Fulham Supporters’ Trust statement on Slavisa Jokanovic
Tom Greatrex, Chair of Fulham Supporters’ Trust, said:
“The Fulham Supporters’ Trust are disappointed to see Slavisa Jokanovic leave the Club, and want to put on record the thanks and appreciation of Fulham fans for the achievements under his close to three years as manager. Earlier this week, the Club stated their wish to see him succeed, and it will continue to be a matter of debate whether this dismissal has come too early. Viewing events only through recent weeks risks missing that at the time he took over as manager, he inherited a directionless squad and club seemingly in disarray with a restless fanbase. That he was able to produce one of the most admired footballing teams of recent years in the Championship, playing with style and panache to secure promotion at a memorable day at Wembley a few months ago, will always stand as his achievement. That he did so with the backdrop of well publicised disruptive behavour in the background and a quiet and determined dignity despite provocation makes that achievement all the more remarkable. We would like to wish Slav well for the future, and he will always go down as one of the great Fulham managers.”
