    Something wasn't quite right today! Really if Fulham players could finish they wpuld have scored 3 or 4 easily. We don't usually give away so many clear chances!

    I'm not worried about one off day, see another 2 or 3 like that in a row and I'll be saying different but I can see things being better next week!

    Disappointing performance all over the park today. Looked to be some tired players out there. Maybe a few leggy players after the European games. Still think we needed the extra man in midfield today as they played 1 up top. Anyway it's now about how we react in the next game. To top it all the train stopped at preston due to broken track and its a bus to Carlisle. Happy happy days.

    Just got home. Cracking day, ****e at the football. It’s been a while since that was the case so we can take it. Massive game next weekend before 3 ridiculously tough fixtures.

    Disappointing today but we were never in the game. Felt like a needlessly defensive setup. Hopefully back to our 433 next Sat and go again. 3 points important with some tough games coming up,

    Poor performance today, seems like heads went down a bit after some strange decisions by the Fulham 12th man... the ref. What was the free kick for when they went and scored? Oh well, onwards and upwards just beaten by 12 man Fulham, will be much better 11 v 11 next game.

    Just watched the highlights. Poorest we've been so far. That will happen, but we'll not get blown away by anyone. As we've seen, we are still in games at the end. Today wasn't one of those days. Move on and learn from it.

    Only saw the second half but it looked like we just didn't get going. Disappointing result but these things happen. Onwards and upwards against Bournemouth.

    Hope everyone got home safely. I read on Facebook that the trains were chaotic.

    They looked a yard quicker than us all over the pitch, and our subs came on very late again, possibly due to them not scoring till late on, I was hoping they would score earlier tbh , to force a change. Having said that the Talbi decision to turn right was a shocker as has been mentioned. We should give credit to their manager and players who got it spot on imo., and I don,t know where to start about the ref. , totally one sided or useless is the best I can manage.

    They were @becs . I decided to drive to Carlisle and go westside into euston to avoid the chaos on LNER. Mistake as trains stopped at preston on way back due to a broken track so it was buses to penrith then Carlisle and then a tired drive home. Blooming knackered.

    My first thoughts, on the final whistle, were for our supporters ... you included mate.

    Sounds soppy but my thoughts were with you all last night, deserved better.

    Haven’t found the desire to watch these yet. I guess we are so proud of this team that poor performances like yesterday are a shock
