I remember that Fulham 6-0 as being about the only home game where I was able to relax for the last 20 mins.

After being 3-0up v Everton after 27 mins and hanging on desperately for the entire second half, as they dominated at 3-2 and had us pinned in our own box, never really felt relaxed again when we were in front.

I was with my Dad for that Everton game and at 3-0 up I said "This is a nice easy one, Dad".

"It's not over yet" he said.

Nah, relax and enjoy it, I said.

Oops <laugh>

I was front row North Stand next to the goal for that match. I will always remember seeing Tim Howard's look of 'oh ****!' the instant Andy Dawson hit the free kick. He seemed to immediately know it was unstoppable. <laugh>

Didn't he have Tourette's syndrome?

He probably said "oh ****" as well

Tortuous second half I recall.

Also, think a young Tom Cairney came in for Bullard and was great.
