[Archived] Fulham v Rovers

[CrazyIvan]

I got my tickets yesterday, in the neutral stand unfortunately because away end sold out so hopefully there'll be quite a few of us in the 'neutral' stand. . ..i'll wear a chelsea shirt

You own a chelsea shirt?

[nellybc]

Nothing new there then.

Um - you missed Andrews out Sure as eggs is eggs he'll be on the team sheet

Not quite!!

He is in the team i expect to be picked, not on the team i want to be picked ;-)

He wouldnt set foot inside ewood park for me again!!

ha no, it was a joke about it being a neutral stand, i don't see why they have one so big if at all

Fulham are in decent nick, especially at home this year and our away form remains very poor. Mark Hughes will have identified this fixture as one he hopes to get all three points from and Fulham are certainly favourites to win. Duff has scored 3 in the last 5 games or so, and they have fewer injuries at this time than when we last played them. They have achieved a very good draw at Eastlands and some argued they deserved all three points in that match.

At Ewood, Danny Murphy controlled the game and was easily their best player on the day. As much as anything, stopping him controlling the game is as important as who we play and where we play them, recognising that they will have more possession of the ball than we do.

It is time the players started earning their salaries and show real desire to compete and win the match. Blame who you want, but the players should be doing far better than of late.

It is time that Kean applied considered thought to what he is doing and emphasises to all the huge importance of this fixture. A win takes the immediate pressure off, but a defeat makes Blackpool our biggest and most pressured game of the season to date, which is absolutely laughable.

Yes I think you are right, it needs a good marking job done on Murphy, give him space and he will murder you!

Thank god for that!

Does anyone have two spare tickets?

[broadsword]

They could have been on the bench and given a chance late in a match. That's what I think SHOULD have been done...

Yes, a cheeky 15 minutes here and there would seem to be sensible.

Very surprised this has sold out, must have been a small allocation, but all credit to the fans that are going, good effort.

Draw 1-1

[G Somerset Rover]

So pumped for this match with every hour it gets closer. I just hope the players are too and it's not a case of Wigan away under Ince 2 years ago.

Should we get thumped I'll be tempted to act like a ten year old and wait for them at the team bus.

Feeling a bit anxious for this one, Fulham are more resilient these days.

[Shabani]

The 2-1 win under Big Sam a couple of years ago when we were in trouble springs to mind... A similar performance is needed

Great to see that we have sold out, hopefully the players will respond with a performance...

[Bobby G]

I hear we've sold out our section. How many Rovers are going to be there?

[rigger]

I hear we've sold out our section. How many Rovers are going to be there?

Probably about 800

[sambo]

Probably about 800

1700 allocation sold out

[Tom]

Strangest sell out I can recall. I'm surprised we are taking more than 500

[Neal]

Has anyone got a spare ticket to sell for the Fulham game? It's much needed, desperate in fact!

[rigger]

1700 allocation sold out

I believe that we where only allocated one section by Fulham it holds about 700 with possably another hundred or so in a neutral section, that was my 800 reasoning

Playing Hughes always terrifies me.

Feel we will suffer a thumping, terrified what will happen to the few strands of moral that remains.

[Rovers_4_life]

If anyone has a spare tickets for the game please PM me, would be very grateful!
