AP is back to white, he will score... ::tongue::
COYW
Muniz was fouled
Bobby!!
BOBBY!
BDR, get in!!
YEEEES
As I said I wouldn't have started BDR
Get in! Good work fron Muniz in the build-up,even if his cross was poor.
BDR ::thumb:: ::thumb:: ::scarf:: ::scarf:: ::wine::
Nice steal by Ream to start it.
just as bdr is about to pull the trigger - stream froze. then 10 seconds later he getting congratulated.
Great interception by Ream to start the play
is that an assist for the groundsman

You are not alone... ::wink::
So close!
BDR always proves the moaners wrong. One of the best finishers in the team.
keep it up boys.
tc looking good playing ap and willian in
The US commentator just said our last home league win over the Cherries was in 1992. Can that be right?

yes
2-0
mad
TC right on the button.
Boscombe are a physical side
Almost 2
Yes TC pulling the strings early on.
Gonna be 10 minutes of stoppage time at this rate
15 minutes of extra time...
see silva giving tc a right earful?
Castagne is not having a great game
They are gradually getting back into this game. We need a second

Sounds like they should have equalised at the very least.
Have we had a shot on goal since 15:10?
Yessss
muniz!!
YEEES
Hopefully 3 points now. ::scarf:: ::wine::
Muniz
Love to see it from Muniz

Remember Burnley Dave!
errrrrrr yes
I said it many times, I had a feeling once Muniz scores one and gets his confidence back, he'll score more.

Remember Burnley Dave!
Unfortunately yes, but today we are going to win!
Broja rolling his eyes as we speak, we need a goal scorer they said, youre guaranteed to start they said, our strikers cant score they said
:slap:
Burnley and Luton losing

Let's wait and see. Not so long ago we thought Jimenez was on a roll and then he hit the buffers again. I'm pleased for Muniz but am not getting carried away just yet.
Incidentally that's a goal and an assist for BDR already. And several of us wouldn't have started him. Shows how much we know!

I'm not getting carried away yet either, but seems like he got his confidence back at least.
I just thought criticism he recieved was way over the top. It was clear that he lacked confidence, but his energy and hold-up play has been excellent all season.
Muniz is a new man
They have had more shots and chances than us. Still see us losing this. Forever Fulham.
why does it always turn into defense by "Keystone Cops"???
Hopefully we do not let Bournemouth back into the game as they seem to have more possession lately and have had a number of missed shots.
Robinson nearly scored
Burnley equalized
2-0, that sounds familiar...
Blimey that was a long 1st half.
Robinson once again crosses into the area but even before half time Fulham look unable to support the attack with nobody up with him.
Muniz has been excellent so far, looks a totally different player than earlier in the season. Willian, Cairney and Robinson triangle working as well as ever. Ream defending well.
Bournemouth look a good side and Alex Scott a real gem.
Muniz about to cost us £4m
And I'm here for it.
I would just love for him to go on an absolute run and emerge as the talent he looked like he could be years ago in Brazil. It's all still a bit raw and unrefined but confidence is growing and his positioning and gambling on getting into those spots in front of goal anticipating the cross has been much better today.
Rooting for him. Much as Broja being a saviour would be good...better would be one we own stepping up to the plate. Fingers crossed
Great performance so far, but same could have been said in our previous game. Hopefully we have learned something from that and we get three points.
Leno and Robinson excellent, midfield dominant, Willian and BDR are combining well with Cariney and Robinson, and Andreas respectively. Muniz good hold up play all game.
First goal Ream, Muniz and BDR all done well, second goal real poachers finish from Muniz.
Hipefully Adama, Wilson and Broja to come on later on in the second half. Maybe Reed and/or Lukic as well.

To be fair before he got injured he was just starting to show glimmers of this, which is why he was crying when he got that injury. You could see it's been a journey trying to establish himself here, but we all began praising him and saying he should potentially start over Raul and Vinni for a couple of games. But then got hurt and had to sit out for a bit. Now Vinni goes but Broja brought in and maybe, just maybe, this is his moment. Would be a great story for the lad
Well done Fulham but the job is only half done.
Lets keep playing football rather than think we can take our foot of the pedal and sit on a 2 goal lead.
We need that decisive third goal.
Muniz is looking really lively today. Classic poacher's goal. Some nice hold up play later in the half as well. He's really putting himself about.
BDR (I'll put my hand up and say I'm not his biggest fan) is putting in a really good shift. Liking his movement today.
Some of the interchanges down the left with Willian, TC & Robinson have been electric. Willian is feeling it, looking like his vintage self. Probably should've made it 2-0 early days but that hasn't affected him, he's shining brightly.
On the negative side, we've looked a little bit suspect against their counterpressing in the latter stages of that half - particularly Diop & Timmy Chestnuts who've both had a couple of questionable moments.
Some of their triangles in possession are causing some issues. Looking to me like sometimes Bobby is getting sucked a bit narrow defensively and Sinisterra & Kelly have caused some issues down that side.
Game is far from over. Really have to make sure we see this out. COYW ::scarf:: ::scarf::
They can't contain Muniz....I like that we can now also go long.... can't fault anybody.... look's like Stuart Gray has been working overtime.....great half
Anyone have a clue what their manager and his staff were moaning to the ref about walking off at half time? If anything I thought he was poor against us not for us.

There were a couple of decisions about 15-20 minutes in that went our way that Iraola seemed to be quite upset at.
Think the ref has been fairly inconsistent both ways. Definitely missed a couple for us but in fairness 1-2 for them as well.

Cheers, he definitely seems unsure about himself.
They have made a sub at half time. What's the betting it will be important for them. We have not lost in the last five games when being ahead at half time. It is all pointing to the obvious.

That has jinxed us Lighthouse!!
Damn
not long for that
Here we go!!! Lighthouse looks like you are 1/2way to being right, but come on VAR

Why feel the need to say these things?
Ffs
Beautiful!
nice response
yeeeees
All rise!
Muniz has arrived!!!
anything you can do.....
Muniz again
willian on the button
Muniz, well done, really pleased for you and us
Oh dear, not allowed to own a dog at Fulham, cant hold on to a lead. wait a minute, tv just said 3-1, could be our day.
Go Roderigo go, gee whiz it's Muniz!!!!
Keep them out Fulham.
It's all happening. Willian and TC combine so very, very well.
Great far post run by BDR to take two defenders with him on the goal.
I would love Muniz to get a hat trick
Muniz!
Broja might have to wait a bit longer for a starting place ::wink::
keep it coming
We need a 4th to finish this off
We have had so many poor clearances. Makes us have to work so much harder.
why do I hear circus music on their corners? ::tongue::
Has Marco heard our complaints about late subs and is actually making 60th minute subs?
tc off? didnt see that coming
What an unnecessary foul by Reed. Why gift them a free kick in that situation?
Quote from: TC's Sporran on February 10, 2024, 04:27:40 PMtc off? didnt see that coming
Probably just wants to be more defensive in the midfield with a 2 goal lead.
BBC states BM have had 17 shots!
Quote from: TC's Sporran on February 10, 2024, 04:27:40 PMtc off? didnt see that coming
We've been kind of overrun in the middle, so can see the thinking.
Luke Harris just scored for Exeter.
Quote from: TC's Sporran on February 10, 2024, 04:27:40 PMtc off? didnt see that coming
TC seemed to be holding his face/nose a little on on the way off. After that first half hit to the face it may be that they were just being a little cautious of concussion
Loads of substitutions.
come on Broja...
the momentum has well and truly swung in their favour.
37 corners
they nearly got their second
They have about a dozen corners. I don't think we have one
perhaps we'll get a corner soon?
Reed giving up too many needless fouls in dangerous positions
be lucky to go another 15 mins without them getting a scoring opportunity
its just going straight back to them every time
BM do seem to have their heads up this half.
I think we give Traore a run now
its like a mirror of the first half
BBC states possession is 50/50; they've had 12 corners!!
Corner
Adama??
how is our backline gonna be setup with these subs? Robinson LCB?
Adama looks understandably rusty. FBT looks lively.
Quote from: btffc on February 10, 2024, 04:50:33 PMAdama looks understandably rusty. FBT looks lively.
Think FBT has been unlucky not to get more game time. I like the look of him a lot.
Willian had a great game.

Agreed. Robinson has been great so hard to drop him. Really hope we get FBT on a permanent in the Summer for cheap.
How much extra time
7 mins
I have no idea why the added time seem to follow different rules every other game? Beginning off season we saw this all the time with the new directives. Then as the season has gone, it feels like many refs have gone back to the arbitrary 3-4 mins... but not today.
under pressure but doing OK - they've had 25 shots but only 5 on target.
A good win today
Big win
i'll take that.
Good win.
showed great resilience against a tough Bournemouth side.
COYW!
Good 3 points there ::scarf:: ::scarf::
Phew - the only way is up!!
Great win against a good attacking team. We showed good organisation and concentration over the last 20 minutes.
Not sure why there was any doubt. I for one was always confident. May need to up my drug and alcohol intake. But William sounded as if he was MOM. But such an important result against an in form side who really had plenty of chances themselves.
What a relief and great for Muniz.
Phew, thy were certainly in the match having won 13 corners.
Well done Fulham , we needed that win, we now have 28 points , only 12 more for safty.
