Rand McNally Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 Absolutely delighted for them. Was at the Shakter Donestk game at the Cottage a few rounds ago and there was a cracking atmosphere plus one of the best goals I've ever seen 'live' from Bobby Zamora. Hope they win it!

Dick Dastardly Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 If Fulham were to win, surely they would have to take Liverpool's UEFA cup spot for next season. After there claims in 2005 that the trophy is devalued by not having the champions, Liverpool have set their own precidsnt and Fulham should be in next years cup.

uberteeb Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 Well please for Fulham, gives you a semblance of belief that Thistle could do something like this one day, well almost certainly not but miracles can still happen. Also laughed out loud and was over the moon when Forlan booted that ball into the net infront of the Kop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirJohnLambie Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 I feel somewhat proud as Fulham are my second team, and thinking about heading to Hamburg for the final - £200 quid for flights seems quite decent to see likely the only Europa Cup Final for one of my teams!

Jaggernaut Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 Fulham and Ross County to win their respective finals would be a great end to the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaggyman Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 Fulhams achievments all the more remarkable when you consider that they started playing in this tournament in July last year and that they dont have the biggest of squads.

Paulo Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 Roy Hodgson for Manager of the Year They're only 12th in the league though, hardly great considering the last couple of years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 John Lambie Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 They're only 12th in the league though, hardly great considering the last couple of years. As was said, their season started in July & they have a pretty thin squad with no depth in quality, to do well in the league as well as in Europe would have been impossible. I would say they've done well to be nowhere near relegation trouble all season due to that. Makes it all the better for then considering the teams they have beat, remarkable achievement.

Mr Bunny Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 (edited) Fulhams achievments all the more remarkable when you consider that they started playing in this tournament in July last year and that they dont have the biggest of squads. Roy Hodgson for Manager of the Year I seem to remember years ago - don't recall exactly when - Hodgson was suggested by some as a possible new Scotland manager. Wasn't rated though had done quite well managing a Swiss (I think) team. I believe we later opted for a certain Berti Vogts.

lady-isobel-barnett Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 Good luck to them. They've managed to shake of being the brunt of music hall jokes without apparently compromising their family/friendly club image. I'm old enough to remember a similarity between us and them, Fulham had to endure the same Jags jokes we've had to put up with all those years. Fulham even used to have a local comedian (Tommy Trinder) as their chairman back in the late 50s/early 60s. Took us at Firhill the best part of 50 years to follow suit.

erzamacaroonbars Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 This Fulham story is what football is all about. I think its brilliant and would love it, really love it (to quote an ex-Fulham manager) if they won it. Roy Hodgeson has been a success at every club he has been at except Blackburn, who gave him 5 mins to prove himself. He was manager of the Swiss national side and completely transformed them. We really did miss a trick there! Anyway, best of luck to him and his players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackpool Jags Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 Roy Hodgson comes across on the telly as one of the most honest and sincere figures in the game today. I'm absolutely delighted for him and what he's achieved for his club. In an age when low playing budgets almost certainly mean relegation for clubs of Fulham's size within a year or two at the most, Hodgson has had them well above the safety line since he arrived there a couple of years ago. In fact, to the best of my memory, he came to Craven Cottage towards the end of the 2007/08 season when they were looking odds-on favourites for the drop and somehow managed to save them. It's been onwards and upwards since then (relatively speaking). Credit to RH as a gentleman and an unsung hero. I really hope they can go all the way and win the thing now.

sigesige00 Posted May 1, 2010 Report Share Posted May 1, 2010 If Fulham can reach to the final we can also reach final of the Scottish Cup, and play in Europe. Even Ross County has reached to the Scottish Cup final. We must get promotion, and win the Scottish Cup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mediocre Pundit Posted May 1, 2010 Report Share Posted May 1, 2010 We must get promotion, and win the Scottish Cup. Ah, is that what we should have been doing all of these years? Why didn't you say so! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
