Game really came to life in the first 30mins and we could easily have been ahead by a few goals... Second Half, Fulham got a lot tighter in Defence and could have gone ahead by a few goals themselves so draw was probably a fair result tonight.
In terms of our best player would have to give it to Henderson for making some superb saves, Gudmundsson could have had a hat trick but was wasteful before fading 2nd Half.
Parker got the suspected abuse but dont know what was said from the bloke in the Lower North as Parker seemed really pissed off over it and was demanding that the fan come down and say it to his face... In terms of his play the guy can still do it
Unfortunately, the flip flops and beach towels are in the dressing room. Don,t bother turning up for the next 5 games, got a feeling the old Curbishly April shut down has arrived, and the team won,t be turning up either.
Draw about right result. Can't believe Johan missed what was almost a carbon copy of his first but can't blame him as he played well. Parker was a shadow of his former self. Shame he didn't get a second yellow and get sent off. Also would love to know what was said to him from NL. Can't believe he retailated. After what he did I reckon he got off lightly yet he still acted like an idiot.

As I predicted they bossed it, Parker was superb, lots of small intricate passes but on another level to our lot
I punched the air at the final score
As an aside I thought our support post Scum was good and as I have just told my mate I would hate to be a Fulham fan - 2200 tops and probably only 300 who stood and were up for it

Fox crunched him and the ball down by the NE corner and the ref gave them a fk. While he was picking himself up he just started mouthing off to someone in the crowd. Somebody obviously had just wished him a pleasant evening but it got him very wound up. Kept on and on he did. Tosser.
Sorry but they were there for the taking. Poor start by us but we then dominated the game following their goal until half time. Don't like the Johnson and Ben Haim combination. Too similar and one paced. Should have wrapped the game up by half time. Vetokele's performances are a concern and he looks permanently knackered. I don't think anyone played at more than a 7 and nobody below a 6. Fulham were tidy in midfield without a real cutting edge and started to hit the ball high to Smith regularly. Parker showed glimpses of what he has but made a few unforced errors. Should have walked about with three points easily.
As a game it wasn't great it wasn't dreadful it was Championship run of the mill. Let me get this off my chest to start with. It has been put to me that Parker shouldn't have reacted late on as he did, and he is paid enough to put up with it, but I felt the general antipathy towards him and the reaction by the fans at the front of the north lower was classless and a bit shameful. Parker was chopped by Fox quite clearly, and it could have been dangerous, it was a tired player, who was once one of our best ever, and hero worshipped back in the day, and also 'one of our own'. He responded to taunts and jeers and it was all so sad. I am sometimes reminded to 'move on' on matters like Luzon's appointment, or Chris Powell, but sections of our support can't do it with Parker. He left over ten years ago and we still act in such an ungracious way. Very sad, very sad. Sour taste and all that. Back to the game. Fulham began well, we gifted them a goal, for which TBH, Johnson and Henderson didn't cover themselves in glory, and Fulham were in control. We got pretty lucky with our well finished equaliser, may have been the 'correct' decision, but few of us would have moaned if an offside had been given. It was after we equalised that we discovered why Fulham have had such a poor season, disjointed, lots of unforced errors, the odd good bit, but overall unable to stamp any kind of authority over us. Just as well for Fulham we were kicking the wrong way, because attacking the covered end second half we would have gone on to win. We were disjointed and inconsistent too, looked jaded, but hey ho a draw occoured. How many full games in how may days for Gomez? In that context he was good. The rest of the defence was average, maybe Fox and Henderson on the good side of average. In midfield I thought new big hope Diarra and Bulot were below average, but JBG and most especially Cousins were good. Igor and TWWW huffed and puffed OK, but were mainly neutralised near goal and we lacked real threat. Seen worse, seen better, but we're mathematically safe, and Fulham make it tougher for Millwall so not too bad.
Good end-2-end game. Gudmundson flashes of class and Bulot always looked dangerous. Watt bit selfish on occasions but at other times passes when you want him to go on... I'm sure he can only can only get better with experience. Vetokele needs to practice, practice, practice on his first touch. Some suicidal defending at times - and there are times, in front of goal, when they need to just clear it! Fox is improving with every game but Gomez decision making bit suspect at times. Think on the whole draw was fair. Fulham better than their league position.
Pretty average game really. Thought Fulham just shaded it. Parker bossed the midfield, always looking for the ball even if some of the passes were league 2. Took the opportunity to watch the match from my seat for next season in Q Block of the West Upper so that has to be the highlight of the night for me. Great view ...
End of season type of game and I quite enjoyed not being overly stressed about the outcome, glad the goal was controversial, was it offside? I feel closure for that ridiculous throw in/free kick caper all those years ago that cost us points when we were playing for our premiership lives.

Ungracious? He refused to play for us despite long contract to get a big money move. Defoe at 16 moving for a new home for his family and Yann with unsubstantiated contract demands get far more stick. Never heard him say anything positive in his prime about us. Yesterday's wasted talent.
Poor defending by both sides - we need more pace in defence. Our final ball was lacking especially from Watt who seems to follow a blinding piece of skill with a dreadful pass. Abuse of Parker was tedious Draw a fair result.

I thought Fulham looked alright, definitely better than relegation stragglers. I suspect they play well when Parker does, and he'll always be up for it against us. We both had chances to win so I'd say 1-1 is fair.

Fox did well as did Hendo. Gomez might have been at fault for the first with TBH but would have to see it again.
We might have got lucky with our goal as Bulot looked offside but didn't touch the ball. I would be moaning it it had been the team.
Bulot looked dangerous on the rare occasions the ball reached him.
Watt and Igor don't look as fit/sharp as they have been.
The players Fulham have they shouldn't be struggling but they are.

Don't like the Johnson and Ben Haim combination. Too similar and one paced.

Time to turn off CL as I'm in a club in Turkey ... It seemed the better place to be than The Valley tonight!
