Sky Bet Championship at Craven Cottage, London

Evening all. I wonder what is in store for us tonight.
Just saw that Patrick Roberts is in the starting XI for Boro.
Roberts has pace & they will use it on quick breaks after our attacks break down.
Roberts v Bryan should be fun, if you're a Boro fan
YASSSSSS
Nice to have Cairney back in the team, been missing that vision in midfield recently.
Great cross by Bryan to give Knockers a tap in.

People need to lay off our captain. He's vital to this team moving up.
YEEEEEEEEES
Nice finish
Am I right in thinking Patrick Roberts has now played more games at Craven Cottage than at the Ethiad Since his move to Man City ? He has only played one game for them.
Playing with more pace, no slow buildup.
Perfect start. Nice cross from Bryan for the goal.
Onomah should have buried that
Our best 15 minutes this season.

think he went there once with Celtic didnt he? But yes wouldnt be surprised if youre right
Build up to cava chance was a thing of beauty
Surely we can´t be thinking of selling Bryan..Cav & Onomah have missed sitters.
ah stick it away Cav!
Most enjoyable 17mins all season so far
Looking assured so far. Should be more than one up at this point.
Doing very well exploiting the area outside their back 3.
Playing with real pace. Very good so far. Should be two up.
We should be at least one more up and IF we had this young Boro side may cave in.
Wow sounding great.
Onomah, how did you miss that!?
I really hope we don't regret this missed chances
We NEED to score one of these chances!! Otherwise it could come back to bite us.....
So many open chances is unreal!
Mitro would have had a hat trick by now... Boro are terrible, but so is our finishing.

When we dont have Mitro we seem to play with a much quicker tempo
How do you shout out to Jamie and GJ?
It's a 1 0 massacre so far, when it could be and should be a 4 0 massacre. Lots of energy alround, but it's goals that decide matches.
But it's wonderful to watch Fulham tonight.
This is scintilating stuff. If only we could finish.
We have got to score one of these chances, you cannot be this much on top and keep missing them, it will come back and bite us, if they get lucky we will be in real trouble.

Almost did just then. Need that second badly.
Seems we stopped playing when I turned in!

You mean today? They beat both Preston and West Brom recently with 2-0 clean sheets.
They are in form.
Boro are playing tighter to our players so not the same space. We really be at least 4 up.Hope it doesn´t come back to bite us.
Very good first half. Only complaints is the scoreline. Should be well ahead.
Nice first half, but really concerned that FFC couldn't score that second or third goal. Onomah blew a clear header and Cav missed a sitter. Might come back to haunt. Overall, well played first half for FFC, just unable to score another......
Best first 25 minutes this season.
But we need that second goal!
Outstanding half but we should be further ahead. Onomah had to score with the header. Boro will surely close us down more in the second half and they've carved a few chances.
Fingers crossed we get the second and keep up the great approach play.
some of our play was a bit like the Millwall game early in the season. We should be out of sight by now.
Boro to come back in 2nd half :(
The next goal is the most important, goals change games, we could do with another, sooner rather than later.
Where's the urgency gone?
and now we look exhausted and cant string a couple of passes together. Changes coming I imagine
one yellow with Kmac here comes the other Stefjo
2-0 Odoi. Massive goal. Scrap that.
linesman being competent for once :(
What a Waste of a Somersault.
Anyone who cant see how this ends will have never seen a football match before
Chance after Chance and can't get the second
Hector has been immense tonight

What a great block by Hector
He could make all the difference this season
McNair = cheat
cheating boro player

I'm guessing via twitter but I don't know how
Mawson?
5 Mins added. Don´t get it. Only subs, no trainers.Should be no more than 3 mins.
Massive three points and great start to weekend
Phew!
should have been a hell of a lot more comfortable, but it's getting easier to be a Fulham goalkeeper isn't it.
Big Hec MoM for me
Very Poor 2nd half that from Fulham
But a win is a win
Relief, job done but that we needlessly nervy.
An excellent overall performance. Boro did not have a shot on target. Hector was a rock.

Disagree. I saw players competing for a full 90 minutes. Boro was chasing the game.
Not sure how anyone comes to the second half performance being poor.
Should have been 3,4,5 -0 but we win again!
Cheers mates!

I just think some people are very good at finding negatives... but it is subjective after all/
Outstanding in the first half. Weathered the storm in the second. Hector immense. Happy with that
It was NOT a poor 2nd half. We did the job that needed to be done. Boro had to throw everything at us. We stopped them having a single shot on target. Can´t ask for more.
I like the look of Hector. 2nd 1-0 in a row??
Big performances from Odoi, Hector, Knockers, and Reid.
See you all in the discussion forum.
