Overview[]

The 1885-86 season was Fulham's (then known as St Andrew's) fourth in regard to organised football. The club entered its first ever cup competition but they found themselves hopelessly out of their class when they lost 9-0 at Hendon in the 1st round of the London FA Cup on 27 October 1885.

All other matches were friendlies, two of which were the first known matches against the club's first real fierce rivals, the Stanley FC. It was also the final season in which the club went by the name of just St Andrew's, changing it to Fulham St Andrew's the following season, due to other teams in London going by the same name.
