CHAOS AT THE COTTAGE
While the bulk of Fulham’s support is comprised of working-class folk who like a pie and a pint of foaming shaft as much as the next match-goer, the club’s Thames-adjacent postcode of Craven Cottage means fans have never been able to shake their undeserved reputation for being a bunch of well-heeled, upper class popinjays with more of a predilection for half-time hummus washed down by a flute or two of expensive champagne. Their case certainly isn’t helped by the fact that the Fulham ticket office is invariably the most obliging port of call for foreign tourists hoping to tick “Attend A Premier League Match” off their bucket lists, or that the ground’s go-to celebrity camera cut-away during televised games is the raffish fop and professional posho that is acting’s Hugh Grant.
