Let's hope this is the start of a bad patch for Fulham against some tough opponents. I think this is going to be a case of we don't pick up much but that's okay because those below us don't pick up much either.

Tough on Fulham. Played well. Can't win, tough fixtures. Scott Parker will probably say they learnt something.

Not really they only had 3 shots on target and 11 overall.

Fulham played well, they didn’t deserve to lose that.

I’m glad they did though.

They did and if there is one team that presently look too good to go down its them. Mentioned a couple of days ago, 3rd bottom will likely be us, Newcastle,Fulham or Burnley.... but I dont think it will be Fulham, playing well and really full of fight.

The transformation from first few games of season is incredible.

Both games going in Albion’s favour tonight.

Let’s hope our Barn Door troopers can fathom how to shoot accurately on Saturday, Leicester are missing some key players so it’s a great opportunity for us to move six points clear of Fulham.

All Spurs are is a Palace with better forwards. They are soooooooooo boring. If they were playing in my garden I'd close the curtains

Fulham always look full of pace and power but when we played them we dominated them for 90 minutes both games. I guess looks can be deceptive.

All those on this thread saying it was harsh to rule out Fulham's goal......we would have left Craven Cottage with all three points if exactly the same rule hadn't ruled out Lallana's "goal" earlier in the season.

Don’t you think we’re too good to go down?

We dominate everyone and then don't win because of our utterly crap goal-flids. That's just what we do, so I can't see that drawing any conclusions from that is sensible.

Unfortunately no I dont. We cant score, some very inconsistent attackers and a couple more not up to this level. I hope we can stay up obviously, and to build from this...... got a free hit Saturday, but wouldnt be surprised if we went down.

As Potter said pre WBA game when referring to big Sam and differences of style to us/WBA.

At the end of the day its not about the stats or the technical styles, its only about scoring one more goal than the opposition.

He's right, Its that simple, if we cant after 38 games, we are not too good to go down.

Big Sam has just said something along the lines of "we don't get the luck we deserve"

Well that is two sides down, obvs a bunfight for the third. I reckon either Fulham or the Toon, we are a bit crap, but not quite as crap as them....

I have to agree with you, but Fulham’s problem is dominating some games but not scoring. Yet you think they deserve to stay up. That was my point really. At the end of the day enough points on the board will decide if you are good enough to stay up. Still think we’ll just be good enough.
