Podcast: We Dreamed of Ream
8th August 2024
“We dreamed of Ream, oh what a guy…”
It’s a sad day in SW6 as the club parts ways with our very own Captain America, the Cottage Colossus of Tim Ream, whose move to Charlotte was confirmed on Wednesday. There’s a little bit of time to pay our tributes to a man who has served Fulham Football Club with distinction over the past nine years, as well as a moment to relive one of the best ever This’ll Catch On’s in his honour.
Before we get to that emotional farewell though, there’s a bit of pre-season to discuss too, so Jack and Sammy are joined by Jack Kelly, who has been covering the games in the Algarve, to get his thoughts on the camp as a whole, the two performances against Sevilla and Benfica, and where Fulham are in our preparations for the season beginning in 8 (!!!) days.
There’s also some transfer talk, including the latest on the André saga, with news coming out of Brazil that Fluminense’s willingness to put their star midfielder on the market is growing again, as well as some thoughts on where the squad needs augmenting before the window closes at the end of August.
