And?
 We lost to Brentford and Derby in quick succession and gave up a two goal lead against Shef Utd about a month ago and that was not acceptable.   I think our expectation is more than your average Fulham fan's , quite rightly.

Those teams are in the top 10.

Sunderland are Sunderland. Fulham also drew to Hull over xmas, another team in terrible form.

They're not that good. Just started regularly winning at home which gives them a chance of play offs.

One thing is for sure, we are going to have another blip before the end of the season.  So will the majority of our competitors.  I think with our squad we will be there or thereabouts at the end of the season, whatever the result on Tuesday.  But there's going to be ups and downs on the way, we just need to hold our nerve.

1 point difference now. I listened to the last 20 minutes of Derby's match and they thought Derby were really poor and didn't deserve to win.

Think we'll look back at this night as the tipping point in May.

No way is Derby winning all four of those.

Can see Brentford getting a point. Norwich are a funny team aswell, some to win a fair few away.

Three home games and Preston about to lose their main striker. I'm only concerned with the Fulham match. Last season we looked atrocious but I feel we could be a slightly different proposition this time out.

Astonishing to see where Sunderland and Hull are, that could easily have been us last season

The 11 Sunderland put out at SHA tonight was frighteningly bad. Unless they sign some good players in next 24 hours they are going down.

Players won't make a difference at this point. The whole place stinks of death just like we did in the year we went. They just haven't changed the environment at the club, and Coleman has made no difference at all. They're in complete freefall now. Morale gone completely.

Let's hope everyone gets down to VP on Saturday, we need big crowds for every game on the run in now. None of this 31k bollocks.
