Ikon Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Apparently Fulhams average attendance last season was 17k something. IF we have like 6-7k there then it's very impressive Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Not on the fucking wing though I wouldn't be surprised if he had a stormer tbh, Anita is a good little footballer, his only real weakness is his size, but that's not going to be an issue out wide.

NUFCDoog Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 To be fair I think we're getting a bit carried away with this 7K thing and the neutral area. Looking at their games coming up against the likes of Burton Albion - the neutral area is sold out there to more or less - save for 2 sections that probably house may a couple thousand - that's not going to be full of Burton fans, I think its just a case of the neutral section being really popular with people in the area. The Burton game isnt for a few weeks either. I'd say its more likely we'll take around 5k which is still awesome obviously. Should be absolutely rocking - can't wait to get down there now. Think im going to give the Eight Bells a miss as its too packed and drink in the stadium concourse bit - its quite spacious out there and will be decent in the sun Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd imagine Burton at home wouldn't be one for the neutrals either so they won't bother opening it for that either. Can you really see 1000's of neutrals packing out that section weeks in advance for Fulham v Burton Albion? Hopefully we'll see a few Newcastle goals down that end tomorrow and the full stand going mental! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
afar Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Not going to name my preferred team as whatever Rafa puts out is fine by me. This is how I feel. I used to have strong opinions on starting elevens but I trust Rafa. Whatever he plays is fine with me. Haven't felt like this since Keegan/Sir Bobby. Just don't f***ing play Colback, man. Most of the time I would agree with that, but him favouring Cisse over Mitro last season was a mistake IMO. Over a long season I could see the logic in it, It served to give Mitro a kick up the backside, and like the Norwich game he proved to be an impactful sub, but over the short time period where we needed results, we could have done with more of the performances Mitro put in against Spuds (before he got sent off of course), than the abject displays we got from Cisse in the run in. That may have been something to do with name recognition though. Colback was much improved under Rafa, against Spuds he actually played really well. Clearly Rafa wants those two central midfielders to sit back and protect his back four he'll only change that up with a more attacking option if we are not leading. Shelvey could be a important part of the squad from that aspect, he gives Rafa an option to change things if needed. I can only ever see him as an impact sub, which is how he's been deployed at the club since Rafa has been here, eventually that's going to piss him off of course. In home games in this division Rafa may feel he can get by with just one holding midfielder in that case I could see Shelvey getting a start. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figures 1-0 Football Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Fulham have announced 20 squad numbers according to their forum. 4 of which are goalkeepers and 1 of them being a 16 year old. That's a very, very thin squad like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
