A lifelong and fanatical Fulham fan, Matty Edwell, sadly lost his life at the start of last week. Matty was a wonderfully loyal, generous and fun friend. He looked after people as well as running a successful business and was a passionate follower of the Whites.

His desperately sad passing aged only 45 shocked his family, friends and all those who followed Fulham alongside him over many years. Matty’s friends would like to remember him during the 45th minute of tomorrow afternoon’s match at Craven Cottage with a minute’s applause. In addition, prior to the match, some of Matty’s friends will be meeting in Bishop’s Bar (previously known as Bloom), 399 Fulham Palace Road from 11am to celebrate his life and walk to the ground together from at 1.15pm.

We’d like to do our part in spreading this message both on our website and via social media as well as offering our sympathy and prayers to Matty’s friends and family at this difficult time. May Matty Rest in Peace.
