I ve been meaning to ask people two questions but will put them in one thread..... 1, Who scored the first Fulham goal you saw live??? Mine I think was Nick Cusack it was definately in a 4-4 draw at home to Northampton Fulham were 4-2 down in the 90th minute ended up drawing amazing game! 2. Pet hate in football ??? I have two, referees evening up a bad decision with another bad decision and secondly trophys being won for pre season tournaments and the press reporting the club/manager winning there first piece of silverware
1. Graham Leggat. Know that because my Dad, a Scot, wouldn't let me forget. 2. Two also. Firstly teams bringing everybody back to defend a corner. Secondly, groundstaff who turn on the sprinklers even when it's been raining cats and dogs. Oh dear, have I just taken a swipe at my favourite club!?
1. Jeff Eckhardt, with an assist from an on-loan youngster by the name of Andy Cole. Whatever happened to him? Fulham were my team from childhood - the days of Gordon Davies, Ray Houghton and co - but didn't start actually going to matches until my early 20s. 2. This isn't a dig at anyone on this board (honest!) but ignorant fans heaping abuse on players and officials regardless of what is actually happening on the pitch. I can remember linesmen getting dogs abuse from people around me who clearly don't understand the rules that have been correctly applied; players who do a lot of excellent work in ways that aren't obvious being vocally criticised by fans who don't understand the subtleties of a particular position (I mostly played in attacking roles, mainly as a striker, so I understand attacking play a lot better than defending. Maybe that's why I stood by Senderos longer than most!). So, in summary, hateful ignorance.
