It's as good as we've got.
Any suggestions for changes (assuming Williams, Smith and Parker aren't fit)

What the realisation that picking weaker players in positions won't make us better

Parker's on the bench...
I wonder if we will see more senseless substitutions today..... :doh:

you can bet your life on Pringle being subbed, and a full back ending up in midfield

Reams injured. Thanks for the team news ben. Hope you are well. My next round of golf will be fraught with deadly snakes, spiders and crocodiles. That's three excuses before I tee off.

I was going to offer a reasoned case against your totally negative comments but frankly it would be a waste of time.
I'm not happy about a few things to do with the club and the team generally but you are taking defeatism to another level.
Maybe you should have a rest from here for a while and try and enjoy yourself.

It's important the team keeps it's shape, and the first 20 mins will be tough, as they will endeavour to get an early score.
Fulham have to stand firm, and weather the early storm, and silence the crowd. If we can get our noses in front, then who knows, goals change games. But if we are to give ourselves the best chance of obtaining a result, every single Fulham player must win his own battle.
Full concentration is needed. A portion of good fortune, and a team of Fulham men who are prepared to run through a brick wall, and come out fighting on the otherside.
Just the right tone for the 600th anniversary of Agincourt...

I got predictable kits substitutions right. You would had have to been a little bit mental to predict anything other than a comfortable win for borro. Great point for us and another step closer to safety

well if we lose to Leeds on Wednesday, we will have the same points we had at this stage last year. We wad told survival was the best we could expect back then

A point at Middlesboro is a great result

Well if we have any serious aspirations this season, this an opportunity to out an unbeaten run together.
we say it after every decent result. It never happens. Hopefully it will change, but history suggests not.

Hear, hear. Great point away from home and we know 'boro will be there or thereabouts come the end of the season.
Well played Fulham.

I stand corrected. It was 13 after 13. Still 13 from twelve is hardly an improvement considering we started with 1 from 8 last year.

And last year we won games that we should have lost .. Norwich at home for example. This year performances are much better and apart from Wolves (with 10 men) and a fortunate win against Blackburn, (who impressed me and I fully expect them to be in top 8 this year) we have probably recorded fewer points than we deserved (highly subjective view I know). For the most part, I am happy with what I am watching. I think we have the players to match any of the other Championship teams.

You're definitely from the glass half empty camp Ben - that's pretty clear......
FulhamBen; do you actually want us to lose or something?!
Your negativity and pessimism is unbelievable sometimes.

How does recognising that we are gaining less points per game this season under kit than we did last season equate to me wanting us to lose. And like I said we are two loses off equaling last season's shocking start. And the way we have been playing this season I doubt anyone truly believed in anything other than a easy borro win. Negative maybe but I prefer to look at it as realistic. We don't look top 6 and I don't think we even look top 12
