I love this guide to watching footy from the Fulham site, do we have one?

What to Wear
What should I wear to the match?

Many supporters choose to wear replica shirts or other official items of Club clothing, such as scarves, hats, jackets and tracksuits. These can be purchased at either Club Shop, online at fulhamfc.com, or on matchdays at the stadium.

Branded clothing or accessories are often referred to as ?Club Colours?.

There are not many restrictions on clothing, although supporters should note that replica kits of the visiting team may not be worn in any Home area of the stadium. Supporters in all areas of the stadium should refrain from wearing items of clothing that are indecent, or that carry offensive wording or slogans.

Supporters in the Neutral Section may wear replica shirts or other items of clothing relating to either team.

We would advise supporters to dress comfortably and to take into account the weather conditions before travelling, including the chance of rain or snow. An up to date weather forecast can be obtained online at www.metoffice.gov.uk|

The average temperature in London varies over the course of the football season. You can expect average temperatures of approximately 12? in Autumn, 6? in Winter and 10? in Spring.

During winter it is not unheard of for temperatures to drop near to or below freezing. Being situated so close to a river, the stadium can also feel rather cold, particularly in winter or at evening games, so be sure to check the forecast and come prepared.

First Time Visitors
If you are new to the Cottage, or indeed to football, then we hope you enjoy your visit to our stadium.

Football crowds are passionate & loud but the atmosphere at Craven Cottage is friendly and the vast majority of fans are welcoming to first time visitors or new supporters. Improvements in stadium facilities have led to an increasingly diverse fan base in the Barclays Premier League.

Regular supporters will encourage their side by chanting, cheering and singing throughout the entire game. Noisy support is encouraged, but abusive behaviour or inappropriate chants or songs will not be tolerated. If you encounter any poor behaviour during your visit this can be reported to any Club steward or staff member located in your area of the stadium.

Although supporters will stand up from time to time during exciting periods of play, to ensure that everyone is able to enjoy the game supporters are asked to remain seated whenever possible. Persistent standing is not permitted. This rule is also policed by Club stewards, who can help in cases where your view is being impeded by another fan.

Particularly if you are seated in a lower part of the stand, be aware that footballs may leave the pitch quickly and enter the stand. Be particularly mindful of this during the pre-match warm-up if you are sat in the lower part of the Hammersmith or Putney End .

If you are unfamiliar with the players, both teams? squads are listed on the back page of the matchday programme, which can be purchased inside or outside the stadium for ?3.50.

Players are easily identifiable by their unique Squad Number, which remains the same over the course of a season.

Catering outlets are open pre-match and also at half-time, when they tend to be most busy. You will also find betting facilities (over 18s only), toilets & baby changing facilities located within the vicinity of each stand.

There are close to 800 staff members in and around the stadium on a matchday, so you are never far from assistance at any point in your visit.

We look forward to welcoming you to the Cottage.
