Tough on Derby, in my view. No sympathy shown at all, and relegation looks likely.
This leaves me suspecting that my team, Reading will get a harsh points deduction too. 9 has to be on the cards. Not 21 in total, as we haven't gone into admin.
Note though that the last time Derby were in Division 3, they finished second, to Reading. I hope it won't be possible to repeat that next season.

I don't think it's tough. They've consistently taken the piss. It's shit on the fans if thats what you mean. I like Derby so nothing against their actual club.

Yeah - tough on the fans. Plus of course Reading are in similar shit so a little sympathetic.
Reading deducted 6 points. Could have been worse. We could still stay up.

Thanks for the heads up - I've been out all day and missed that. Could, indeed have been worse. Pretty comfortable we will stay up, though if the club decide to sell Swift in January, it could be tight.

Yeah, every club has them. Just seen that someone had been arrested for attempt murder. Lives ruined for fuck all.

Thanks. Edited. Was overcome and with excitement .
If it’s any consolation you scored two of the best offside goals I’ve ever seen.

Its fun to be a Fulham fan this season. After 2 and a bit seasons of nervy Parkerball, its very welcomed, even if one of those seasons included a promotion via the play offs beating Brentford.
Its seems inevitable that we'll go up this season, more than likely as comfortable champions.

Despite our very recent yo-yo history we are improving as a team. In our last 4 championship seasons we've..
1. Lost in the play off semi finals to (a dreadful) Reading.
2. Promoted after beating Aston Villa in the play off final
3. Promoted after beating Brentford in the play off final (what a shame couldn't be there)
4. Probably promoted this season automatically.
And yes, the football this season has been a joy to watch after Scott Parker's extremely cautions approach. The last 2 games would have been nerve wracking 2-2 draws.

Yep. Will be interesting to see how he gets on next season. When we were promoted 2 times ago (and were fucking dreadful in the prem) he scored a respectable 11. He's in the form of his life now. His alround game is wonderful to watch. Not just his scoring. I still think Louis Saha was a better player but he's certainly one of the berst strikers Fulham have had in my time watching them.
Next season could see Chelsea, Brentford, Fulham and QPR making up 20% of the premier league.

They'll still overtake Reading before the end of the season.

The will if Reading play like they did last night; they were woeful - Luton didn't get out of third gear, and cruised to a comfortable 0-2 win.

yep, that's what I meant. It's as if the players are being paid to get us relegated.
Most Reading fans have pretty much given up. Why hasn't the manager been sacked? Fck knows.

I wouldn't go. The thought of QPR singing that "you're not fit to wear the hoops" song, while they stick 5 past us is terrifying.

Rodrigo Muniz looks a very promising young player. Not a bad understudy to Mitro is he?
This was a lovely goal.
and what a player young Fabio Carvalho looks. Shame it looks like he's off the Liverpool. Another young player leaving too soon imo. But I've heard older FFC fans saying he's the best player the come through the ranks at fulham since Alan Mullery and Johney Haynes. Praise can't really get any higher. He's been such a pleasure to watch this season.
