Fulham's 1904 Plans for Stevenage Road Stand [PHOTO] #ThrowbackThursday - EPL Talk

Fulham still has one of the quaintest soccer grounds in the utmost effective flight of England. A close runner-up is Goodison Park, but Fulham sets it self apart by having a smaller ground with the Cottage located in the place as well as the lovely Johnny Haynes Stand that runs along the side of the message, with its gable a' one of many few gables left at a ground across Britain. The club a week ago shared their 1904 plans for the Stevenage Road Stand (now renamed the Johnny Haynes Stand). You can see a version of the impression here, where you can see increased detail and which is bigger. Itas amazing to believe that the exact same stand remains used 99 years later and has been relatively unchanged in all of that time. H/T The First Winger.
