The away match at the start of the season was a real low point and sadly a sign of things to come. Sad to say it but theres no way I'd put money on us to beat Fulham. :(

I am going to the match and I am expecting nothing but a confident win. As long as we keep Eboue chained to the bench, we should win :lol: Seriously though we haven't been able to score in a 3 games now and Fulham have a great defence but Fulham have only scored 3 goals away from home this season so at least we won't be conceding :oops:

Ful of dread

You will see exactly the same as you did at the Wigan, Portsmouth, Bolton, West Ham and Sunderland games. 16 away goals in total in 13 away games means that Fulham turn up for their away games in the extra large double decker bus.

There are plenty of people mouthing off on this forum about how Arsenal are rubbish but at least they try to provide entertainment home and away. The teams above all stuck 10 and 11 men behind the ball with no intention of trying to score. The only teams that have actually tried to come and play have been United, Hull and Villa.

The Sunderland guys obviously forgot their lines for about 10 minutes in the first half, but a quick word from the touchline soon settled things and they successfully saw through the last hour without a sniff of an attempt on goal.

It's boring shite and it all gets wrapped up in phrases like 'commitment', resolve' 'frustrating the opposition', 'determination'. The serial offenders are Bruce, Southgate, Moyes and Benitez.

I haven't worked out yet why I consistently fork out to watch this garbage. If I was a fan of any of the above teams I think I'd have committed suicide by now. How much longer before fans start to walk away from the over-hyped 'product' or 'commodity' (as I heard it described on 5 live today) that's currently on offer ? Seems to me that the product is now little to do with the football that's actually played.

Still, as long as the Japanese think this footee thing is wonderful and stump up large amounts to watch it on TV, Scudamore couldn't give a toss.

Every chance this could end 0-0 or worse, in murphy and dacourt fulham have 2 midfielders with too much guile and experience for song and denilson, harewood whilst useless has given kolo and gallas what for in the past, this will not be straight forward 3 points.

1-1, we'll finally score but f**k it up somehow.

On the plus side, I will be drunk....
