Don, I would agree with your red card comment, the ref was taken in by the Reading players reaction, one of which punched the air in delight and as if the plan had worked, IMO. I'm still bemused that we got a card either straight red or yellow for every 2nd foul we committed in the game. 8 fouls and 4 cards wow!
He got sent off in a similar incident in a similar area of the pitch for us against Sheff Wed, hearing the guy speak he is professional and wouldn't intentionally hurt a fellow player.
In all honesty the only winners from this transfer are Leeds United. Fulham won't get promoted this season, statistics aren't on your side. Relegated sides very rarely get promoted at the first attempt, and next season I can imagine him putting in a transfer request at the first sniff of an opportunity in the Premier League, what with his age. He won't get you promoted and you'll be forced to sell him for less than you've paid.
At least we have support unlike your Mickey Mouse excuse for a club. Gatecrashed the pl for a few seasons but now rightly back where you belong. On second thoughts, looks like you're heading back to where you belong. In my youth, Fulham were a division two or Three team and won't be at all surprised to see them settle back there. Don't expect McCormack to hang around for too long there
These Fulham lads are very polite Eire, don't you be antagonising them. It's enough to have robbed them of £11.5 mill for McContract and Matt (calamity kid) Smith. It's the best robbery to take place in England since Bruce, Buster, Ronnie and the boys looked at a railway timetable.
