Match Thread Fulham 1-2 Everton. Sat Feb 7th. 3pm

We're on the March with Moyseys army
We're not going to Wemberley
And we'll really shake em up
When we win the 7th place cup
Because we're the best the world has ever seen

and wouldn’t that be good?

If you watched it tonight you'd assume it was a weird dream

But not a patch some of the weird dreams I have some nights

Moyes is no genius.

Silva has seen his team absolutely bottle it.

Yet Moyes' teams consistently, over decades, happen to not bottle it.

While Silva's teams generally bottle it more

But it comes accross on here that many people would rather he starts their preferred lineup but lose the match.

Because the reason we won was partly down to his lineup. There is not much between us and Fulham in quality and they were at home.

An away win today was the third most likely outcome according to the bookies yet we did it. And it was highly likely because of Moyes team selection that we did win. Under Martinez, Silva, Dyche etc we lose that match...

who is saying that? How can you say the starting line up was a positive towards us winning? Seriously asking. I would rather he figure out what the best team is with the squad he has and play it. Honestly in his mind, he might think the starting lineup was our best. That is where we differ and the glaring disparity in performances from one half to another is what is really maddening. Is that fair to say?

Imagine whereabouts in the league we’d be if we got things right before kick off rather than in the second half

Did Leno score an OG when playing for Arsenal against us, I am getting old now so may be wrong

Might have actually!!

But games like this, winning at Villa from nowhere and beating United away with 10 men for a whole game puts us in a position to be even be talking about it

Football is played on the pitch, not paper

It’s much more sustainable to win the games at home against teams lower than you though. With half a season to go, it’s very risky to hang your hat on miracle away games. Obviously they’ve been huge for us so far, but they mean nothing when we blow it at home. Eventually the odds catch up to you and we need to be as consistent as possible to get Europe (which has to be the goal now)

 

[brittcop1]

You’ve just dumbed it right down there mate to be honest, nice one!

I knew i could get you to figure it out Have a great evening.

 

[Bkk Andy]

Great result even if we were a bit lucky. It says a lot about this league that we're sat in 7th. We've had a few awful performances to date.

 

[NathDogg]

We cant keep being this lucky.

Or can we

No mate, Pickford and poor finishing from Fulham stopped that being embarrassing in the first half.

It’s not good enough from the manager.

 

[Sarnia Kevin]

In the Moysiah we trust!

I was going to go for Idrissa for MoM just to wind the haters up (for a man whose "legs are gone" he was certainly dashing around the pitch in the 94th minute), but I've plumped for Jimmy Garner. I thought Harrison Armstrong was in with a shout too.
We just need to get the wins going at home now.

 

[Ring master]

That was a hell of a win. I had draw at worst today for us. Based on 1st half bar 1st 10/15mins we were battered and so lucky to be in it at HT. 2nd half like so many games we took control. At 1-1 i was hoping we would get a late winner as Fulham have had one late goal (Scored or conceded) the last 3 odd games,while we obviously did last week. As we looked the onyl team that were going to win. Thankfully we got that winner

It’s a crap pot but that Conference League must be the most winnable cup out there

Imagine 2 seasons ago someone would have said to you, in 24 months well be top half in February 2 points off them. 7 off the CL and in with a huge chance of playing conference league footy.

You'd have called an ambulance an had them committed

Don’t really care about 2 seasons ago to be honest

Backhealed riches cross into his own net

Great finish
