Fulham vs Newcastle United 9/11/08 Pre-match thread


Recommended Posts

Fulham are good but bar the likes of Bullard Zamora and Johnson on occasion where is their class in attack?

ask a fulham fan, and theyll say bullard has been underperforming recently. johnson though got 2 goals in his last game, and is in good form. on reflection, its their general attacking momentum which is quite good, although they will probably struggle to stick it in the back of the net, whereas their defence is terrible, which we can exploit.

I'm gonna try and get to the game tomorrow but what block do I need to be in to be with the Newcastle fans?  Anyone know?

 

There's blocks P1 to P7 in the neutral/away end but I'd rather been with the toon fans than the neutrals.

It would be nice to have a Saturday game where a win could put us 8th and then other results seeing us go back to 12th or wherever, instead of dropping to 16/17th and having the added pressure of having to win to move back up.

Its amazing how in two weeks we can move from being last to 8th!

Yeh but that freekick last week was inches off.

About as close as Nicky Butt's, but doesn't mean to say we'll be relying on him for our attacking prowess.

We're hitting form while some other teams around us are hitting the wall. We must take advantage.

 

Yep, it's essential. This is the time to stand up and actually prove that we are better than the dross that's around us down here. We've got a far superior team and we seriously need to prove that to ourselves and to everyone else. A win takes us up to 9th, with another extremely winnable game against Wigan to come, whereas a draw does virtually nothing to the situation. Must win. IT's absolutely imperative.

They've scored fewer goals than any other team, but only Chelsea and Liverpool have conceded less.  Their results suggest it's scoring goals that's the problem, not keeping them out.
