Fulham let a 3-1 lead slip to go 4-3 down at Wolves in 90th min, but had the balls to come back in 4th min of added time to make it 4-4. We have no balls it seems to do anything, let alone score goals - useless.
Relegation battle a bit more exciting than mid-table mediocrity??!!....just trying to find the positives amidst the gloom
One win in 16, that was in the august. I need shooting for not betting on them to win us to nil. We all knew it was going to happen.
i know he was responsible for a lot of s**t 999's , but I don't think Stuart Houston can take the blame for today!
FFS should have got a result there but we all new we wouldn't against a team at the bottom & won only one match all season!
Under Holloway, we're dropping like a stone. Not giving him all the blame but we seem to have gone from the frying pan to the fire.
It's not simply down to the manager. The players aren't good enough, if we're being brutally honest. We've got ourselves a toxic mix of new to the league overseas players, and players from league one. Throw in a few underperforming players signed from the championship and here we are. The recruitment process has been awful.
the problem for me is, that as much organising,hard work,unity,gelling,team spirit and all the other cliches that exist in football ,you cant make a silk purse out of a sows ear..the hard cold reality is that we are way short in quality..on and off the pitch.
What exactly is Ollie's way of having the team play? He's bragged about how he will getting Henry play with his coaching ... and drops him! We've played a couple of very poor teams - and been described as poorer. How bad does that make us! Where was the new manager bounce? I'm more worried than when we appointed Ollie.
The recruitment has been largely down to Sir Les, his position should be under review. Going back to the match it appears Holloway's post match rant in the locked dressing room could be heard from the press room...
it wont matter a jot,you can scream and bawl till kingdom come and it wont sink into inferior quality players ..I wasnt happy with ollies appointment as i thought he was a step back and an appeasement
At Watford Gap now... That second half was absolutely appalling. 1-0 flattered us in the end. The whole team was an absolute shambles. The substitutions were awful. The tactic second half seemed to be to pump long diagonal balls to no one in particular. We were playing as basic a team as you'll ever see at this level and they smashed us with nothing more than a bit of hard work.
I disagree. I think we have signed a number of decent players considering the financial constraints Ferdinand has been working under....... Smithies, Ingram, Hall, Luongo and Chery are certainly good enough. Wszolek, Borysiuk, Sylla, and Ngbakoto have all looked good, but haven't been seen enough to judge properly and will need time to adapt. Bidwell, Cousins, Washington and Polter have been disappointing, but should all be up to this level. El Khayati looks like a dud, but that was a JFH special, I think. We also still have a couple of Premier League players (on PL salaries) in Caulker and Sandro and some decent youngsters coming through. They are certainly underperforming, but that is down to deficient management and coaching, I would say, plus the need for some to be given time to settle in.
