Fulham is poor at holding on to a lead with 19 points dropped from leads with:
2 points dropped from a lead five times against Sheffield United, Liverpool, Newcastle United, Burnley, and WBA.
3 points dropped from a lead three times against Leeds, Aston Villa and Man United.


How many of those defeats were down to conceding in the last 10 / 15 minutes of matches? The fact that it keeps happening and it hasn't been sorted is down to Parker.

They are professional experienced players, who should be fully aware of the basic art of defending, individual mistakes by players are not Parker's fault. No matter how much coaching goes on human error happens, Tosin for example he was superb up until last couple of games when a couple of errors stuffed us, not tactical or bad coaching, just pure and simple player error.

And on the other side of the coin is that we have only gained 1 point from a losing position (at Spurs).

Paints a grim story.

I don't believe we ever led in either match vs Leeds, but we were at 1-1 in both of them and lost twice.

Compounding this, we have one point all season (at Spurs) from matches in which we conceded first. That also speaks volumes about Parker's lack of attacking nous. Once we're trailing, we're absolutely dead. We rarely even get level, and if we do, we just ship more goals and lose anyway.

Just looking at the odds of teams avoiding relegation.

Newcastle 1/7

Fulham 16/5







West Brom 15/2

Bit surprised by that, I would have thought that Fulham and West Brom  both have about an equal chance now (going by points and fixtures), whereas the bookies think it's approximately twice as likely that Fulham can do it rather than West Brom.

Looking at Newcastle's last games, they really have a very tough run in on paper.





West Brom have an easier run in than Fulham which, combined with recent form of both teams, probably accounts for the bookies' odds.
