All the floodlights are out and Gentleman Jim says "Someone has to go and stick a few quid in the meter."

Rumors going around that Robin Van Persie has been kidnapped by Arsene Wenger and swapped with a look a like.

Right, what did I miss. Been playing at a handball tournament all day and just got back as the floodlights came back on. Now in front of the TV with some chicken in the oven

They've hit the woodwork 3 times and us once. We're giving us good as we get... almost.  Still in this and could get something out of the game.
Riether has been brilliant. Schwarzer pulled off some good saves. Dejagah isn't sharp enough and has lost the ball a few times.

Oh, the floodlights went off for about 5 minutes just before halftime and the players went and had a cup of tea.

Have I missed anything?

Hangeland substituted an halftime for Aaron Hughes.  He must be injured.

That's his problem. Even when he plays well he has an error in him. But yeah, until then he'd been as good as anyone.

Really pleas sing team performance though.

aagree last two games played well, shame senderos has cost us a point (as it seems with injury time to go)

Not sure we can complain tonight. We are looking more like a side at last. Bad luck lads and well done for the effort.

We deserved something from that game. Well played lads.

So unlucky to lose that, deserved a lot more. Hit the woodwork and two headers off the line. Senderos had a great game, can't be blamed for the loss, he nearly got us back on level terms with that header at the death.

Very encouraging performance and a lot to take from it despite the defeat.

One individual error cost us the game, but other than that a very decent performance. Play like that next week against Norwich and we'll be fine.

Hugo impressed me today, Baird looked himself again and Urby showed some very good signs of the bench. Becoming worried about Ruiz again though, he's showing great touches but every now and then he tries to beat someone in the wrong area of the pitch or gives it away too cheaply. One day he'll cost us 3 points doing that.

Performance much improved the last two games.  Urby looks useful too.

Since the only perfect football match ends 0-0, I think it's a little unfair to hang this defeat on Senderos. He was not the onl player on either side to make a mistake today. He's just the only one who's mistake resulted in a goal. I'd also like to point out that if the two players involved in making the goal aren't named van Persie and Rooney, it might not have been a goal at all. Gotta give credit when it's due.

I thought we put in a performance worth the kit and the badge. I was very proud of Fulham's performance today. I'm not making an exception for Senderos.
