Club Statement

Friday 21st December 2007

Fulham Football Club today announced its decision to replace Lawrie Sanchez as Manager of Fulham Football Club with immediate effect. Ray Lewington and Billy McKinlay will be in charge of the team whilst a search for a permanent replacement takes place.

Following a run of disappointing results the Club is languishing in the relegation zone of the Premier League table, and losing its Premier League status is a proposition that simply can not be contemplated at this stage in the Club’s on-going development.

The Club is confident that it will find the right replacement to increase its chances of remaining in the Premier League, which is of vital importance.

The Club would like to thank Lawrie for helping the Club through a difficult period at the end of last season, and thank him for his service over the last eight months.
