The Whites were sat in the relative normality of mid-table in the Championship while Fulham were worryingly close to the relegation zone for their meeting in March, 2015.
Head coach Neil Redfearn was taking charge of his second spell as head coach after the sacking of both Dave Hockaday and Darko Milanic by turbulent owner Massimo Cellino.
Goals from Thorp Arch academy product Sam Byram, defender Sol Bamba and striker Mirco Antenucci sealed an impressive 3-0 victory in the capital.
