NEW MINT PRISTINE NEVER BEEN OPENED The Definitive Fulham FC Bible
Fulham: The Complete Record stands as the definitive chronicle of Fulham Football Club, tracing its roots from a humble church side to a mainstay of English football. Dennis Turner’s meticulous research brings to life not just the scores and statistics, but the texture of over a century’s worth of football at Craven Cottage. The narrative starts in 1879, when Fulham St. Andrew’s was formed by Sunday-school boys, painting a vivid picture of the club’s earliest days, long before the roar of the crowds and the bustle of league competition.
Turner's work documents Fulham's gradual transformation from a local team playing on park pitches to a respected professional club as the years progress. In addition to its well-crafted prose, the book showcases a wealth of full-colour illustrations and rare photographs. These visuals are paired with detailed match reports, season summaries, and player profiles, preserving both the drama and minutiae of the Cottagers’ journey through the decades.
For the dedicated supporter, "Fulham: The Complete Record" is more than a reference book—it’s a portal to the past. Each page is alive with anecdotes, memorable victories, and the heartbreak of near misses. The reader is invited to relive pivotal moments: promotion campaigns, cup runs, and the emergence of beloved club legends. The club’s rich tradition, from the days of amateur football to the professional era, is chronicled with an eye for both the grand narrative and the smaller, personal stories that make Fulham unique.
Whether you’re a lifelong fan or a football historian, this book is an essential addition to any collection. It honours one of football's most storied clubs with its blend of rigorous statistics and storytelling. The official record status ensures that it is the trusted companion for anyone wishing to understand Fulham’s proud heritage and enduring spirit.
