Well and truly reamed - looks like Smithies balanced out his penalty save.

Fulham 1-1 QPR

Steve Brown Former West Ham reserve-team coach on BBC Radio London

9:51 - The ball was put back in by Scott Parker, he's floated in and it caught Alex Smithies out, he flapped it, tIM Ream came onto it and volleyed it in. QPR could be bang in trouble.

GOAL (Ream)
Fulham 1-1 QPR

9:49 -After knocking on the door in the first half, Fulham have clattered it down with a battering ram.
Scott Parker lofts the ball into the area and Tim Ream is there to bundle the ball home past Alex Smithies.

Fulham 0-1 QPR

9:48 - Fulham get us back under way in the so far feisty London derby.

On the PA as the teams came out is London Calling by The Clash. What an apt tune to start the second half.


HT: Fulham 0-1 QPR

Steve Brown Former West Ham reserve-team coach on BBC Radio London

9:35 - You have to give QPR credit for keeping a clean sheet - hook or by crook with bodies in the way, Fulham have been trying to pick corners rather than blasting. How it's 1-0 I don't know.

Why always us? His 1st goal for Fulham! How long has he been there?

On August 20, 2015, Ream was sold to Fulham, signing a 4-year deal with the club.[32] The move was undisclosed fee and has an option to extend his stay by a further year.[33]

Ream made his Fulham debut on August 29, 2015, in a 3–1 win over Rotherham United, playing 90 minutes.[34] However, Ream made twenty–nine appearance for the club in his first season, due to relegation to the substitute bench, international commitment[35] and injuries.[36][37] Despite this, Ream, initially, used in the center-back, but following the departure of James Husband, Ream began to be used in the left–back position towards the end of the season.[38]


56' Random fact of the day.

Tim Ream's first goal for Fulham means there has been 950 goals in the EFL so far this season and my GCSE Maths tells me we've got 50 more to go until we reach 1,000.

Both sides have had decent crosses into the area cleared since the goal and this has been breathless so far.

It sounds from the radio that every time they get the ball they nearly score and when get it we give it away or waste it.
 
It's my Birthday today and, now that I am of a certain age, I have been furiously sorting out pension options etc.
Then my phone reminded me that we were the early KO and then we go and score!!

Come on Rangers.......................for my Birthday!
Checks calendar......is it first of April or first of October?

Happy Birthday Col.
 
Sounds like we are being put to the sword.

QPR defender Steven Caulker is the latest man to save his side.

Scott Parker's half volley looks destined for goal and Caulker audaciously backheels it away for safety.

Rangers make a change, bringing off Sebastian Polter for Idrissa Sylla.


QPR keeper Alex Smithies was waving goodbye to Ryan Tunnicliffe's strike from distance and was very grateful to see it fly just past the post.

Meanwhile, we have our first change of the day as Fulham replace striker Chris Martin with striker Matt Smith.

Martin missed a bit of a sitter in the first half so maybe Slavisa Jokanovic wanted to take him out of the firing line.
