Didn't we then? I mean, what part of being better than Fulham over the season isn't "doing it for ourselves"? I'm not sure I buy into all this "relying on others to lose" narrative. It's exciting at the end of the season and all that but in the end the table speaks for itself and if we stay up then that's because we've been better than at least three other teams throughout the whole season.

I know Fulham seem to be every NSC’ers second favourite club.
But I find them irritating under the Khan’s.
Huge spender in summer 2018, double our summer 2017 spend.
Ridiculous spending/borrowing a few weeks into this season, they basically changed their first team, with a load of ‘names’ from across Europe. I don’t think the EPL should allow that.
Anyway ..... it failed. Money doesn’t always talk in the EPL.

I would also love that, only one problem, Brighton don't do boring mid table, even if we finish reasonably well we have flirted with relegation, at least we were not in the bottom 3.
I'm getting tired of the stress over many years of either relegation or promotion.
What would be great is the chance of being in with a shout of the UEFA cup slot, instead of the bottom end of the table.
Strange thing is, I am so used to it that I would probably get bored of more than one season of mid table mediocrity.

We did. 10 points and an excellent goal difference ago. I have to keep explaining this to Mrs Earle. I didn't expect to have to do it here as well
I’ve found myself caught out by the annual ‘Three Teams More Shit Than Us’ celebrations being early this year. I don’t think I’ve even got any Blue Nun in.
Or saying in November that Mat Ryan would deny Fulham a victory with a last minute header... for Arsenal. The men in the white boats, whoever they are, would go crazy... men in white coats would have to go get em.
Not mine.I don’t think they are any Albion fans “second favourite club” I think it’s more like many of our fans enjoy a day out in London on the lash and Fulham is a decent away day.

Smart arse. Third favourite club then, after Leeds United.
According to some of the wankers in the Croydon area, we all support Chelsea.

Lol that was the clearest sending off you’ll ever see, taking pity on a relegated team
What is wrong with the ref's in this country. Fulham penalised because the player tries to stay on his feet and then then their keeper should be off.
**** me.
Is VAR switched off tonight
Two in a couple of mins.....what looked like a pen for Fulham denied and clear handball outside the area by Arieola.......
