We didn't deserve anything from that tonight. We sorely missed the hold up play from Welbeck and the ball kept coming back at us. Not sure what the plan was 2nd half, plenty of possession but what's the point if the ball wasn't played into the box
Honestly - not really but you have to hope!

Fulham vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***
Bad night at the office
The pitch size and slickness didn’t do either team any favours. We looked clumsy and error prone as a result.
Anyway it will happen from time to time, nothing we can do about it now, need a home performance on Sunday
The only positive was the away support [emoji1303] pretty much non stop throughout

I knew we’d loose tonight when my horse painless potter won today- it was a bad omen

Not awoke
Got better odds prematch …I did do a small offset on the draw…thought we were due a poor (relatively) performance….hopefully a bounce back Sunday
Credit to Fulham who lest we forget lost narrowly against an inform Arsenal and were close to beating Liverpool
Well, that was a bit 'meh', wasn't it?
We looked right off the pace, too much sloppiness and the desire to win just didn't seem to be there. Thought we were in with a shout after the penalty (nicely taken too), but even that didn't really give us the impetus we lacked tonight.
Credit to Fulham, they gave us a game and we were sadly lacking. No idea why we started without DW this evening - a rare Potter error?
As an aside, I do love Solly, but by Christ I wish he'd hit the target before I pass on
Not the end of the world, but it pisses me off that we missed another chance to go top - it almost seems like we don't want to enough.
Still, so Leicester 2-0 and all will be well again, and we've still had a great start to the season.

That was shocking - Alexis is the only player who can hold his head high, he showed some drive and desire (Mitoma showed willing too, but I don't think the end product is there yet). And what on earth they were doing during injury time will totally perplex Potter
Ooh you're a superfan who doesn't get disappointed after we play poorly and lose, well done.

Most fans just venting frustration. Think most recognise we've still had a bloody good start to the season and Fulham - esp at craven cottage - will be no mugs this season

"It was a tough moment for us. Nine games unbeaten was a good record but we couldn't win."
"Our first half was not good. We were not at our level."
"When you come to this place you have to be 100% and we weren't."
"We are really sad but we will keep working and go again on Sunday."
"I think they were two cheap goals. In football you have to react. We did but it wasn't enough."
"It is always nice to score a goal but it means nothing because we lost."
"We don't think about that [finishing top of the table]. We go match by match and step by step."
"We will try to rest then prepare to win at home [against Leicester]. We know we have to win with our fans."
Fair comment. The unbeaten run wasn't going to go on forever and the better team on the night won.
Still 10 points out of the first 15 is excellent.
Make it 13 from 18 against an out-of-form Leicester and it's all ok.

i read that as Sanchez drunk .... might have explained a few things
So you think that Potter, Sanchez, Estupiñán, March and Lamptey are good enough for OUR club?

Frustrating game.
That was definitely our toughest game of the season so far, regardless of the result. They were well organized and worked relentlessly hard all game. They didn't give us any space to play in or time on the ball. Our poor performance was in large part down to them.
I thought they had a bit of luck with both their goals but we could have played another hour and not scored so...
Also, I wast wearing my lucky boxers so I guess this ones on me, sorry! I'll make sure I have them on for Leicester.

I haven’t read the thread before the full time whistle went but I came away from that game pretty deflated. Fulham wanted it more than us, really disappointing.

one of the few players to come out of that game with any credit. kept working and a great penalty.
Going to do an 'I had a season ticket at Priestfield so can look down on everyone else for not being as much of a superfan as me'?
