[edit] FFC LFC

Can anyone who regularly visits here look at the Fulham LFC page, and help me in my quest to get a network of articles for ladies teams which can be as good as the mens pages?

Any help much appreciated.

[edit] Away Kit

Thank you to the anon who updated the away kit. however, are the sleeves predominantly black? i'm not sure, take a look at these pictures and decide for yourself. at any case, the away shorts are white, not blue. i'll try and find out how to alter these but could someone else do it if i haven't got round to it.

[edit] Kits

Could you please get a proper image of the kits. Perhaps you should get rid of the shorts and do something like they do here [1] where they have the top home, away, 3rd kit and sponsor. --iceman 19:47, 25 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] REVERT!

This has got to go back to Fulham F.C. in order to fall in titular line with every other standardised football club's page on wikipedia.

To fall in line with the team's official website, however, it should be Fulham FC (no periods). If the periods are kept, correct English demands a space between the "F." and the "C." (the no-space is a common shortcut, but it's technically wrong). RadioKirk (u|t|c) 16:16, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Famous Fans

THat list looks a bit suspect to me. The Georgie Thompson article says she is a fan but are the others? CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 16:50, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

The list will probably disappear soon. From the Manchester United discussion page : "I've deleted it. We've had this discussion before, both on this page and at WikiProject Football. All the major English club pages got rid of them - most people agreed it was unencyclopaedic and a waste of space. CTOAGN (talk) 16:55, 17 April 2006 (UTC)" - fchd 18:42, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

The list was re-added and rightly reverted, but I thought I'd dump it here if only to keep the Pope John Paul II/Fulham connection, because, true or not, it's priceless:

[edit] West London derby

I've just created a West London derby article. If any Fulham fans around here can more add to it, then they are more than welcome. SteveO 13:06, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fulham, Hammersmith?!

So as to get rid of any potential edit war, i've got a few words to say.

Fulham FC is not based in "Fulham, Hammersmith" - they two are different places within the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham!

You can clearly see here that it is based in Fulham, not Hammersmith! (Craven Cottage towards the south of the image, the red borderline in the middle of the page separating Fulham to the south and Hammersmith to the north.

Even then, shouldn't the club be listed as situated where its motspur park offices?

[edit] Steve Earle

I've amended Steve Earle's link in the top scorers section as it was linking to a different Steve Earle, the American singer.

[edit] Nov 29 Arsenal

Since I'll be put down as a vandal, could someone add on the Arsenal match? The american scored first, a yellow card for Arsenal, the Canadian scored, two yellow cards and a read card, then arsenal scored, followed by another 5 yellows.

[edit] Fixture List

I have removed the fixture list since it is copyrighted by the Premier League. Besides, Wikipedia is not a news service. Oldelpaso 10:35, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

I'll agree for its removal for your second point about it being a news service... but your first point is pure rubbish... you can't copyright a schedule. Jazznutuva 09:00, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
Past results are not copyrightable, but unfortunately fixtures are; the FA Premier League (in the guise of their licensee Football DataCo Ltd) charge a fee for publication of £266 +VAT per club per season and vigorously enforce it. Oldelpaso 19:44, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
