Ready made excuse now. He'll say we were getting back into it before the red. This could be an embarrassing scoreline now 

It's already an embarrassing scoreline - they're no great shakes.

Really? So far in his three possessions in their half he’s had the turning circle of an oil tanker, taken umpteen touches and created nothing. Bucko bailed him out of his latest run into a crowd.

Hero one minute boo boy the next...grow up.....deep lying midfielder my arse.

Mowbray is a knob and he needs to go

You either put Johnson at CB or you take him off. Just took off someone that can run with 10 men, now we are playing with 9.Johnson has zero energy 

[OsloRover]

Don’t think the ref had much choice there, reckless and inexperienced from the dutchman

[jim mk2]

Tonight is why we need a new manager

Pathetic play from Van Hecke. He’s not very good is he!

Nope, looks another bad un to me.

He was lucky not to get a 2nd yellow against Coventry too. Bambi on ice 

[Proudtobeblue&white]

Ref missed two clear handballs. Doesn't matter now, we've lost.

[Fraserkirky]

Fulham in dreamland here and barely broke a sweat. 

[Bigdoggsteel]

Mis-timed by Van hecke and it looked worse because Wilson had his head low. Still, he should have went with his head,but easy to say now

Shambles of a game 

[OldEwoodBlue]

Not a red card for me.

 

At 2 down already I don't get the change. Should have gone 3 at the back. Basically we have given up on the game.

[Lihamylly]

We shall be victorious. So c'mon!

Can’t agree with that. Will be good with time, after he’s left us of course.

I was just thinking the same and about to check the lineup!

[DavidMailsTightPerm]

Did Wilson not hand ball prior to red card ?

Handed to them on plate. 

[BigBar]

We've been dirt, ref has been worse and tbh Fulham haven't been great, 2-0 is flattering but the red has killed it, should of been handball before it.

Reed did but the ref isn’t playing handball tonight.

I don't give a fuck if it was meant to be handball it's an absolutely disgusting challenge.

[Fraserkirky]

You can be as close to the playoffs as you like, but Fulham and West Brom have both looked different gravy against us. Massive gulf in class all over the pitch. 

[jim mk2]

Buckley the one player who might be able to create something and he gets taken off

Tony's defending the 2-0

It obviously was, but if the ref had done the job he was paid to do, it wouldn’t have come to that.
