Our support v Fulham

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

It's a shame some of you guys can't take some praise from the supporters on here that can't get tickets for (or can't afford) the away games.

I too thought that the Arsenal fans outsang the Fulham supporters and kept going throughput the game. Maybe it was the position of the the microphones, the large contingent, or the fact the were largered up.

Whichever way it sounded great so please accept the praise graiciously and stop whinging about the home support.

I was there. In the "neutral" (ha! :barscarf: ) section.

Our lot were nice and noisy.

The Fulham lot were quite noisy, too. Singing on three sides of the ground.

Bloody good day out. :barscarf: :barscarf: :barscarf:

I'm a travel club member and have been for the last 7 seasons. I haven't been to a home game for about the same amount of time for reasons that have already been stated. This is also the case for everyone i attend aways with.

Was in the "neutral" section too OG, think there was at least two Fulham fans in front of me so I guess that's why they call it "neutral" :roll: Was indeed a good day out in the sunshine down by the river :wink: Was in the Kings Arms before the game, standing not too far away from that dodgy hog roast thing, bet they don't sell too many of them when they're playing our beloved :wink: north london neighbours :lol: :lol: :lol:

Yeh. They switch to saltbeef sarnies on those days. :lol:

I got my ticket through a Fulham ST holder. I had my beers in the Golden Lion, which is a Fulham-only pub. I missed out on the Gooner sing-songs. :( and obviously didn't see any Gooner faces :( ).

On the upside, there are some Fulham lassies who are really, really top tottie. The sun was shining. And skimpy clothing was the order of the day. :D :D :D

I also missed RVP's goal, because the Fulham catering is even worse than the Grove. :evil:

i was in that corner, when we first sang the 5 foot 4 song they all started laughing and they did seem to be watching us more then the game.

It was a fantastic day out, kings arms pub was good, full of gooners singing loud and proud!

It was my first time at fulham, and i must say, the walk to the ground from the pub is shit! especially in the drunken state i was in but nevertheless, got there and had a fucking blinder! :lol: :barscarf:

do not despair I was at the game and the fans were singing "We've only got one Song" and I heard it and sang the chant three times, biggest disappointment was Diaby, gave away silly free-kicks, was ball watching, how he started ahead of Tomas I don't know, he for me was the weak link yesterday, totally out of p[lace, but these were the games we were losing last season, we played ugly and got a result. job done
