posted by Jb (Guest) - Monday 23rd April 2018, 9:35 PM Sometimes life doesn't go how you want. If we'd invested in Mitro and Targett in September, we'd be coasting into the Prem. If Cairney had been healthy, if Slav had made Sess a full time midfielder, etc. But that didn't happen, we are where we are. Which is unbeaten in 20+ matches. If Derby were to win or draw, we can keep fantasizing about automatically going up, but that might only lead to disappointment. Better to steel ourselves for a 3-match fight, and if a miracle happens, great.
posted by Drago (Guest) - Monday 23rd April 2018, 10:19 PM I really don’t understand why people are so afraid of hope. We all know it’s going to be a big ask but while there is any chance no matter how slim I cannot for the life of me get my head around people throwing in the towel. Whatever we think will not make the slightest difference and those who have already given up will feel equally gutted if we don’t make second spot. If somebody can explain to me the benefit of refusing to be optimistic I am all ears.

Know what you mean Bruv, there is no reason to think we can't beat any side in the play offs, and whoever it is wont fancy playing us - at our best as in second half against Millwall it will be fine.
posted by Harry (Guest) - Monday 23rd April 2018, 10:57 AM

Derby owe it to themselves first of all, and with some hard work and effort, can force themselves back into a playoff spot. I would play that pacy guy Palmer from Chelsea from the start. Rowett gives too much respect to his first 11 which is all fine and dandy. If plan A isn't working, he needs to come up with a plan 'B'. At this stage of the season, there are tired legs on both sides. Why not inject some pace in from the start? We can do no more than win our last 2 games, and it is up to Cardiff who have 1 foot into the prem. It depends on how much you want it now, and Derby players seem like they are giving up. That guy Keog who was dropped is a bit calamity, but he tries 100% and maybe he should play against Cardiff, nuff said!
posted by OWEN (Guest) - Sunday 22nd April 2018, 7:00 PM Problem is we changed system yesterday did not help much Palmer is injured and only good a half hour currently.He has loads of ability is still naive in certain situations but I would not be surprised if Rowett throws him in from the start.As for Keogh and I am no great fan he is not as bad as other teams think it is just the way he looks that does not help him.But his mistakes are always big one's take a look at boro's second goal and how Keogh leaves his man ..terrible.Thing in your favour is this could be thanks to Colin spouting off the game they desperately want too win.

Radio report yesterday said that Notts Forrest were the better side, and should have won the game by at least a goal. The trouble is that Cardiff are playing crap matches, but they are still managing to win. If, as now seems possible, they get promoted and we don't, it will be a real football travesty.
posted by A C (Guest) - Sunday 22nd April 2018, 3:01 PM Not quite, as we're (and Cardiff) guaranteed a play-off spot at worst. While it would be great to gain automatic promotion, I'm looking forward to a Wembley final (should we beat 6th place). And that means it's in our own hands.
posted by stephen terry (Guest) - Monday 23rd April 2018, 3:41 AM

Obviously Cardiff have that 2nd place in the bag, which leaves us in 3rd, then Villa, Boro, and (our biggest fear) Brentford in 6th. Think the final will probably be Villa vs Brentford, with Villa taking the last promotion place
posted by Zippy (Guest) - Sunday 22nd April 2018, 10:48 AM The fat lady isn't even warming up yet Zippy, so it's un-wise to predict anything - this season still has twists left mark my words. All we can do is win our last two and pray those sheep shaggers slip up, as the saying goes..." Many a slip, twixt cup and lip" (Some will have have to google this lolz).
posted by marbella white (Guest) - Sunday 22nd April 2018, 11:56 AM Also don't forget Cardiff have to play Derby away on Tuesday night, so, they're gonna be tired after a Saturday evening game and more importantly Derby will be desperate to get into play off places and will give it their all. Prediction: 2-1 Derby. So, Cardiff remain on 86 points. As for Hull, Cardiff will have to play again only 4 days later and it's another away game with a long tiring journey of 4 hours, so assuming they travel up the day before they will still be tired. Prediction: 1-1 draw. and 1 point gained. Total: 87 points. Fulham play on Friday against relegated Blunderland after a near full week of rest, and with the best will in the world I can't see any result other than a thumping. Prediction: 2 or 3 Nil- Fulham 88 points and we go second. So on to final game. Cardiff play Reading at home and fair do's I'll give them a home win. Final points tally - 90. Fulham play scum Brum and I truly believe we have the calss and motivation to beat them, so 3 points. FFC final tally 91 points. result we go up. Another potential outcome is if both teams draw Fulham and therefore 1 point to each team we would go up on goal difference. One word : logic. Of course we we can still do it we have to believe and so must the lads. Taxi for beach.
posted by marbella white (Guest) - Sunday 22nd April 2018, 1:27 PM Of course we can still do it. Some might think unlikely.....but the stats say we CAN still do it, no matter how improbable. You’re either an optimist or a pessimist, it’s that simple. As I have been clearly saying, in the face of the gloom and doomers....we will finish second. I would point out when I first said we would, we were maybe 10/12 points adrift. Living in hope is not a crime, it’s what comes naturally to a committed supporter.
posted by Mortlake (Guest) - Sunday 22nd April 2018, 1:51 PM Cant complain . 3 months ago I would never believe we would be where we are. All we need now is a lucky streak.Fortune favours the Rightous .Thats us.
posted by HARRY LONGBALL (Guest) - Sunday 22nd April 2018, 2:00 PM If someone had said to me back in December after we got beaten by Sunderland that we have a run like we have had and that we would be in the position we are in right now I'd have taken it - end of. Another thought, even if we don't get auto spot and we get beaten in the plays offs then simply I'd say we don't deserve a place at the top table. I just cannot see that happening though as we have a superb squad which is a class above last season and I can guarantee you that any of the teams that would have to face us in the p.o's would be sh*tting more than just bricks I can tell you.
posted by marbella white (Guest) - Sunday 22nd April 2018, 2:18 PM Predictions are of no relevance until after Tuesday's Derby v Cardiff match.

posted by marbella white (Guest) - Saturday 21st April 2018, 11:32 PM It's like the donkey being tempted by the carrot, we go forward one step, and then back two, it's getting very frustrating. The radio report says that Cardiff were terrible and full of nerves, and that they were very lucky to win this one. The trouble now is that Derby lost at home today, and they have gone right off of the boil, and Hull let in 5 goals against Bristol City, so neither of these sides seem good enough to hold a lucky Cardiff. Bah ! ! Play offs here we come, and another Championship season beckons.

Hull whilst letting in 5 scored 5. Derby NEED to beat Cardiff to qualify for the Play Offs. Everything still to play for.

As an American, I became a Fulham fan during the McBride era. The highlight for me was the Europa League run under Roy. I love that team, and the magic of beating Juve and other big clubs. This season has been the best since that run, hands down. Slav is our best manager since Roy. This team deserves to go up. Let's hope the football gods see it the same way.
posted by Drago (Guest) - Saturday 21st April 2018, 1:19 AM McBride - loved him. Mitro is best fwd since BM and that includes Berbatov. No surprise we have done well with a strong front man who applies pressure to the defensive line throughout the game, holds the ball well and knows where the goal is. Zamora should get a shout as he was brilliant as well, esp against Juve. Brian turned us round for the great escape with his goal against Reading. Great times and here we go again.

No hoofing ooop park,keep your head and frustrate opponents.And don't sit back on a 1-0 or even a 2-0 lead. Go for the jugular and kill the game off otherwise you WILL be bitten hard on the derriere-seen it time and time again. Last Sat felt like a loss because we had it in the bag with seconds to go. Hope to christ we don't do the same tomoz if we're in a similar situation.
posted by marbella white (Guest) - Friday 20th April 2018, 10:47 AM only if we did take the ball to the corner flag, the result could well be different. the fact is we didn't but we lacked a bit of strategy on managing the game out for the first time in a while. We weren't sure if we should keep the ball, waste time, hoof the ball, keep tight on them, park a bus, etc. We tried to do all. Look on the bright side, after the disappointment of Sunderland game, we went on a good winning run. After QPR, we went on a good winning run. So we can do it! COYW.

In the last week there’s more columns printed about Sess than even Man City winning the prem. that’s how crazy the media has become!! All pundits feel they need to make some judgement on Sess. Newspaper knows he sells paper at the moment. I think Sess is way beyond the level of Morrison or Luke shaw achieved. He’s approaching the Mbappe level. That’s crazy! I really hope we can get promoted and he stays with us. That would be the best outcome for Sessengnon and increases our profile globally. Any moves for Sess is a massive risk on his career and to be honest, I don’t sense that he is money motivated or even bother about fame! Unlike Morrison and the other chap (I can’t remember the name) who went from Man City to Sunderland. The next best thing for Sess incase we don’t go up, he is bought by a big team but loaned back to us for another season!

posted by Mike (Guest) - Thursday 19th April 2018, 7:31 AM The important thing to remember is , it is a winter break not a XMAS break so the players would not be spending xmas with the family. Being a realist players are the most valuable commodity for a club and allowing them to play on a frozen pitch with subzero temperatures may not be a good idea. The problem here is that 2 weeks in Feb might not be when the worst of the winter arrives, they could have a winter break and come back to the beast from the east the following day. As for the argument they need a rest that is silly they can get that during a international break or rotate there players and if it does come in it should not be used to jet off to play exhibition games.
posted by Tezza - Thursday 19th April 2018, 11:15 AM Your'e right Tezza it's not Christmas but they are actually considering a January break but spread over two weekends so that will not be any weekends without EPL games... go figure. The weather is bound to worse for one of those weekends so if you play in the worst weather there will be no end of moaning.. The EFL have already said they need as many weekends and weekday games as they get hold of to fit all their games in so no break for the lower divisions.

They could have easily won the game, and we mustn't come out playing that slow and ponderous again. Most likely we will be in the playoffs, and just like a Reading last season, there will be 1 team that will suss us out. What we need from Slavisa is a plan 'B'!!!! I would play another striker and go 4-4-2. We need somebody to run beyond Mitrovic, because he will be marked and kept busy. Mitro can handle himself and he knows what to do. Bring on AK47 Kamara from the start and really rip into Millwall. It is about time that we really punished somebody. We have the resources and capabilities to score more goals and that is what we need to do. Send a strong message out there Fulham are nobodies mug, and we will be a threat in the playoffs! Let's stop being nice Fulham, lets go into overdrive on friday night. Send that message out by beating Millwall. 'WE ARE FULHAM'!!!!!

Not in my opinion. There are several players better than him at left back and left wing and what is the point of taking a player that a) won’t play but b) will take the place of someone who possibly might. He has only just broken into the u21 squad for crying out loud; let him crawl before he’s expected to run....
posted by MST (Moderator) - Tuesday 17th April 2018, 2:39 PM Reminds me of when Sven took Theo Walcott to the 2006 WC instead of Defoe and then never used him.

posted by Eddie (Guest) - Monday 16th April 2018, 6:26 PM John, agreed we should be optimistic, but we are being realistic. We have been here before (play-offs) and just bottled it. There is nothing we ALL want more than our team returning to the EPL where we belong. Our current team would survive well in the EPL playing our type of football. To get promoted from the Championship is another kettle of fish. Cardiff on paper have nothing in skill per player that compares to ours. What they do have is a manager that knows what it takes to get out of this league. You can buy better and more classier players once promoted. You need more stronger, mentally and physically adapted players to achieve a top two spot. This division is the toughest to crack and unless fully equipped to do so, will remain stuck in it for years. It is very rare to play yourself out of the Championship. Sorry to sound doom and gloom, but realism is being a Fulham supporter for yonks!! We are and have always been a 'nearly' team. Nice and friendly with a lovely little stadium by the Thames. Always have and always will be.......

posted by Badger (Guest) - Monday 16th April 2018, 10:27 PM It's not that much of a dilemma, is it? We need to win both of our next matches. If we do that, and Cardiff drop some points going into their final match, then we roll with our best XI. If we're out of it, bring back Kalas, Christie, Ojo, Norwood, AK47, Fonte, Kebano, etc. for the last match of the season. As for the season, if we don't get promoted automatically, the cause is pre-December results, not post-December. We were missing TC, Sess was still playing at left back, our strikers couldn't hit the target. It's a real shame Khan didn't invest over the summer and waited till January. But let's be honest. Wolves and Cardiff have earned their positions. We have relied on a once-in-a-lifetime run to even get into the conversation. Let's be positive about our prospects in the playoffs, if it comes to that.

posted by Len (Guest) - Tuesday 17th April 2018, 3:33 PM

I don't hold too much validity in what we would have taken back in the day.

If asked after our first season in the Championship would we have taken being beaten in the play-offs in a coup0-le of years then of course we would have all said yes however, it was massively disappointing at the time and our season deserved better I felt.

It has been well documented that I never expected us to make 2nd place in any case as it has always been a massive ask so I can't be disappointed with 3rd (if we make it) or 4th. At least we will be at home in the second leg.

If you asked me pre-season however, what I thought was achievable, then I would have expected us to win the damn thing outright based upon the previous seasons form, what we had learned and the addition of new players (we had yet seen play). Who would have thought that Wolves would run away with it and Cardiff would have the season they have had back then?

I guess what I'm alluding to is, it is best, in my opinion, not to think about the past but concentrate on the present and as with all teams in this league, we have played a lot of games (particularly in the last two weeks) so it is expected that goals will not come so freely and that we might concede the odd goal late on. That will be the same for Millwall on Friday as well.

I still fancy us to get to Wembley and if we make it then it's anyone's on the day so keep supporting and keep hoping but "don't look back in anger" :0)).
posted by MST (Moderator) - Monday 16th April 2018, 12:03 PM It has been a wonderful run going up the ladder bit by bit catching all but Wolves, like everone else I am now a bit worried about the play off's but it would be a fun way to get back to the Premier League.
posted by Baz (Moderator) - Monday 16th April 2018, 12:29 PM Sorry but I would have said Wolves were a cert for promotion in September. If a championship side spends £25 million on players and gets in from loans another £40 million worth of players then I would be surprised of any other outcome. This will be investigated no doubt by the FA, a fine will be applied probably £5 million and Wolves will pay it out of the £100 million they get for being in the premiership. The shock has been Cardiff, fair play to them, I though Villa would be our biggest competition for 2nd place at the start of the season.
posted by Tezza - Monday 16th April 2018, 1:15 PM Tezza I think You've simplified it. If you look at the facts of the matter it's nothing like you write and a lot of their players cost peanuts, are loan deals or are players that were already there. Yes I expected them to do ok but not walk the league like they have from pretty much day one...
posted by MST (Moderator) - Monday 16th April 2018, 3:03 PM All I am saying is how it looks , Cant think of another Championship side who does not have the premiership parachute payments to use and can go out and buy a £15 mil player (Neves) buy a couple more and get a loan deal for Jota (£12 million) N'Diaye (£5 Million) Boly (£5 Million) That is not a Championship squad that is a premiership squad.
posted by Tezza - Monday 16th April 2018, 3:18 PM I think Millwall have been the revelation of the season, closely followed by Sheffield United, both promoted last season and both in contention for play-off places. In February I pointed out that Millwall were a fantastic bet for the play-offs at 66-1 (about 10th place in the table at the time). Now two months later they have a huge unbeaten streak (16/ 17 games?) and with a manager who has worked fantastically well with a paltry budget for players, they are the achievers in the Championship this season.

Congratulations to young boy Sessengnon! He stil isn’t old enough to buy the team a round to celebrate his award! He still isn’t to get married! Most kids that age probably haven’t even done a days work in their life - Sess played 80 or 90 professional games already!! Awesome!! HOWEVER, if we are all honest, I wonder if he will win the fulham player of the season?? For me Ream still edge it. If we get promoted both Mac and Betts are also stong candidates!! It will look silly to the outside world if wins every awards out there but the fans put him second or even third.
posted by John (Guest) - Monday 16th April 2018, 7:17 AM Brilliant, very well deserved, great contribution. I’m sure this is just the first of many, in what I hope/sure will be a long and successful career. Well done and good luck to you. Agree with John, my FFC Player of the Year has to be Tim Ream. Week in week out, even when we were struggling, in the first half of the season, he put in solid - outstanding performances, which I am certain limited the damage on many occasions. Since Christmas he’s been peerless, until a couple of dodgy moments in the last two games, but I’ll forgive him them. Just to think last season Kalas would have been first on my team sheet, not anymore. Ream has worked hard and has improved his game immeasurably. Second place bit more difficult, but I’d opt for Bettinelli followed by Mitrovic. Betts because he has brought real stability to the defence and has been a big factor in Reams new found confidence. Many other standout performances but for week in week out contributions these are my choices. I wonder where we would be in Betts and Mitrovic had played a full season, guess we’ll never know.

There is no room for errors, draws or losses within the next 3 games, we must win them. The Cardiff results, we cannot do anything about. I think that some nerves crept into our play against Brentford, and we were far too focused on the Cardiff result earlier. Fulham need to get back in the zone and concentrate on playing our football with more tempo and pace. We have plenty of pace in this Fulham attack, and i think it is about time we used more of the squad to frighten the opposition. There must be players like AK47 chomping at the bit who can come on and do a job. It is up to Janko to shuffle people around. Most likely we will be in the playoffs anyway, and we just can't afford to play that slow like against Brentford. We will get murdered if we play too slow and deliberate.

We were lucky to get a draw, our first half-performance was crap, and Brentford could have gone in at half-time 2-0 up. If we get promoted and play like that we'll get murdered, and be favourites for an immediate drop back. The best we can do now to get automatic promotion is to win our last three matches and hope Cardiff blow-up.

Do you honestly believe that every single game played by every single team will be the same? All teams will have good bad and indifferent days. Look at Man Utd yesterday; do you think they will play like that every game? Of course not but when you look at it over a season I personally believe that this Fulham team would have been good enough to hold it's own in the Premier league this season and that includes our start and our poorer games like against Brentford, QPR, Sunderland and Burton.

Look at Palace. They gave every team in the Prem a seven game head start and they are still not relegated and personally, I don't think they will be.

It looks like all three teams that were promoted last season will stay up and I'd say we were at least as good as all of them last season and probably better than at least Huddersfield this season.

Don't judge a book by the first few or last few pages but by the entire plot, writing style and ability to keep you engaged :0).

COYW!!

Will fans please stop ranting on about our players being tired. They only work seriously for about 90 minutes a week, that's if they play a full match, and the treatment that they get between games is top class, so that is not an excuse. Every other team must have tired players as well, so it must still be a level playing field. With the biggest prize of all being promotion from the Championship, surely that should spur them on anyway. COYW

I think we were already assured a play-off position before the Brentford game Bassim. Could be wrong - often am ;0)

Think they did something similar to Arsenal a few years back but better still it was Arsenal to whom they handed the trophy :0))
