A lot of parallels to when we played Boro back in 2015:
- Boro needed to win for any chance of autos, and threw the kitchen sink at us (to their demise)
- Fulham were very good from an attacking point of view, atrocious at defending (Hull maybe not as bad).
- It was the last home game of season for us, and we really wanted to put in a solid performance to leave the fans with a good memory before the summer, despite having nothing to play for
Hopefully we see something along the same lines on Saturday!

Will be interesting what happens at the bottom on saturday
Reading and birmingham currently both 5 pts clear of the relegation zone with 2 games left
Depending on how things go,
- either,
- neither, or
- both
of them could be safe going into the final games
obviously best case scenario is birmingham safe and reading in danger, worst case scenario is vice versa
Sometimes it's better to play teams under pressure rather than teams without due to either they are safe or already relegated. Sunderland game will show tomorrow.

Yes, although Brum have scored 34 goals this season - we ended up with 62 that season.
From a Lifelong Hull City fan, anything could happen Saturday. We could win by 5 and just as easily lose by 5. From a personal point of view I'd much prefer Fulham to go up. You play some nice stuff, and Cardiff are dreadful to watch. Amazing how such a bang average team can be in 2nd place. Would love to put a spanner in the works for the despicable Warnock. I do think it will hinge on this game, I see you winning both of your games and Cardiff winning their last game, should be a nail biter
On that basis, put an adjustable spanner in their works, and can you please win by 5 goals ⚽️⚽️⚽️⚽️⚽️ on this occasion, many thanks.

Cheers Mats and Good Luck in your remaining games this season and next.
