Proper football, proper victory

Sun, 11/16/2008 - 22:20
Woy’s comments for the BBC ring true: it was one of the best performances of the season. And it wasn’t because of Clint Dempsey starting, which is a celebration in of itself. Its because there were teeth up front, the one area of the pitch we have struggled in so much so far. Although he hasn’t [...]

When did the BPL become the NFL?

Sun, 11/09/2008 - 23:59
Three points separate 10th place (us) from 20th place (West Brom). In Germany, 3 points separate 16th from 18th. In Spain, its 17th to 20th. Same in Italy. France ups the ante to just 16th to 20th. I could go on, but who cares about the other leagues. So its little surprise that after today’s 2-1 victory [...]

Podcast is back!

Fri, 10/31/2008 - 16:01
It’s been over a month but its back! Steve from Cleveland joins the pod as we discuss the drop in form since the last podcast (coincidence?) and the quality-ish results from the past few matches and look ahead to Everton. Oh, and Maradona is coaching Argentina?!? Podcast!

character/sliding doors

Tue, 10/28/2008 - 01:20
At about this time last year, Fulham had a terrible habit of conceding late goals, and sacrificing points. Yet today the club showed some grit and determination to snatch a point out of the jaws of defeat. And by the club I’m really referring to two substitutes: Erik “Iceman” Nevland and Clint Dempsey. The additions of [...]

Johnny Haynes

Wed, 10/22/2008 - 03:14
I really should apologize for not devoting any time to the unveiling of the Johnny Haynes statue outside of Craven Cottage on Saturday. Its quite commendable because most of it was funded from us fans. And much like Larry Bird was to the Celtics, Joe Dimaggio to the Yankees, and Ted Williams to the Red [...]

One step forward, two steps sidewards.

Sat, 10/18/2008 - 23:32
Let me preface this post with this: Hodgson will be fired by Christmas. We were lucky to get a point today, as fortune in the incarnation of the woodwork and the referee smiled upon us. And all our parts played like usual. The defense solid and compact, with Schwarzer making some timely and key saves. [...]

Reserves win; ledger looks grim

Thu, 10/09/2008 - 13:48
There’s some postivity around Craven Cottage for once, as the reserves won 4-1 over West Ham at Motspur Park. And the West Ham site even had liveblogging. But then, I feel like I’ve written posts like this before. Oh wait, I have. Nonetheless Nevland, Seol, Wayne Brown and Julian Grey (remember him?) scored for the club in [...]

Fall Doldrums

Sun, 10/05/2008 - 02:53
Thank God its only October. Because after tomorrow Fulham could, albeit unlikely, drop to 19th position. Which is shocking reality considering the quality of play the club displayed at the opening gong. Nothing was to come of Hull City, I knew that. But Arsenal was no aberration. The comeback against Leicester was epic. Bolton was easily [...]

Unbelievable.

Sat, 09/27/2008 - 23:03
Well, where to begin… Hodgson not using any subs? AJ proving to be a bust? Dempsey vindicated for wanting out? No goals from open play in over 5 hours of game time? Lets start with AJ, because his stupidity caused this mess. When we was signed for 10 million pounds this past summer, I was extremely [...]

West Ham preview

Fri, 09/26/2008 - 14:31
Dickson Etuhu is the only injury concern heading into tomorrow’s big match against West Ham, which is no concern of mine. And I say this match is a big one not because its a relegation 6-pointer, but because it will be the best testament of what Woy had done with the squad. If we can get [...]
