Summary
There's Only One F In Fulham (aka TOOFIF) was launched in 1988. In those 30 years, fanzine editor David Lloyd has not just monitored the goings on at London's oldest football club, but got directly involved along the way - campaigning when FFC looked to be doomed, and interviewing the key personnel as the Club enjoyed an unlikely renaissance.

THERE'S ONLY ONE F IN FULHAM by David Lloyd
During the mid'90s, Fulham FC slumped to 91st of 92 in the football pyramid and near-oblivion. Property developers, their bulldozers and even general neglect perennially threatened Fulham's picturesque Thames-side home, Craven Cottage. But the Club's diehard supporters never gave up hope, and their considerable rearguard actions helped to save the day. Improvements on the pitch attracted a white knight backer and, astonishingly, FFC were propelled back to the top flight in 2001, and even to a major European final in 2010. In March 1988 the fanzine There's Only One F In Fulham (TOOFIF) was launched and its editor has been closely involved with the Club's ups and downs, often directly so, and has chatted to a host of FFC personnel. Several, such as Tom Cairney, George Cohen, Chris Coleman, Mohamed Al Fayed, Jimmy Hill, Brede Hangeland, Johnny Haynes, Roy Hodgson, Ray Lewington and Jean Tigana, are household names in the world of football and beyond. In short, the TOOFIF editor has tracked the whole 30-year rollercoaster journey...
David Lloyd has followed Fulham since he was nine. He's covered FFC matters for the past 40 years - for local papers, Club programme, national football mags and, of course, the fanzine - and has been on the spot for all major developments.
