Yeah bit strange, should have got rid of him at christmas or at the end of the season. No one will be able to keep them up with only a few games remaining.
posted by Sam Irish (Guest) - Monday 15th March 2010, 2:48 PM i though pearson would sack him as soon as he came in but its almost as if every time he was preparing to do so Brown would pull a result out of the bag. It has to be said that he did a good job at Hull, odious though he is. Cant see them getting anyone good to replace him but surely they must have someone line dup else why get rid of him. Only person i can think of off hand is Megson.
posted by fortressfulham (Guest) - Monday 15th March 2010, 3:16 PM Good riddance! I can't stand the bloke. I almost hope Hull stay up now.. Er sorry, a self inflicted uppercut has been delivered and I'm ok now. I still hope they go down. :)
posted by Fred (Guest) - Monday 15th March 2010, 8:54 PM I agree Fred i dislike the bloke but still seems the wrong move for Hull. As for those being linked today:
talk of Mark Hughes seems far fetched, he can land a much bigger job than Hull - if he keep them up it wont improve his reputation that much and if they go down it might very well damage it
Terry Venables - maybe if the money was tempting, great coach but i wouldnt trust venables with my money, not that i have any at the moment :(
Ian Dowie - He'd definitly take it, he'd definitly get them relegated, and he'd definitly getted sacked some point next season for failing to get decent results in the Coca Cola. I think he might well get the job
I'd still give Megson a call if i were Hull, not a bad manager and i think he has what it takes to keep them up
If Nicky Barmby was a coach he'd be odds on to get the job, if he stays in the game after hanging up his boots he'll manage Hull in the future, ive met him a couple of times and he's got the same sort of drive as Cookie had
posted by fortressfulham (Guest) - Tuesday 16th March 2010, 1:47 PM has any one ever mension gareth southgate or alan shearer that can take the job pluss i knew phil brown will be sacked from the start of the season
posted by james williams (Guest) - Tuesday 16th March 2010, 2:26 PM i think Southgates a pretty good shout, havent seen him linked with it but has to be a better option than Dowie.
Cant see Shearer taking it, he can afford to wait for something bigger and better.
i think everyones been expecting Brown to go, surprised it diidnt happen sooner. He's never got past that episode at half time against Man City.

Its gonna be a good match i hope, im not sure if we can get the beating of them but i just hope we turn up and give them a good run. Having the 2nd leg at home is a small advantage for us.

Comon You Super Whites.

Jimmy Bullard question:

Just before you signed for Hull you were interviewed by the BBC (shown on Football Focus). You said you had a great relationship with the fans BUT refused to play for the Club because you "only" had 16 months left on your contract and the Club had not offered you a new deal.

Do you accept now that by refusing to play for the Club you wiped out that "great" relationship with the fans because we ARE the Club.
posted by HA3FAN (Guest) - Tuesday 09th March 2010, 10:49 AM Has your dream move to a ambitous club been worth a) missing out on european football b) a chance to play against a team which is a legend of european club football [juventus] c) a top ten finish d) the chance to get an England cap.
If you had to trade your ridiculous contract at Hull for anyone of these which would it be?
Do you think Fulham are a far better team without you and that Hodgson was absolutly refuse the contract you wanted given our subsequent results and the injuries you've subsequently suffered.

posted by fortressfulham - Tuesday 09th March 2010, 11:24 AM how many more premiership games do you think you will play in your career given that Hull are almost probably going to get relegated and if they dont you'll almost certainly get another injury? My estimate is 7

Would be quite interesting to know how he feels when he sees scott parkers name on the opposing team sheet. Im going to the Hull away game so might try and get a scott parker chant going, that is if bullard isnt injured again

Yes - and I agree. I don't think there was any intention to cause damage, but it was reckless. Career ending? Not sure, he is young, and players have recovered from this type of injury before, so got to say he might be back.
posted by Fulhamweb - Sunday 28th February 2010, 12:46 PM I know players have back recently from some horrible injuries, eduardo being one, but when i saw his half his leg and foot hanging limp from the rest of his leg i though that was it for him, at best i think he'll come back but will always have limitations in some form or other as a result. Poor guy.

By the way fulhamweb i think the change to the forum so that you can see the previous posts as you reply is a nice improvement. Cheers for your hardwork. Do you have any plans for more blogs? Perhaps one for the Juventus and Spurs quarterfinals? i always enjoyed reading them
posted by WeWonItOnce (Guest) - Sunday 28th February 2010, 2:58 PM Yeah, again I agree - I think he will always now be limited.

And thanks for your comments about the forum. We do our best to fit in as much as possible, but at times it is hard with "real" work commitments! :)

I will also make sure that I kick our blog writer into action ..
posted by Fulhamweb - Sunday 28th February 2010, 3:03 PM Apparently Ramseys fracture isnt as bad as Eduardo's was. Strange how many of these injuries Arsenal seem to get. As a wales fan hope ramsey comes back strong. I dont think Shawcross went in with intent but i for one hate the football Stoke play, they can play decent football, as seen against us at the Brittania, but often choose just to play ugly. I can understand teams with limited ability kicking teams to try and stay in the game but its a different story with Stoke. Be nice if they beat Chelski in the cup though
posted by Eric Miller (Guest) - Monday 01st March 2010, 1:21 PM Its not as bad as was first feared but it when i first saw it i doubted whether he'd come back from it.

Best time ever to be a Fulham fan? its got to be up there. 96 was bad, i remember Torquay the only team below us beating us, but i think 87 was worse, Fulham Park Rangers f*$k off. Long way to come in such a short space of time and our recent success will hopefully mean a bigger fan base upon which we can build in the future.

I was puckering a couple of times when costa had the ball, really annoyed me though when itv4s commentary were saying what a great scouting system Donetesk have, they bought him for £6mil from gremio, basically they just know the brazilain league well its not like they plucked some young brazialian off the beach. And itv once again were incredubly patronising about fulham, at one point they said we were hanging on in the tie when in fact we were winning 3-1 at that point, not a comftable 3-1 but not 'hanging on' either. Definitly has been a great month, be nice if the lads who were slagging off the team could comment on this result, maybe even accept things are going well? bet they dont though
posted by WeWonItOnce (Guest) - Friday 26th February 2010, 2:33 PM itv are always rubbish but they did seem to adopt a particuarly condescending attitude for most of the game, nice to see Voltzy mind

posted by Fulhamweb - Friday 26th February 2010, 5:18 PM yea its the same on every channel, hansen on last weeks MotD really annoyed me, but itv are are possibly the worst. Imagine what they'll be like during the Spurs game, no doubt they'll talk of 'plucky little fulham' fawn over Spurs and give Defoe a verbal bj. Never changes

i remember peschisolido scored a great goal for us against liverpool at Anfield, think it was the league cup game which finished 3-1
Sean Davis scoring against Blackburn for us to get into the premiership was pretty good as well
Also both Jon Harley and ou rother left back, Wome?, scored goals from something like 35 yards out in the same season. Both were pretty impressive
posted by fortressfulham (Guest) - Tuesday 23rd February 2010, 12:44 PM I remember that Peschy goal - I was at uni watching in the student union bar and went mad!

One goal that sticks out for me - although i cant remember who scored and who it against! - was a goal by Mark Kelly (?) against Mansfield (?). There was a fulham corner that got headed clear and he struck the ball on the full volley! Screamer!


posted by James (Guest) - Tuesday 23rd February 2010, 1:45 PM I remember Steve Hayward scored direct from a corner for us, not sure it was the best fulham goal ive ever seen but i distinctly recall having just said to my mates "another rubbish hayward corner on the way" i swear we had twenty corners in one match once and hayward took them all and they were all slow and high and predictable and we didnt look like scoring one of them. Still annoys me thinking of hayward

that peschi goal at liverpool was a cracker we didnt deserve to lose to them
posted by WeWonItOnce (Guest) - Tuesday 23rd February 2010, 6:43 PM Steve Hayward, thats a player i havent thought about in a while. It was amazing how he could be sorrounded by players sprinting forward to counterattack and yet still find away to slow play down and pass it sidewards.

I remember Facundo Sava scored one hell of a goal for us when we were at loftus road. I was out of my minature plastic seat faster than you can say QPR are scum

cant remember that goal at all James, mind you i can only just remember Mark Kelly, played for us in the early 90s right? Whatever happened to him?
posted by fortressfulham - Wednesday 24th February 2010, 9:42 AM Anyone else have a vidoe called Best and Marsh,theres a clip on it from when we beat hereford 4-1, marsh's goal for the fourth was seer quality, found it on you tube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dz2l-xUQmc0
posted by MickyA (Guest) - Wednesday 24th February 2010, 12:50 PM Inamoto scored rather a tasty shot from outside of the box. I'd forgotten about Peschisolido's goal against Liverpool, it was rather impressive. I'm sure Mullery scored a fantastic goal for us from twenty-five yards out. Im sure it was a cup game during his second spell with us, i cant recall seeing many better goals, certainly not live
posted by Eric Miller (Guest) - Wednesday 24th February 2010, 2:42 PM Mullery scored against leicester in 1974, it was goal of the season. Sadly i had not been born and wasnt able to see it, gutted!

it was a great victory for us, although if Shaktar played the second half in the manner they ended the first i think we would have lost. They had an impressive team and i dont doubt the second leg will be very tough but im delighted with the result. Also think it's worth mentioning that Kelly did well at leftback given how poorly he's played their before
posted by fortressfulham (Guest) - Friday 19th February 2010, 1:38 PM great game, we've given ourselves a real chance to progress despite the away goal, which was very good. think your right to say kelly did well, a couple of mistakes but as i was very worried when i heard he was starting at LB i was really happy at how he played. if i'd been the shaktar boss id have told my team to pressurise him as much as possible
posted by MickyA (Guest) - Friday 19th February 2010, 3:37 PM Its a brilliant result considering that when they were passing the ball well they were probably as good as any team ive ever seen. I think we have to take credit for not letting them play like that in the second half, we closed them down alot higher up the pitch, particuarly Gera, and i think Murphy made some good challenges in the centre which helped us. COYW

posted by MickyA (Guest) - Thursday 18th February 2010, 1:02 PM I think we have a chance even though they're a very good team but as long as we play well and can still hold our heads high after this round, win or lose, ill have no complaints. Would love to see us face Ajax or Juventus though. im staying positive and hoping we might get a good result: 1-0 to us
posted by fortressfulham (Guest) - Thursday 18th February 2010, 2:06 PM cant see us winning the results of the previous games are hiding poor performances, be lucky to get a 0-0. Would love to see us progress to play Ajax, couldnt afford to go to Italy again but could make Holland, but have to admit i think itll be beyond us. Never know though the boys might come out and play a blinder. Does anyone know if Shoreys cuptied? I was sure he was but have seen him listed in a provisional squad on the BBC website
posted by Eric Miller (Guest) - Thursday 18th February 2010, 3:53 PM I doubt he will cup tied as Nottingham Forrest weren't in the Europa league this season! More a question of if he has been registered to play or not i think.

agree with most of what you say mate. Personally im not that fussed about kamara going, he never did look good enough, and hodgson was at the time reasonably sure about AJ returning.
mcleish has done a good job but he was helped by Birmingham's morale being revitalised by a new chairman with lots of money arriving. I still think well finish above them by the close of the season another top ten season would be a considerable success given how teams we finished above last season have invested

But to be compeating in Europe like we are, still in the FA cup with a good chance of getting to a semi final AND to be making the beating of Man Utd and Liverpool look easy...
