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.

Not since Jean Tigana's reign have Fulham supporters enjoyed this record-breaking season so much.

With home wins over Arsenal & Manchester United, who we hadn't beaten at the Cottage since the sixties, culminating in our highest ever top flight finish and Europa League qualification. Roy Hodgson's Black & White Army has played in true Fulham style, attractive and entertaining, but with discipline at the back making us one of the best defences in the Premier League and top of the Fair Play League. Mark Schwarzer was superb in goal and Brede Hangeland a rock, but his partner at the back, the unsung Aaron Hughes, deserves a special mention, having gone the whole season without being booked, some achievement for a central defender and possibly another record?

Which team were your best opponents?

Liverpool were probably the best team we played at home and Manchester United the best away.

Who would you most like your team to sign this summer?

Peter Crouch, a proven Premier League striker, would be a good signing.

What was the weirdest/funniest moment of your season?

Andres Iniesta scoring against the team down the road in the Champions League semi-final.

Mark out of 10 for the season?
