Fulham 2000

Categories: Community / Clubs, Philanthropy, Sport / Games

Supporters' organisation formed in difficult times to help Fulham Football Club remain at its historic home.

From Moments that made Fulham: "In February 1993, and with Fulham’s lease on the Cottage ticking down towards a 31st May deadline, the supporters unveiled their ‘Fulham 2000’ scheme, inviting fans from all over the land to join for £10, with all monies raised going towards the cost of a high-profile campaign to win back the Cottage. RBS and Fulham eventually agreed a price of £7.5m – how to finance it was another matter. Enter Mohamed Al Fayed in 1997."
