Dead leg

[Ohio Saint]

This game is totally winnable.....Which is worrying me now.

[Thedelldays]

If we don't win this game... We are in trouble

 

Fulham are terrible

[trousers]

Mark Bright saying we're pressing high up the field "just like Barcelona"!

[trousers]

That's about 50 passes worth of possession from Saints

[JoeShmoe]

How are we not two up. Come back to haunt us

[tpbury]

If we don't win this game... We are in trouble

 

Fulham are terrible

 

agree, but 2nd half will prob be diff story

[Glasgow_Saint]

********.... Bit more placement

[trousers]

Oooh. ....lambert misses

[Saintandy666]

I think we're playing well too.

[Sheaf Saint]

So far Fonte has managed to find a Fulham player with just about every clearing header today - even when under no pressure. It's like he's deliberately trying to give the ball away. It's only a matter of time before we concede IMO. Better pray we score another one or two because 1-0 won't do it.

[Glasgow_Saint]

Good spell....come on

[Sheaf Saint]

And again given away so so cheaply by Jose

[trousers]

Corner Fulham

[Thedelldays]

Puncheon been good again

[trousers]

4 mins added time

[Glasgow_Saint]

Good save Gazza

[Ohio Saint]

I'm liking gazza

[JoeShmoe]

Hooveldt is a liability

[Glasgow_Saint]

Jos ffs

[JoeShmoe]

If we can't beat this Fulham team there's no hope as they are woeful

[trousers]

Half time

[Mr_Red]

Don't like the amount of possession we are allowing them but they aren't very effective when they have it so I guess it isn't the end of the world. Spiderman really is a talent, forwards all doing pretty well, fox ok but the reset of defence a little shaky.

[Ohio Saint]

Ref's HT whistle is MOM!

[DT]

Giving them way too much space and possession as usual. Look dodgy at back as usual.

[trousers]

"Should be an interesting Fulham locker room at half time" - Fox Soccer TV

[JoeShmoe]

Wish we had a bit more width up front, Mayuka for JRod after 60 for me

[Aura]

Agree fulham look bat average we should be 2-0 at halftime though had plenty of chances to go up another.

[Saint-Armstrong]

Can't get Solent??

[farawaysaint]

J Rod has been everywhere, why sub him? 2nd half is where it gets interesting, can old Jol outfox Adkins? I bloody hope not.

[Thedelldays]

Watching in pub... Atmosphere sounds shocking

[Cheese on Toast]

fox ok but the reset of defence a little shaky.

 

Words I never thought I'de see

[Saint-Armstrong]

Tell them to put the volume on/up.

[supersonic]

Rule number 1 of defending: don't let the ball bounce

[Nexstar]

Fulham will improve (you would think) second half and we might rue those missed chances. Need to be more confident at the back, but doing very well considering the injuries.

[Dibden Purlieu Saint]

Puncheon is very dangerous isn't he?

[farawaysaint]

Puncheon is very dangerous isn't he?

 

I certainly wouldn't want to eet him down a dark alley Seriously though, he's impressed me loads this year.

[Red Alert]

I think it is safe to say Yoshida doesn't see himself as a full back. In fairness to him though he hasn't been woeful. Could do with a second early doors to settle us down, though I have just had a tenner on Fulham at 9/1 on bet365 if it all goes wrong - does this make me a bad fan?

That typing error is going to cost me I fear.

[JoeShmoe]

We will need two as with Jose/Jos/Fox at the back and Maya out of position it's a matter of time before they get one

Nah, it's fine to soften the blow

Haha, I took that bet as well!

[Cheese on Toast]

We do always play better in the second half..

Could always put a tenner on "Julien Rodriguez" to score next. Can't see it myself though

So far, our championship side has had better penetration than their championship side. Lucky this ain't the Prem!!

haha wtf

[Cheese on Toast]

Looks like Ramírez isn't going to be getting into the team

[Foxy]

We've looked pretty comfortable so far and probably should have gone in two up. I hope we don't live to regret punchy's silly flick at Schwartzer that stopped us being further ahead
