Footnotes and References

Footnotes

  1. ↑ There is a discrepancy between sources for Fulham vs Preston North End on 28 November 2015. Sky Sports and the BBC's text commentary do not list Ryan Fredericks as having obtained a yellow card. However, in the BBC's team lineups, Fredericks does have a yellow card. On the Fulham F.C. website, Fredericks is credited with one in both the lineups and the commentary, but Alan Browne's yellow card does not appear in the commentary. This page uses the Sky Sports version for all games.
  2. ↑ There is a discrepancy between sources for Derby County vs Fulham on 26 December 2015. Sky Sports in both the summary and the main article lists Tim Ream as having scored this own goal. However, in both the BBC and Fulham F.C. versions, Emerson Hyndman is credited in the summaries but Ream in the articles proper.
