Fulham's 2011–12 season marked their 114th as a professional club and their 11th consecutive campaign in the Premier League. They finished 9th in the league table, concluding their season with a 0–2 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur on 13 May 2012. Beyond domestic duties, the club competed in the FA Cup, League Cup, and the UEFA Europa League, with their European qualification coming through the UEFA Fair Play ranking—a unique distinction—entering in the first qualifying round. The draws for these early rounds were held at UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland, on 20 June, 15 July, and 5 August 2011, setting the stage for their continental run. This season showcased Fulham's stability in the top flight and their ability to secure European football through exemplary conduct on the pitch.
