Whoppy 593 Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 How bothered would you expect Fulham to be about these games? I can see them performing in their last home game but not perhaps away in the final game of the season? Link to post Share on other sites

Borodane 6,297 Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Just need Luton to lose against Fulham and the final day is going to be interesting. If either of Luton or Sheffield draw on the final day we “just” need a two goal win. Very interesting indeed and much mor than I hoped for under Warnock. Come on Fulham. Two big games to see out the season. Link to post Share on other sites

AnglianRed 6,320 Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 (edited) Well that late disappointment aside, it was still a good performance from the lads. Been a while since we got 3 goals in a game. Could and should have had more...but then thats the story of Boro's season. After the first 20 minutes it looked like my worst fears were realised and we'd have to grind out a 0-0 draw. Credit to Boro though, they found ways to open up Stoke's defence and controlled the game pretty well after establishing a 2-0 lead. Was surprised how little threat Stoke offered. Had a few efforts go wide, but Daniels wasn't called on very often. Wasn't until the closing stages of the game they applied any sustained pressure. Frustrated, but not overly surprised we conceded very late on. We are prone to defensive lapses... All in all happy with the performance and result. Wouldn't have been that unhappy with a draw and would have snapped your hand off for any kind of win beforehand. GD means its still going to be a tough ask to leapfrog Sheffield (assuming they draw their final game), but it was always going to be a tall order to make up all the ground we lost with previous poor results. Edited April 30, 2022 by AnglianRed got carried away thinking Sheff Utd need to win their final game 1 Link to post Share on other sites

We need Sheffield to lose, or draw if we can get enough goals. They are 2 points ahead, so it is impossible for us if they win. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

They want to go up as champions, but Bournemouth are only 5 points behind and could mathematically catch them. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
tmcc 583 Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Annoying to concede late, but we got the win and which is important and we take it to the last day.Also, the late goal dosent change much, regardless we need luton and sheffield not to win on the final day. We still have to do the same job as before and go to preston and win. Addtionally, Luton have a really tough away game to league leaders fulham who are looking to win the title at home and also have Mitrovic looking for to get the goals record, so i think theres a good chance they'll be up for it. Either way, if there was one side you'd want your rivals to play on the final day needing a win, it would be fulham, or perhaps forrest on current form. Link to post Share on other sites

I did mean if Sheffield draw their last game...which certainly is a real possibility. Link to post Share on other sites

Two big games to see out the season. I pretty sure that we only need two goals if it’s a 0-0 between Sheffield-Fulham. If they draw 1-1, 2-2, we need more then 2 goals. But if we score 3 then we would be above on goal difference anyway IF they draw. Basically 2 goals is enough if it is 0-0. 3 goals if there’s is a score draw. Or Sheffield lose and we win. This is why that goal at the end is so ridiculously annoying to concede. Link to post Share on other sites
