I'm not really into games or periods that are season defining and regardless of results, I am really enjoying watching Fulham again however, it is quite possible (although maybe not probable) that by the time the final whistle is blown on 13th March, Fulham could be 12 points from safety.

M.S.T whilst stating the obvious ,why would you post such defeatist gutless drivel ? we all can all add up why not post we could be clear of the relegation zone when the whistle us blown on the 13th March?
That I would say is a pretty season defining

MST, what you are basically saying, is that Burnley are going to beat both Arsenal at home, and Everton away, Brighton are going to beat both Leicester at home, and Southampton away, and Newcastle are going to beat both WBA away and Villa at home, providing of course that we lose to both Liverpool, which is unlikely, and Manchester City at home, who will have a mid-week game to contend with before they play us, and this could be our chance to Fulhamish, and hold or even beat the table toppers. If all those results come to pass it will be time for me to give up watching football. In other words, it ain't going to happen. COYW

It is certainly possible. What is more galling is that Tottenham were spineless at Brighton two weeks ago but played like their lives depended on it last night. Why do we continue to have the worst London Derby record by a street mile?

Firstly I am 99.5% certain we will not be 12 points behind in a couple of games. That’s only just mathematically possible. Secondly, even if we were 12 points behind, we are down and out. We have Newcastle to play and we have a much better goal difference. It means the gap would only be 8points. 8points to make up from 8 games is not impossible. So MST you are being very pessimistic here. That’s a shame especially how we outplayed (albeit lost to a crazy rule) Spurs yesterday.

Tony R, in my opinion, why other London clubs raise their games like as you mentioned, Spurs against Brighton, although they are not a London club, where they were useless, and last night's game against us, where they sent out probably, City apart, the best forward line in the Premier League, and tried their hardest to do a Burnley over us, when they scored 4. However our wonderful defence didn't allow that so they took off Bale and Ali in frustration, trying to improve, but they didn't, and we continued to dominate. I digress, and the reason they raise their games, is it seems that everybody admires us as a club in London, by other supporters, and just jealous of our reputation. Next season, we will improve and stuff most of them for a change, once we improve our strikers.

Really funny how I write one thing and some people read something completely different.
Not once did I allude to FFC being 12 points from safety being probable! In fact I wrote it was improbable!.
Not once did I write that I thought that FFC WOULD BE 12 points from safety in three games nor did I write I believed that would be the case.
WHAT I WROTE (for those without a brain) was, that if that DID happen it would be.....and I quote "PRETTY SEASON DEFINING".
Jeez! No wonder so many people leave this board when people like you lot queue up to attack at the drop of a hat - and I get called negative....Pfft!!

MST... You just deleted my response after saying you no longer delete things last week... Absolute joke

But what was the point of your post? Seems to me you took a stand that Parker and the team, as a collective, were rubbish and that now having been proved wrong you appear to be trying to justify your inaccurate assumptions. Pity you’re not big enough to come out and say the performances improve with each game. Were you a proper supporter, rather than a self opinionated clown short on football knowledge and appreciation, you would congratulate the manager and the team for turning a desperate situation into one with a glimmer of hope, that we MIGHT just stay up. Mealy mouthed statements like I am really enjoying watching Fulham again, skate around your former poor judgement and criticism. Fess up and admit you got it wrong.

O David he’s probably about to delete mine too, not for the first time.

Probably. Doesn't tolerate anyone standing up to him. I would also suggest that a moderator (who does in fact moderate, despite saying otherwise) he should stop insulting the posters on this board. You should facilitate and encourage conversation.

After coming back online and reading your back tracking explanation on your original post,you need to get off your high horse man up and stop coming across as so arrogant and self opiniated rant over COYW

Also why bite and get wound up by that O David ? we all know he is a wind up little privk

You have lost the plot MST. I remember you once said 'The highlight of my day is coming on here to wind you up'. Seems like you only wound yourself up. Get a grip. @Baz, please delete that vile post by MST. Disgusting.

Totally agree with Realistic's post. I don't suppose the so-called "moderator" (what a joke) will allow this to appear but there was a short period when he disappeared recently and the site was full of constructive support for a team that is getting better and better, albeit very unlucky. I have supported FFC for nearly 70 years and I'm not going to change now. COYW!
