Never really seemed on it tonight.....but anyone else think Martin could have tried a bit more, especially in the build up to their first equaliser ?
Still a lot better to this time last season.....onwards and upwards.

Its a rather nice feeling when we can look on this and be disappointed. When was the last time a draw felt like a loss. Its hard to take after the Newcastle match but we have ended up with the same amount of points most of us would have been happy with. Sixth spot is only a point away. We are still very much in this.

Lots of games, it's hard to keep the intensity going for every minute of every game.
Back on it, come Saturday.

Blackburn deserved that point, by the sounds of it. Sometimes you just gotta say "well  done"

Another poor refereeing display - when will the FA get control??

Something tells me we got carried away with Newcastle

We are drawing too many matches at home, it's a shame, but we are a point closer, we really have to win Saturday.

Wolves got a winner at Brentford too, they'll be in good spirits

Sessegnon starting up front - we were one nil up against one of the bottom teams - Slav gives Martin a chance, surely he can help.. he couldn't possibly make it worse for us up front... then people comment that he was lethargic.

Personal opinion is that Slav shouldn't play Martin again this season, or rely on him. He's poisonous to the club and the team dynamic, it ruins the passion the team have for playing for one another and for the shared goal of reaching the playoffs.

How spolit can the guy be that he's put on when we're in a leading position that he is given a guilt free opportunity to just show some effort and get us through the game. Cyriac comes on and scores minutes within his introduction.

Well done to Cyriac though! Shame we weren't in the top 6 today, but we're now within touching distance of two teams in the top 6, not just one... Wolves next... felt like we shouldn't count our chickens today until the game had finished and not sure we have the consistency to ever not expect Fulhamish results. We don't make it easy on ourselves.

As soon as Martin came on, my chin dropped and I thought that the result was inevitable except I was surprised that Cyriac scored and we managed to get a draw. We have had so many highs this season, but tonight gutted is a good topic to describe my feelings!

Nobody played really well.  Fredericks maybe  the best of an indifferent team performance.   Cyriac took his goal very well from an excellent fredericks surge forward.

There was no need to bring Martin on. We lost our shape after that, too much unnecessary tinkering. Martin isn't exactly going to die for the cause.

By the way, I almost forgot, if your watching Fulham Tup North, total posts are Dusty Binnish now.

Cheer up my fellow Fulham fans!  We have done this many a time to others; at least we came away with something.  A quality goalkeeper would have collected that final cross but onward to Wolves.

I am still gutted though, so many ifs and buts, and we never seem to find an easy way to do it. But a win on Saturday could change that.

I don't think Martin isn't trying (he was harassing their back two quite a lot), he's just not very good and massively ill suited to our game. When he lost the ball ahead of their goal, it's just a case of a player not having the capability. 

Players looked shattered in the second half, and I'm actually kind of worried about Wolves based on that as there aren't many changes we can make.

Personally i disagree, i thought he was putting in a lot of effort, the ball just did not run for him, but i guess he is going to be put down whatever he does.

Luckily they played tonight too and will have to travel back down to London again. I'm also happy they won. They won't be as desperately in need of a win now. Be prepared for a backs to the wall job for them.

We need to come out the traps early and gets shots off asap before they get the chance to waste time and frustrate us

I couldn't for the life of me find a complaint against Martin. He did all that could have been asked of him. He is big and slow but put himself about. If ream had a bad game but kalas didn't, and Martin didn't try then I have watched a different game to most of you.

Still in the hunt! A win would have been psychologically great as it would have put us in the top 6 but we are definitely still in with a chance. The other teams in top 6 will drop points too, we just have to keep going, take what we can and hope it is enough

N.B. Sheffield Wednesday play Reading on Friday, so if we win Saturday we will be top 6!

Mad about this. Ye typical Fulhamish off-days but this shitshow at the Cottage with drawing every game needs to end now if we still want to get to the play-offs.

Fans who sing that we're going up: sod off.
