Elm Park Kid Jackson Corner Hugh Grant and Richard Osman are Fulham fans says it all really. Posh boys from the Home Counties with no connection to west London. Your typical Fulham fan really just a pleasent walk along the river from there luxury apartment overlooking the Thames.
tbf - the typical Reading fan now is someone in his 60s who goes each week out of a sense of obligation rather than because he enjoys it.
Either that or a 22 year old paying £145 for a season ticket so that him and a few 'lads' can play at football hooligans on a saturday. Well, until he accidentally knocks up his gf and is then forced to start going to shopping with the missus at the weekend instead.
Speaking from experience, EPK?
I really like the Cottage but Fulham have got right up my nose in the last couple of years, especially their flapping after the play-offs. Whenever we have lost in the semis, or even the final, I feel we have had a bit of class as a club in general. They just seemed to completely lose their shit and are trying to create a huge rivalry between the clubs where one just doesn't exist.
I'd like to see them stay down primarily so we can have another decent away day next year, but also because if they did go up I'd have to read another Guardian jizzfest about their 'dancing playmaker Tom Cairney' (that was a quote after he spent the second leg of the semis last year passing the ball sideways and lumping it up into the box).
