Fulham v Reading match thread

[PokerMatt]

This day couldn't be going worse. except when Newcastle get a late winner.

I really hoped I could come and say "I told you so" for defending Jol, but this is bad.

[Rambler]

We are very much still in a relegation fight, i don't understand why people think we're safe

[alexbishop]

Atkins first win as Reading manger...FULHAMISH

I *think* with the fixture list we can't go down as teams below us are playing each other etc.

[grandad]

It shows how important that unexpected win at Spurs was.

My thoughts exactly. Don't see us getting another point after that.

[MisfitKid]

I feel for those that had to watch this in person...
And paid money...   :58:

[Fulham_Surrey]

sorry, but Hugo Rodallega has missed sooo many chances.

we can, one point for us would make it almost impossible though.

Awful, woeful, shameful. Only Rodallega can hold his head high today, best performance in a Fulham shirt he's had.
Jol has to take plenty of blame. Tactically he got it horribly wrong. Reading are quick on the wings, the right wing especially so dropping our quickest left sided players made no sense whatsoever. They also pack the midfield so play a diamond formation also made no sense. Very very poor from him.

The players were truly woeful though, completely unprofessional. I'm not even going to single out individuals because no one had a good game apart from Rodallega.

[Only Me]

the only good thing is we have a better goal difference than most below us.

Norwich could be in trouble

[Fulham_Surrey]

just saw the penalty.  That was NOT a PK.  The refs again.

One game doesn't make Jol a bad manager. All in all he's done more good than bad.

Wigan have: Swansea (H), Arsenal (A), Villa (H) Need 6 Points
Sunderland have: Stoke (H), Southamption (H), Spurs (A) Need 4 Points
Newcastle have: QPR (A), Arsenal (H) Need 3 Points
Norwich have: WBA (H), Man City Away Need 3 Points
Villa have: Chelsea (A), Wigan (A) Need 1 Point

We have Liverpool (H) and Swansea away.

It is not totally out the realms of possibility that we'll go down actually....

I think you are wrong mate. We could go into the last match of the season in 18th place i believe

It was I think but Kelly fouled Berba as well. We deserved a point on chances alone.

[grandad]

Wigan have 3 games left. Home to Swansea, away to Arsenal & home to Villa. If they get 6 points they will be on 41 points. We need 1 more point to be absolutely safe.

Can you honestly see that with our fixtures?

Shows how important this game was, this was our best opportunity to get some points and quash the relegation fears. Now we have some hard work ahead
