Cookie and Kit will put one over us next week.

First home win for over a year..... no bother we'll help you out.

Sunderland are rather sh1te this year, it would be Sod's law that we lose to them

SP · December 09, 2017, 08:00:46 PM

What could possibly go wrong...

I'd hope it helps there's no midweek game so we can put in a high tempo display & start taking more of the chances we create. The home crowd will get frustrated, just need to avoid gifting them soft goals.

After todays win, what a negative posting, the sort of thing I would have written 5 hours ago, you might be right though!

Fernhurst · December 09, 2017, 08:22:46 PM

Probably right..... been supporting in excess of 60 years and just feel it in my bones.

HOWEVER, some of our passing game today was sublime, so maybe they will not be able to live with us.

They drew away to wolves today so they can't be that bad

Fernhurst · December 09, 2017, 08:31:22 PM

There have been babies conceived and born since Sunderland last won at home Slaphead and Fulham are next up.

Free money, put everything you own on a home win. 093.gif

Andy S · December 09, 2017, 08:57:27 PM

They will both dream of putting one over on us right up to kick off.The the game kicks off and the dream ends

Lee Catermole red carded today, used to be a decent player but not sure what he's like now?

Woolly Mammoth · December 10, 2017, 01:38:49 AM

Coleman, Symons and Sunderland will huff and they will puff, but there is no way they can blow our house down, unless we let them.

Twig · December 10, 2017, 10:14:17 AM

We should win and I don't understand those who are saying it is a sure fire home win. Sure, this is football and there are no certainties but we should turn them over.

Woolly Mammoth · December 10, 2017, 10:46:42 AM

If we cannot turn them over in the current state they are in, then I will be extremely annoyed and disappointed.

Always was a red card waiting happen, the man just isn't right for the modern game.

They have one chance to avoid not winning a game a whole calender year at home with Cookie in charge it's written in the stars. If there is a dodgy record that a team has in place then you can put your mortgage in us obliging

Years and years of watching Fulham just prepares me to be ready for a defeat against Sunderland, Cookie and Kit next week.

MikeW · December 10, 2017, 06:57:32 PM

Being pretty much snowed in here in the depths of Gloucestershire I have watched the two derby games today.

Just One request: Please can we sign David Silva and Jordan Pickford.

Thank you

It is not so long ago that people were moaning because we dud not turn over Bolton.
Just look at what they have done since and it is largely down to confidence.
Sunderland have a new management team and achieved a creditable result yesterday.
We should beat them, but to be totally realistic if Chris Coleman is giving them a bit more belief, anything can happen and probably the biggest challenge they will have to overcome will be the attitude of their own supporters.
We have to score first.

Sorry I have really lost confidence on this one.
If we score 1st, 2nd and 3rd and there is only five minutes left I may start to believe that we are in with half a chance.

Woolly Mammoth · December 11, 2017, 01:08:05 PM

I agree that it's a worry as we never know which kind of Fulham will turn up, especially with our defence, and no forwards that can be addressed as a striker.
If we can keep a clean sheet, we only need to score one goal. Easier said than done, I know.
But surely we are in much better shape that they are. If we are to narrow the gap between us and the top 6, then these are the games we have to win. Forget Coleman and Symons. We should be able to back Jok against those 2.
Nevertheless, Jok must select his starting 11 carefully, and his squad, as this will be no picnic. But it should be an incentive for our players to perform.
