Sky Bet Championship at Craven Cottage, London
Feels like a Fulham day, nice sunny day by the river
Should be the best game in the championship this week.
GET IN YOU WHITES!!!
An interesting stat on Sky, of WBA's 12 points they have won 11 after coming from behind.
4:30AM
I need my coffee.
What's the point in purchasing FFCTV when half the games so far I have been unable to watch due to "rights restrictions".
Anyone else feel like all the cameras are really low down or am I going crazy?
Been a decent start so far
73% possession in the first ten minutes, but no real shots on goal yet.
We're shite at taking corners.
need some corner practice i think, we've had 3 and all of them have been too shallow
Oh, Cairney. Rattles the bar
2 year old got me up at 430 am and The Mighty Whites are on DAZN here in Canada! Going to be a good day! COYW
Based on GJ commentary, sounds like we're a real threat today with lady luck not helping us out when TC strikes the bar.
Morning from America. Fulham looking good going forward.
West Brom is sitting back and is kind of out of sorts moving forward. Fulham in control.
My word we are putting WBA to task today, just missing the goals!
Mistimed from Mawson ..
I still don't like how we pass the ball along the back line SO much, and often back to the goalie. Just feels so risky, just seen it twice now in a couple of minutes.
Probably adds to our possession stats, but I don't like it at all.
Good time for us to take the lead. COYW
Why do we have Cairney marking Austin at set pieces
TC having a wonderful game today it sounds like.
Only 2 games being played at the moment & I can't find our match on the radio.
The BBC summary suggests Austin has had a couple of chances?

Yes we do
Ferguson making Knockaert look like a mug. I'm sure Knockaert will come back stronger second half.
Really wish we were better at getting corners over the first man. We suck at taking them and we get lots of opportunities. Need to figure that out if we're going to be a threat.
We are kicking ass. West Brom is limping going forward. We didn't score though. It will be interesting to see if West Brom can up their game in the second half.
Great first half, we deserved a goal. You've got to score when you're on top though, can see Austin scoring.
Need a goal
Liking the look of Reid. Think if we don't score soon though, they will.
Agree with comments above.
Cav deliveries been below par from corners.
Knockaert sloppy .. 50:50 success rates in passes, shots etc.
I wonder if switching Knockers to the other side and see if he gets any more joy? Just for 10 mins?
Could do with full backs getting further forward too so Knocks/Cav have the space to drift closer inside because they're hugging the touchline and although that makes them get on the ball more it means they're less effective.
This is worrying. Smash and grab written all over it. We need that goal badly. COYW!
Seems to me Mitro is a bit tired from playing for Serbia these past weeks. He is getting frustrated faster than normal.
There it is!
Tony Knockers!
Not so worried now!
See out the next ten minutes and come again!
Fantastic goal. He knew it was on before he gave the ball to Caveliero.
beautiful goal that! lovely finish 049:gif 049:gif
Doesn't sound as though we're missing Arter too much?
Bobby Reid! unlucky not to score there!
what is the point of corners if they are useless 80% of the time? Come on lads, get a goal from a corner!
Haha "Mitrovic is getting all Mitrovic" as the Sky commentator just said. He really is a fighter and a scrapper, and you can see he really wants to get his goals.
Surely that's a penalty 7 days a week?

All day, every day. Except today of course.
Nice Paul Scholes style slide tackle from Paul Scholes look a like Harrison Reed there :) and he got away with it in a Paul Scholes way (just put your head down and gently jog away)
Harrison Reed been impressive today
sess a bit loose the last few mins giving the ball away in a dangerous area and then allowing the ball to go out of play
wbrom looking the more likely to score atm
BBC claiming WBA now have 6 strikers on the pitch?
FFS Betts
Jesus Christ.
Keep playing like this and they will score.
Typical Bettinelli
Well there we are.
Just don't really trust us this season

Worried again now!
Austin possibly punched / struck Bettineli in the chest on that goal ? I think that is what Betts was complaining about.
Even so he messed up there
Very disappointing.
Is it now time to drop Betts? I have not called for this before - but come on.
God knows what Betts was moaning to ref about he should have caught that.
It's clearly a directive from above to keep the ball at all costs.
Khan is the manager in all but title.
Just get Chris Hughton in for love sake

What on earth are you on about?
What % of goals we've conceded this year have been entirely Bettinelli's fault? 75%?

Just let this one go, comical comment.
Worrying defending.
Damn, WBA almost score the winner there
We're going to lose this. Totally lost our way since scoring
Time to give Rodak a shot - Betts has cost us.
One of our main problems is that we dont create many clear cut chances from open play. Alot of our goals are shots from long range
Harrison Reed is Sky's Man Of The Match
Disappointing! And not just Bettinelli. We cant defend well against teams that attack us in numbers.
14 corners is an awful lot not to get any decent attempts from
Sky says we totally dominated in every way for the first hour. I would say the first 70 mins, rather gutting that.
Also, after they scored we did not seem to have any kind of Plan B as in pushing up / overloading to go for the win, we just carried on playing the same way.
6-7 corners hitting the first man today. Have to.. have to work on them this week. Waste.
We can't keep needing 10 plus decent chances to score and allow the opposition to score so easily. While the possession is fine we are still moving the ball too slowly. We are under performing, imo, at present.
We're not as good as we should be. Good point in the end, though we'll have to do a lot better if we want autos. Right now I cannot see us beating WBA over two legs, and that's what it may come down to.
We're too slow at getting the ball into the box from wide. Our two wingers - good as they are - both try to cut in and shoot every time. How about some first time crosses?
Not enjoying this season. Not good enough for the top 2 & I question whether we can make the playoffs
Too pedestrian & look as though we think we are better than we are.
Mistake likely to happen at any moment. Usually at least 1 a game that costs us a goal
Another 2 points dropped today
We win that but for a moment of real poor keeping. No foil anywhere near him only had to catch the ball
And Knockeart has apparently admitted his goal was a cross... Just to add to the disappointing air.
Bilic got it right - its about the mindset.
And the subs were disappointing. We seemed to be trying to settle for a point.
However, I'm very confident we are at least a top 6 side. Result was disappointing but overall we dominated a side that will also be up there. And I think we should get better.
Penalty on Bobby should have been called. Would have been a 2-1 win.
Still bothers me that we conceded that corner goal...yet we get way more opportunities and do shite all with our corners.
