2005–06 Fulham F.C. season

Fulham were again managed by Chris Coleman and they managed to achieve a 12th-place finish in the Premier League, one place higher than the previous season. Their best results of the season were home wins against Chelsea (1–0) and Liverpool (2–0).

In the League Cup, they reached the third round by winning an exciting game against Lincoln City 5–4 after extra time, but they then succumbed to West Bromwich Albion. In the FA Cup, they fell at the first hurdle with a humiliating 2–1 home defeat to Leyton Orient.
