Half-Term Report: Fulham
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Jean Tigana's days appear numbered, which may well suit the Frenchman as much as his disenchanted chairman.How did it come to this? Answer: impatience. The days of creating, in Fayed's words, "a Manchester United of the south" are still a long way off. After all you need your own Old Trafford first and playing as temporary tenants at Loftus Road to the smallest crowds in the Premiership does not help. It now appears very unlikely they will ever return to Craven Cottage and some fans must be asking themselves if they are to be the next Wimbledon, especially if Fayed decides he wants some of his money back. In many ways, Tigana's reign has been an amazing success. He brought them up, got them into Europe and will, probably, steer them to safety this season. But many of his signings have backfired, and it turned very sour over Steve Marlet.
