Fulham fan here - nice video - will take the Posh tag although I think a lot of fans are regular people following a family tradition of following the club from way back. Are we the loudest/most passionate fans in the world? - not by a long way BUT it's a fantastic club with a great stadium and most importantly for me, great values. We play nice football, punch above our weight and provide a welcoming place to watch and enjoy a game. I've rarely heard a fan of another team slag off the Cottage - everyone always says what a great place it is to come. And that's our place in the world of football and I think we are proud of that.

Would you consider a vlog on Torquay United? We are in peril and about to launch full scale versus the owner Clark Osborne. The man behind Bristol Rovers losing their original Stadium and many other broken promises to other sports venues and fans. We need as much exposure and support as we can muster to try to win this battle and save our club from being slowly destroyed, or not so slowly at present. There is a real story here to be told. Let me know how to get in touch if you are interested. Our Supporters trust has many ex player, some big names, we can call in to be part of this if you want to take that approach. I advise, get the cameras up to a home game or outside a game a record the growing toxicity as protests ramp up

[@matthew-thomasplant3542]

posh stereotypes and memes aside, Fulham is a proper club and as a Stoke fan has been one of my favourite away days, especially in our 2008/2018 premier league run. Some amazing pubs nearby, decent fans and far more likeable than any other London club.

[@daveharvey8460]

Thanks for your kind words about Fulham. The posh rubbish doesn't do justice to our many working class fans. As a builder in my late sixties with 61 seasons at the cottage have seen the fan base change but we still have many diehard fans. Good luck to Stoke, another proper Football club

As an American, this club became my English club to support because they were one of the few clubs in europe to give Americans a chance to play back in the day. Why is fulham considered posh? Is it the location? I thought they were considered more historical as they were one of London's original teams established in the late 1800's. I will always support this team.

I have been a Fulham supporter for about 20 years from over in the U.S. and have been to the Cottage around half a dozen times. It is not the loudest atmosphere and it felt more like a U.S. sporting event than anything I have seen abroad. But it is an absolutely incredible stadium, the Riverside Stand is amazing, and the fans while polite are very passionate. I did catch an away match at QPR and I can say that brings out the inner animal in Fulham fans. Loud, crazy, and not nearly as polite.
