Wasn't it just. More than worth staying up for. That's one set of Rs down, one more later today will do nicely. DALLAS CUP CHAMPIONS please log in to view this image
Absolutely class, what a fantastic team performance, even the subs who came on looked the part. Congratulations to Wigley and his staff, game plan worked to perfection and was carried out to the letter by the players. The future is bright for Fulham, we have some really good footballing players coming through, great discipline and they all look so comfortable on the ball.
Great team performance - high pressing confused the hell out of Reysol. All worked very hard after a tough week. Good to see how they all think so much of Grimmer.
The club may have planned something,but if not, it would be a fitting tribute,for the fans to see and and cheer on the lads,following their magnificent performance. Maybee the last home match of the season
I was thinking that. Maybe at the Arsenal match, assuming that's a normal afternoon kickoff? I would really like to see Tankovic get a few sub appearances at the end of this season. I think an energetic young forward like him or Woodrow could really benefit from some time on the pitch with Berba.
Diddy David made an announcement last night which got a decent cheer. I don't understand why the Club aren't making more of it though - it's like we are the U19 World Champions for goodness sake. Why haven't they been feeding it to the press? Or maybe they have and it's being ignored but I'm not aware of a mention anywhere. That's a great idea to have the team parade the cup at the Cottage, rosc. Probably sooner than later lest it's forgotten. The next home game is the mid-week Chelsea one, but the Arsenal match (20th April) would be much better in my opinion (would get more respect). The U18s have a game that morning (away to Chelsea as it happens) so it should be feasible to get them bussed over to the Cottage for lunch and a parade. Hopefully something will be done to reflect the significance of the victory and how well Steve Wigley and the lads did.

scanning todays football gossip I see another two of our talented youngsters are on the wanted list, Jack Grimmer and Cauley Woodrow. Celtic, Everton, & Cardiff,the clubs mentioned. It also appears that Yeovil would like to sign Dan Burn permenantly.
