Well blow me down and call me Percy. Fulham have only gone and smashed a cup voodoo and stuffed Spurs. OK to be fair Spurs self-destructed in the first 15 minutes but being a Fulham fan I wouldn't have bet against us conceding 4 in the 2nd half for a draw.

Some real positives though with Dembele and Johnson starting to look back to full fitness and the defence looking pretty solid although in fairness they weren't really tested.

I see Keane has gone out on loan and I thought that strange. Surely a proven scorer and more likely to do something than one trick pony Crouch. They did look lightweight up front today. Right I'm off to make sure it isn't all a dream

For me as a Gooner, it made me chuckle! I've always rated Fulham and thought it would have been more of an even game!

Haven't seen the goals yet, the 4th was supposed to be a good individual goal.

I've never understood the love-in for Crouch. He's OK with the ball on the deck but he can't head a ball to save his life! He's 6' 7" - he should score untold with his head but I'm better in the air than him.

Mediocre player at best.

I reckon people sign him just to see Abbey in the bar after the game...

They weren't chuckling at the Emirates today, that is until they got a very dubious penalty!

Good on fulham for that.

Redknapp should be sacked, excuses everytime, never puts his hands up.

Our strikers have 6 goals (5 for pav) in a combined 58 league appearances yet he sells keane and says we dont need a striker.

Without bale we would be nowhere, that is fact.

Redknapp is a 2-bob crook, end of.

Understatement there mate......if that was a penalty then I'm a Vega iron selling Frenchman!!!
We were robbed by a cheating git today!!

 

[USER1999]

Looked a penalty to me.

As much as it pains me to say it, I think the goons will win both the FA & League cups this season.

Infact so confident am I in this that I going to lump-on this down at corals later.

Totally agree, very average player IMO. Since he signed pro-forms at Spurs in 1998 he's had, including loan spells, 11 clubs! To me a top class striker would not have that many clubs in that timeframe. However at Chelsea we have Anelka who is probably the same age and has probably played at more clubs........and he is quality - doh

Was hoping we would have another good cup run, but away to Chelsea or Everton is not good.

Given Chelsea's recent form, I think every game at the moment is a disaster waiting to happen!! Reading haven't done too badly at the Bridge the last few times they've played there.

I was assuming we would be playing Everton !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jon, same should be said about your keeper!

and there was me thinking that with the ball at his feet he's more likely to trip over it than do anything useful

Nah - they had their chance on Saturday

Fulham for the cup???? Maybe. Fancy our chances in the next round and if we can miss a big club in the quarters then who knows. Cue the 3-1 home defeat to Wigan. It is Fulham after all and after 30+ years I know they'll flatter to decieve again
