Good solid performance.Getting back on track with Tomlin getting that bit stronger every week.I'm confident it's onwards and upwards.

How on earth can you say happy with that?

Played off the park until Arter was an arse and got sent off.

Twenty minutes against ten men, a home draw against aside relegated well before us and Glatzel still not off the mark.

Happy with that if we aspire to stay up but if ambition any greater than that, you win games like that.

Lots of pluses, defence was better except the goal.

Bacuna improving

Still, that was a game we needed to bring tomlin on after the red card, think he of made much more impact.

Attack still a big concern, just aint working.

Muphy did fk all except the goal

Played off the park. Forgot Fulham can score by passing it about between their CBs. Don't believe the medias portrayal of good football. Draw was probably fair on chances tonight.

2 points dropped in my eyes. Not taking advantage of games like that will punish us in the long run.

Taken point at beginning the'ir tactics just stopped any momentum from us! it was an appalling display of time wasting can see why they lost at home last week and tbh on this performance they will not be in top 6! If wasn't for stupid defending we would have won that game...

I agree it was two points dropped.

Could make all the difference to us finishing 12th or 13th at the end of the season!

More positives than negatives for me.

Play offs easy!!!!!!@

We were magnificent at time wasting when we beat Wolves away in the season we got promoted so I'm not sure we can claim the moral high ground.

The amount of time they took with each goal kick though was ridiculous.

How much of our own time did we waste setting up for Morrisons long throws? Even from our own half.

Happy with what, watching over 100 long balls which made no impact. Playing Tomlin who wants it to feet does he get it , NO.
A football brain tells u that we are a one track pony. :bluebird:

Agree Fulham are poor, so why didn't we go for win when they had 10 men. Put Patterson on played into their hands. Long throw inept, played 4 at back when a side goes to ten men a true football brain tells you take a full back off. Get extra man in middle midfield and keep the width. :bluescarf:

Quality tactic to waste time. Simply put the ball out of play somewhere deep in opposition hslf. Wait for their captain and CB to saunter over to a wide position he shouldn't orthodoxically be in, find a towel, dry the ball and wait for assembled players ahead of him to be in just the right shape to fight for a second ball that is available after a header is inconclusive thirty yards ahead after the ball has finally been thrown.

Thought Fulham were crap tbh and im disappointed that we didn't beat them especially when we're at home and they were down to 10 men. 2 pts dropped in my eyes, but I thought there were a lot of positives such as Peltier, Bacuna, Ralls and Whyte. My worry is our lack of end product in the final third. We have an International break now, so hopefully we come back better and more clinical as I've not seen enough yet to suggest we're gonna finish in the top 6.

Fulham actually played more long balls than we did..
get the ball play it long
OR..pass it around the back for 58 passes, stop have a wank and then hit it long..

People saying should win when they were down to 10 men should know it's harder than playing with 11 and quite often 10 beats 11! But in Fulham's case we were never allowed to get momentum when we had ball so be happy with point there was signs of improvement generally but support for glatzel is a priority if we are to be targeting top 2 or 6.

Well said pembroke, some of our fans are sooooooo negative, even when we win there are detractors, and agree Glatzel needs support,I don't see why Warnock doesn't go for it against fulham,cost us in the prem,and he seems a little bit afraid of them :? Gives them praise too much imho,but I would have taken a point,with the way we have played so far,go into the break,give the new boys time to bed in a little bit,I heard Glatzel was expecting his wife and kids to be here,perhaps that will help him settle,I believe he just needs that one goal for some reason ;) also a bit of extra time for some injured players to recuperate a bit more.glass half full me :occasion5: :old: :bluebird:

Once again lost a lead. We must learn to manage a game more effectively.
