MJ's take on life as of today - Fulham manager Martin Jol has set Fulham an ambitious target following their shock Europa League exit. Jol's side go into tomorrow's home game with the Premier League's bottom club, Bolton, just three points clear of the drop zone in 15th place. With a win Fulham can move up to 11th spot. The manager said: "I will try to get this club in the top 10 and then in the top eight, and maybe the top six. That's my mission. "We have to fight until the end of the season. Hopefully, we'll get 40 points as soon as possible." Jol is seeking to promote the positives of recent domestic performances, including those he saw in last week's loss at Swansea. "Even in that match, after a bad first half, we pushed forward and created four or five chances," he said. "We're always on the fringe of doing something and sometimes it comes off, like it has against Arsenal, Wigan, Sunderland and Liverpool. We're a good team."
Will be there today to support them. Both MJ and the players... MJ's statement is something like: "who ever believes me in me, follow me"

I will also be there to support them, at a difficult time for the club this really is one of the best fixtures we could hope for so as FFCmadness said lets get behind the team and manager and turns things around for the club.
Great result. The players did their job. Bit annoyed with Murphy and wanted Jol to make a couple of changes to refresh the team but the result counts. On and upwards!
By the way the second half performance reminded me a lot of Wednesday. The team sat back and absorbed the pressure, maintaining some strength for Wednesday against Man U. So not sure it was Jol's fault last Wednesday.
Glad to see we had a full house,and got behind the team. Demps top man,Ruiz coming along nicely,Stockdale looked at ease, and overall a solid performance. Worrying factor the last 10/15 minutes,to casual again,and this was against a poor side who lacks confidence. Lets hope its now onwards and upwards. I still think there will be movements in the Jan transfer market.
