    Name the Fulham player who has the best win ratio, (that is, the percentage of games we have won in the games he played) since we joined the Premiership

    I'm thinking someone who joined under Roy and missed the Sanchez era... I'm tempted by Schwarzer or Hangeland, but I'll go for Bobby Zamora, simply because the losses when he was out injured won't be on his stats.

    I actually saw this article, so I know the answer. It is certainly someone a little surprising!

    I was going to go for somebody like Duffers or Hangeland, but I really couldn't say. I'll bet it's someone ridiculous like Senderos.

    Also interesting is the winning percentage of these players at other Premier League clubs:

    Aston Villa - Steve Sidwell 53% (24 wins in 45 games)
    Birmingham City - Geoff Horsfield 41% (14 wins in 34 games)
    Tottenham Hotspur - Mousa Dembele 67% (16 wins in 24 games)

    Oh, and assuming that C58 used the same stats I saw, it's based on a minimum of 20 appearances for the club.

    Yup, it's the same stats Surly. Quite fascinating the Fulham connection with the 3 you mention. Nobody has come up with the answer to actual quiz question yet, so


    Clue: He was a forward and also played for Man Utd.

    Haha, I nearly said Berbatov. Makes sense, as we've never lost when he's scored...

    Not Saha. Another Clue: His nickname (or one of them anyway) is 'Super-Sub'.

    Bloody Hell, Andy Cole? Sorry, Andrew Cole. That would be a shocker.

    No, it's not Andrew Cole. The Captain's logic was good, even if he went for the wrong players.

    I saw this on Twitter, it is Nevland. It's something like 50% right?
