Two trophies for Fulham

Good news…

David Lloyd and myself have won awards from the New Football Pools Fanzine Awards.

Best Premier League Print Fanzine – ‘There’s Only One ‘F’ in Fulham’ – Fulham FC
Packed with content, and very professionally put together TOOFIF combines interesting articles with an amusing & light hearted look at the goings on at Craven Cottage. At 70+ pages it has more content than most fanzines and maintains a very high standard throughout the publication.

Best Blog – Craven Cottage Newsround – Fulham FC
Another accolade for the West Londoners – Craven Cottage Newsround is a frequently updated blog with news, match previews, well written articles and reports. The judges were particularly taken by the highly original nature of some of the blogs.

Hard to know what to say really, except that I’m pretty pleased with this.  It might not seem like much in the big scheme of things, but both David and myself have had pretty rough years so far, so nice happenings are always welcome.   I’ll never know how David does what he does and it’s a fitting reward for his hard work and sense of… what is it?  vision?  Who knows?  But TOOFIF’s content mix is terrific, and it’s brilliant that the judges saw that and decided he’s the best in the league.

There may be some pictures on the way.  We were presented with our trophies in the Stevenage Road rain this morning, with a nice man called Phil from the New Football Pools doing the handing over and a photographer called Stan snapping away.    We’ll see what he came up with.

So yes, hurray and all that.   Thanks for reading and here’s to another year of blathering on.
