6 loanees in the Fulham first XI. First, that’s a ****ing joke. But they played the system when Bruce only brought in Willock.

 

agree. Fulham are safe. They play good football too. I think Burnley can pull a good result out of the bag too. For me it’s down to us versus Brighton. The games against both of them will tell us who stays up. If we won them both we are safe. Lose and we are down.

 

Yeah but you don’t get to vote when it’s your own opinion.

 

You did so I did

 

The injuries finished our chances on survival.

 

I don’t think anyone, including me, disputes that we are in a relegation fight. But there is a big difference between that position and saying we are nailed on to go down.

As for the other teams Burnley have won only one game in their last six, as have Southampton, as have Brighton, as have we with Brighton having lost their last three games. Fulham are in good form but are still behind on points. So I don’t agree we are least likely to win games. We have as much chance as all the others have. As much as I like the posters on here I wouldn’t let half of them near any team I was in or managed. They’ve already given up.

 

I said we look the least likely to win - the way we go out and play games. Doesn't mean others will win or that we won't, but it does give an indication of how much there is to turn around to get out of this mess

 

But despite the implication In your post you weren’t the only one saying that.

 

I agree with what you said, but I still think you were wrong

 

Is that true. I didn’t think you could have that many loan players in your match day squad.

 

Yea 2 from this country, not sure if there's a limit on foreign loans

 

Looks like has nothing to do with it. Actual results are the only thing that counts. And the recent form suggests we have as much chance as any of the others To win a game.

 

Against Everton they played 11 loaners apparently.

 

I think I've just seen one of the worst pieces of play this season. Fulham counter, down the line to Lookman, two players steaming into the box....and he doesn't cross it, instead turns his back on the defenders as if playing for time, goes out for goal kick....in the 74th ****ing minute. Embarrassing.

 

I never said I was

 

Why shouldn't he? They're being clever something out lot certainly aren't

 

2-0 would be cleverer than wasting 20 seconds with 20 minutes still to play.

 

Might need to forget about Fulham. It might be Brighton we need to keep an eye on.

 

Sorry sounds desperate... Fulham are 1-0 away at Liverpool and in the cusp of closing a 10 point gap in 2 weeks... They're right to waste time..

 

Brighton have suffered because of lampteys injury, but he's back now skint with Danny welbeck... They've got a favourable run in also.
