Upon becoming your Chairman in 2013, I truly embraced the history of this special Club and learned immediately what our supporters have celebrated for generations, George Cohen is intrinsically embedded in that history.
We have been exceptionally blessed at Fulham Football Club to be able to call George Cohen, our very own. The unmatched success of 1966 put him in the hearts of an entire nation, but it was Fulham where he spent his career and he meant the world to the Club.
Over the last nine years I was able to get to know George and his wife Daphne, which has been an honour. He was a kind and humble man, always generous with his time and always a story to tell.
George and his family are in my heart today and always, and I thank George for setting the ultimate standard at Fulham as a player and a person.
