Newcastle v Fulham

Premier League Fulham
by Toonken (U10460680) 18 March 2008
comment on the article

NUFC fan in peace....
How do you think you will do this weekend ? From your recent results looks like your team is coming good, not sure what your run in is like ours is not too bad with only one of the top four to play (Chelsea at SJP).
However the definition of what represents a good or bad run in, depends ultimately on whether or not the games are won. We look much better under KK than we did under Sam Allardyce despite results and 'hopefully' will survive in the premiership. No doubt you have similar hopes and fears for your team.
From the looks of things it should be a good game which neither team can really afford to lose. I think we will be going all out for a win so doubt a draw is on the cards as we will undoubtedly leave ourselves open at the back, I personally think a 2 -1 home win. What are your thoughts ?
Whatever happens, for those of you travelling up, 'Welcome to gods country'

Both teams seem to be coming into a bit of form so it has the makings of a good game. However, I'm sure the fear of losing will ruin any chance of that.

As for KK he looks like a man lost at sea. His time at City proved he cant cope at this level anymore. I'm afraid you NUFC fans who think he'll do it for you again are suffering from yet another bout of blind optimism.

Aye, 2-1 me thinks. If we don't win this, we're gonna have a major struggle staying up. Owen and Milner I think.

Milner's injured. Would just be expecting Fulham to score in stoppage time, if it was 2-1.

Anyone who thought this was ever in doubt is an idiot.

Toon haven't played well for much of this season, but fans will tell you that since Keegan arrived, we have rinsed the poor teams at home and played well away.

Fulham didn't have a chance and I don't think many teams will have dominated as much as we did today. I predicted 4-0 and it should have been, the halftime highlights on the channel I watched were 100% NUFC (and it was not nufc.co.uk tv!).

are any Fulham fans man enough to come on here and admit they were wrong? Jimmy who?

Wrong about what? Having had a quick browse through the comments, I think the consensus amongst Fulham fans was not that we would definitely win, merely that we had a chance. If there's one thing Fulham fans seem to be better at than other fans, it's realism.

Congratulations on a deserved and much-needed victory.

No, I didn't go to the match. Newcastle is quite a long way from London.
