Fulham in the Past

Evening all, might be a bit late to get the word out but would anyone be up for up for a round of applause for the late Cliff Dean on the 67th minute (his age) at the Man City game on Sunday.

🗣️| London Broncos are deeply saddened to announce the passing of lifelong supporter Cliff Dean. His brother Richard has sent the club the following message; 
“Cliff absolutely loved London Broncos and followed them near and far since the early days at Fulham, even including a trip to Australia to watch them in the World Club Challenge. 
“Please pass on our thanks to David Hughes and everyone at the club who have looked out for Cliff and made him feel a valued fan.” Funeral details will be shared with supporters and Richard has asked for supporters to attend and to wear their favourite London Broncos shirt. His passing will be recognised with a tribute at the upcoming game against Widnes on the 31st. 
RIP CLIFFIE 📖 | londonbroncosrl.com/lifelong-londo… #WeAreLondon🏉

Sorry to hear news that Cliff ‘Khazi’ Dean passed away today. Known by so many in SW6. Raised in Sands End, he always had time to have a chat, a real character at Craven Cottage, followed @FulhamFC & @LondonBroncosRL all around the globe. RIP Cliff, you will be missed

Sad news that John Dempsey has passed away aged 78. Starting his career @FulhamFC making over 150 appearances before making the short move to @ChelseaFC. He appeared over 160 times for the Blues, winning the 1970 FA Cup then scoring in the 1971 Cup Winners Cup Final victory

Can you name them all? ✍️ Milo Hodgkiss fulhamish.co.uk/post/2024-10-0…

RIP Barry Lloyd. Our former captain and member of the squad that reached the 1975 FA Cup Final has sadly passed away.

Sad to hear the news that Barry Lloyd has passed away aged 75. He started his career @ChelseaFC. He made 10 appearances before making the short move to @FulhamFC in a swap deal with John Dempsey. He appeared over 280 for the whites and was in the1975 FA Cup Final squad. RIP Barry

@Scrumpydave66 @fulhamal @FulhamFC @LFC @LBNo11FFC Also, only 4 pages, yet a photo on one of Tommy Lawton, who had nothing to do with either club 😂

@Scrumpydave66 @fulhamal @FulhamFC @LFC @LBNo11FFC Thanks Dave, just seems strange that the 4 page pirate was the same as the official programme. Why would people buy the pirate? Shortage of official?

I need a bit of help with a programme someone has shown me. It’s 4 page programme from 1949 of @FulhamFC v @LFC at Craven Cottage (Liverpool won 1-0)Photo 4 is the official programme so I would like to know what the 4 page one is, I’ve never encountered one like this @LBNo11FFC

@fulhamal @FulhamFC @LFC @LBNo11FFC Thanks Alan, very useful information that. I have many programmes and they are all official one, never knowingly encountered one of the pirate versions, same price as well. Thanks for your help

Joseph Lyons opened his first tea shop in 1894, which increased to around 200 in its heyday. Here is there SW6 tea shop at Walham Green Station. I’m not quite sure when it closed but Lyons & Co.tea shops started to decline in popularity in the 1960s

Sad news for Fulham fans of a certain generation.

@rogerchicken @bo66ie29 Correct sir

@FulhamThe @bo66ie29 That's got to be Fulham Road opposite Barclay Road?

Queuing for the 77 bus to Euston, Whitehall 1972.

St John’ Church was built in 1828. The money came from a fund set up in celebration of the defeat of Napoleon at Waterloo.

@ProfoundYellow It was eventually demolished when the new ‘stone’ Putney Bridge was built in 1886 on a new straighter route. The old bridge ran into Fulham High St next to the Eight Bells.

@FulhamThe So what happened to it? Was it knocked down? Or did it become Fulham Railway Bridge? Thanks for the info

Fulham Bridge was erected in 1729, the third bridge to cross the Thames after London & Richmond. Prior to the bridge being built a ferry was used to transport people across but this was an inconvenience to the Royal Family who used this route when hunting in Richmond Park.

@ProfoundYellow No, Putney Bridge was erected alongside the old aqueduct just along from Fulham Bridge. This photo from 1885 shows Putney Bridge under construction with Fulham Bridge to its right

@FulhamThe Is this Putney Bridge now?
