Fulham vs Aston Villa Pre-Match Thread

[rob_bridge]

The thing is now all the pressure for this game is on Fulham. Win and they are still maybe 5 points off auto. Lose and theu are 10 points off and lookinh over their shoulder.

Being honest it is a game we can afford to draw. Though fancy us for a win.

I'd definitely take a point away against the other in-form team in the league.

But we are the in form team across Europe

Depends how you measure it. I saw one before Sundays win with us 4th across Europe.
The below one has Rotherham chasing down Juventus and Bayern.

The noses would like that table. It makes us 21st in Europe. With them being 20th in the championship, by their twisted logic that makes them better than us.

Adomah is out which is poor news

[Damo70]

I do very much disagree with the people who would settle for a draw. Surely we have to be going for wins if we want the second automatic promotion place.

Not good but maybe a chance for Green if he IS fit?

I can't wait for Saturday. It has been a chore for so many years. I am 'loving it'.

[andrew08]

I actually thought after the Saturday results that we could afford to draw against Fulham providing we beat B’Lose. There is a big opportunity now though to give a big blow to Derby as well as Fulham with a win on Saturday. We want to get to the Cardiff and Derby fixtures with those games being must not lose rather than must win.

As a one off game though Fulham is always a weird one. A great day out and usually we play rubbish. This then negates the ‘well we’ve won 7 so we’re due a defeat’ with ‘ we’re due a win at Fulham’

Looking forward to it.

I'm really looking forward to it, but getting more nervous about it as the week progresses.  The news about Albert hasn't helped!!!

One nil to us and we can party like it's 1974.

I'm over 60 now. Not sure what my other half would say if I start rolling in at 3 in the morning on weekends and then start throwing up in the bog. I will need something better than "we won at Fulham".

Genuinely have no idea how this game will go

Fulham are on decent form themselves. Can't see further than 2-2... Hope I'm wrong. We need to cement our place in the automatics...

Leeds supporting mate had no doubt we'd be up there with Bruce in charge. Obviously I gave that the scorn it deserved... if we make it out large amount of humble pie will be eaten.

Can anyone less thick than me tell me how to get from Marylebone to Putney Bridge while avoiding these routes, please?

[cdbearsfan]

Think I've got it...

Bakerloo Line Marylebone to Piccadilly Circus

Piccadilly Line Piccadilly Circus to Earl's Court

District Line Earl's Court to Putney Bridge

That works, yeah?
