectators. Despite its modest size, \"Craven Cottage\" has a family and at the same time football energy.

\n
\"Many fans will admit that this is one of the nicest stadiums in England. Evening football here has a special magic.\"
\n

The spectators are literally a few meters from the field, and the Thames is nearby creating a unique backdrop.
