I like the way we suddenly launch into impressionists.
Yeh a bunch of players giving the impression that they have the desire to win, even when not playing well.
It's all about team spirit, live with it Fulham

From the same thread
Must say I missed this so called cheating, and didn't really notice anything. Unlike many other times at the cottage, noticeably Wednesday this season.
Was impressed by Brighton in the second half. They had leaders all over the field and really knew how to turn in the screw. They are the first team in a while that has made us blindly panic. They did what winners do, which is use willpower and belief to pull them through games they are struggling. We are of course the opposite in the sense that we boss most games but don't have the belief to see games through and go on a significant winning run.
Some balance there, I think.

Some really pathetic comments in there. Quite funny.
I've seen Brighton a few times on tv and having listened this pm I take solace in the fact that if they go up not one of that squad is Prem standard.
As for us, agree with others: you must score penno's and you must apply pressure. Sounds like Ream was suspect again today whereas Dunk is the sort of thug we need.

Not seen such Bravery!
Of course we are.
It is the only possible explanation for little old Brighton beating anyone.

We are cheating our way out the league and dont have the players to substain a place in the EPL. Talk about sour grapes.

they're pretty generous about us on this podcast...
"almost definitely going up this season...we need to look at the [Brighton] model...keeping their core of players and building around it..."
"Brighton have done what every Championship club should be doing...they decided to not change things in the summer...they added wisely"

Some of those comments are just unbelievably sad. Sour grapes of the highest order, we are cheats, none of our players are Premier League standard, Dunk is a thug.....why do so many fans decide how good or bad an opposing team are based on one fixture? Thanks for the 6 points.

The comments on that thread rather reminded me of things that used to get said on here when Poyet was still the gaffer!

I find it funny (in a strange way) when we Brighton are taking the micky out of fans for sour grapes when last May we seemed to have a full crop of them ourselves.
As regards cheating , I am not sure what they are alluding to. Most players seemed to give as much as they got e.g. Reach & Murray were always at it.

TBH most of whats on that thread I would expect to see here had we been on the receiving end of a similar smash and grab.
The only part I take offence from is that we're cheating our way to promotion. Sour grapes it may be but think the Fulham massive are naive in their assumption that over a 46 game season any team can simply rely on it's beautiful football to allow natural order to exist in the final league positions. Presumably, although they didn't say as much, they felt the challenge on Tomer and award of a pen was harsh?
As we know to our ultimate cost last season we fell foul of being out gamed a couple of times last season and the experience, and permanent addition of more resilient players such as Sidwell and Duffy, has seen us overcome that weakness. Long may it continue.

In a subsequent post he went on to say how in 63 years of watching Fulham not once has he seen them employ such underhand tactics as gamesmanship relying solely on their beautiful football to go up. Bet Micky Adams promotion winning team had more than a touch of such guile.....

Maybe if their fans were a bit more passionate during the game rather than whining afterwards it might rub off on their players.
