Story

Neil's Dad Phil, posted this on the independant Fulham forum today to let us all know of the tragic news, the copy though is in itself a remembrance and so I repeat it here "I posted an appeal yesterday for help in finding my missing son. Huge thanks for all the messages of support and help. Unfortunately we got the news we had all been dreading last evening. Neils body was found on the line at Putney station. We are all devastated.
Neil grew up under the shadows of Selhurst Park, but there was only going to be one team for him, Fulham. I shall never forget my pride when seeing him at primary school, the only white shirt in a sea of Palace, chelsea or Manu strips. One of his most treasured things was a framed montage of cuttings and pictures from that night in Hamburg, him in the centre with his scarf. I shall treasure to the day I die.
On Saturday night Neil made the journey we have made hundreds of times from Croydon to Putney to end his life. If only I'd stopped him.

RIP Neil, we have lost a wonderful son, me my best friend and for all of us a fellow Fulham nut I don't know what I'll do next season, one thing for certain if I can stomach going I shall be keeping his ticket, I couldn't stand a stranger in his seat next to me.
Sorry if I'm rambling on but I'm trying to make sense of the turmoil going round in my head and putting things down helps
Once again thanks for all your support."
