Fulham: The Premiership Diary

Fulham: The Premiership Diary

by HarryHarris (Author), Danny Fullbrook (Author)

Synopsis

Fulham last made the headlines in the mid-seventies when George Best and Rodney Marsh turned out at Craven Cottage. Following the dark days of the eighties, Mohamed Al Fayed has breathed new life (and a substantial amount of cash) into the club, and, following the initial success of Kevin Keegan, Jean Tigana (the ex-French international and successful Monaco manager) has taken Fulham up to the Premiership for the first time. The 2001/02 saw Tigana's men reach the semi-finals of the FA Cup and adapt to life in the top division. Harry Harris and Danny Fullbrook have been there to record everything behind the scenes.

Book Overview: The authors have had access behind the scenes at Fulham - and to Jean Tigana - throughout the 2001/2 season. Mohamed Al Fayed to contribute a foreword. Fulham have a large hardcore fan base: Simon Morgan's autobiography (ex-Fulham captain) sold 14,000 hardbacks (small independent publisher, extremely limited distribution). Harrods will support the book. Huge media coverage guaranteed: despite a modest final league position the media interest in Fulham in the Premiership has been extensive.
