11.30 kick off Cardiff v fulham

[Frutos]

Newcastle in the Cup at the Amex (2nd time) was a fairly early start I think - we had Breakfast Pies as the special option.

 

[Gwylan]

Didn't we play Pompey at Withdean on a Saturday with a very early KO ?

I'm sure we played Southend on New Year's Day at 12.00. I remember getting up at silly o'clock to get down from London

 

[glasfryn]

straight out of chapel to the game for the welsh.................................then to the pub

 

[Prince Monolulu]

Freesat 976...11.20. Nice to have a live game on this early.

Thanks for that - BBC1 Wales - never watched it until now.

2000, allowing Darren Freeman to score the first British pro goal of the new millennium

It was Exeter on January 3rd 2000 that Freeman scored for a 4-2 , Southend was the following season when they brought their beach with them to play on

Fair enough, going off memory. That game must have been the earliest kick off that day though.

Ground is empty. Why not stick the away fans behind a goal

 

[Bozza]

You travel all that way at that time on a Sunday morning (well about 12 of you do) and you're 1 down inside 10 minutes and you don't have a proper striker playing for you.

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

1-1

I remember the early kick off walking over the hill to it, as I had worked since NYE on the Friday I wasn't hung over . Southend the following year was the worst, early kick off on NYD, beach for a pitch and losing 0-2 at home so they did the double that season

 

[Bigtomfu]

Bennett showing why he's on loan at somewhere like Cardiff. Whole hearted for us two seasons ago but ultimately not up to it.

 

[Bozza]

2-1 Fulham, who are looking as good as they did against us.

Fredericks is destroying poor Joe Bennett.

 

[Sheebo]

I really rate Fulham - delighted that we've already played them twice let alone got 6 points from them! They'll take points off the current top 6 for sure from here. I'd also make a move for Fredricks, Aluko and Cairney if we went up and they didn't. All class players and would cut it in the Prem.

And they already have taken points off the top six. Looking through their results, the next highest placed team they have lost to is Villa in 12th. We have done so well to get six points from them (whether or not people think we deserved to win either game) and agree it is great we've not got to play them again.

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

Glad Fulham are 18 points behind us.

 

[Prince Monolulu]

Should have been 3 or 4 up by half-time at The Amex, and we got away with it again at The Cottage. Stockdale made a big difference in both games ironically. As has been said, really pleased that's it lest a Cup game.
Best side I've watched in this League, aside from us of course.

Exactly this.

Imagine how good they can be if they can add a decent striker in January as well.
