You guys are on the wrong thread.:ears:
I suppose Brian is sneaking back on in anticipation of next season.
Of course we will not give him a hard time for some of his comments over the past season.:mmm:

Especially as it's a guaranteed 3 points against them 😜😂

Certainly will not have to worry about them scoring.

As I wrote, stop Newcastle from playing inside 20mis, get a goal, and the game is there for the taking, at time of writing this, Fulham were 0 - 3 up, I expect Newcastle may score, but I'll go for a 1 - 4 or 5 final score.

Great result for us, even had time to miss another penalty. I'll be honest, I had a feeling we could do something like that.

Oi!
I am listening to you lot, and ready to pass on my wisdom. Boro and Reading in the play-off's next season....

There was far too much made before this game about how we had to stop Newcastle, and there has been far too much talk since the game about how Newcastle had an off day.
The fact of the matter is we didn't and were never going to try to stop Newcastle playing, we were going to go and play our game and let them try to stop us, which they couldn't and didn't.
That was nothing to do with Newcastle having an off day, that was Fulham being the better team. Newcastle get where they are mainly through the individuals they have doing things on their own, but they can only do that if they have the ball and they couldn't get it off of us.
Negredo isn't playing because he's rubbish, or just not getting any decent service. He couldn't get into the Valencia side, and they are just a mid table side in a league like the SPL where once you're outside the top few its dire. By the time a Boro attack develops the defenders have had time to put the kettle on, pour the tea, butter the scone and then wash up.
Manager shouldn't have been allowed back after his temper tantrum last season. Boro got up in spite of him, not because of him. As for selling the likes of Rhodes and Nugent and then keeping Stuani and Negredo.... just beggars belief. Selling Adam Reach and bringing Traore, really? And then letting Nsue go.
Totally clueless...

looking at Brightons remaining fixtures they play one team that is currently in the top half of the league ,Leeds next match ,all the remaining games are against the bottom half sides .
im not sure that is good for us or not as the lower teams will be playing to stay up and you always get a couple of teams going on a little run at the end to assure safety for them selves.

It's getting to that time of year where league position goes somewhat out of the window. I think the top two now will stay there, but Huddersfield will run it close.

Agree, but our last four games are against teams in the bottom six, so hopefully relegation will have been sorted out by then, and teams will have nothing to play for. :thup:

Fantastic result for Fulham yesterday and yes Hawkeye you can say "I told you so". We are definitely the form team at the moment and win the game in hand on Tuesday and we're in the play off spots
I see Derby have sacked McClaren again http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/39251254 Not sure why they say a decline in results and team unity unless he's lost the dressing room big time some how. They are only 10 points off the play off spots with plenty of games left so hardly a write off season

2 wins in there last 10 games is hardly the kind of form that's going to see them make up that 10 point gap. Mcclaren may well be a very good coach but he's a terrible manager and how he keeps managing to get a manager's job baffles me.

Do you think that Fulham could stay up if they got there Martin?

Not a chance without major changes at the back and a better defensive midfield. We rely on dominating possession but we aren't good enough without the ball. We allow the opposition to create too many chances with very little possession and in the Premier League we'd never get away with it. We also don't currently play with a recognised striker very often so we'd need an upgrade there as well.
I think it would be a tough ask for any team other than Newcastle coming out of the Championship, without a major investment and overhaul that that is.
Obviously it would be great for Huddersfield to go up, and although they would be odds on to come straight back down, the experience and thrill ride and extra finances could only be a good thing for the club.

Well let's embrace it then. We're 1-0 up and in the play off spots. Let's see how long this lasts and where it takes us then

A draw not good enough tonight for top six. Prefer the win and start hunting Reading and Leeds down. Stupid penalty to give away and put ourselves under pressure
