God, that's crazy; Fulham have had to start their season before most clubs have started their pre season friendlies

It really is crazy. There is added motivation though, the amount of qualifying rounds/matches they would play to get to the group stage, they wouldn't need to bother organising any pre-season friendlies.

Where the hell did you come from OP? You can't just walk in here after being gone so long, and just pretend like everything is fine!

You better explain yourself.

Meh, been busy with lots of football from May 21st - 30th June.

I was gone for the close-season... now I'm back once the first competitive matches of the new season have began.

Welcome back.

Yea this is why sometimes some managers and teams would rather miss Europe altogether rathher dealing with the early start of the Europa League. The only good thing about these games are that they are never top rate opponents. After Fulham get done with the Faroese they will play Crusaders from Northern Ireland.

You had to be living under a rock to have missed all the football being played in the past month. Three international tournaments have started, two of which were FIFA tournaments.

Copa America tomorrow

what is this copa america business?

Not sure if serious.

fulham will be feeling it towards the latter stages of the season though. These early games are going to kill them
