I agreed with most of your post but got stuck on this line mate.

to be fair Saint Rafa was a fecking revelation when he first arrived

That was 6 years ago mate. I have always argued that the team he took over was a lot better than some people give credit for. Same now with this present team ..... WE STILL HAVE SOME FECKING GREAT PLAYERS.

We also finished like 30 points of the pace that season mate.

Some of you still actually thought we'd qualify? We haven't won five on the trot all season. Get some perspective on the reality.

On the game, I can't fault the performance, and you'd either have to be kind of w"nker to say we played bad, or that the team wasn't trying or well capable of winning. Some games in the season you'll get a day like this when a team will just come and park the bus and hope for a draw at best. That's what Fulham did and they got what they were after. MOTM - their keeper. Had a stormer. Says it all.

no mate it dont say it all.


I dont give a that we looked good, we had a manager they did not put the right team out, it now seems that our best player was not left out due to a bad knee, put your radio put your tv on. it seems Rafa is just resting him for the EL games and sticking two fingers up at the paying liverpool fans.

Rafa is just trying to big up his own profile in the EL, he had a bad bit of press the other weeks a few teams turned their backs on him for talks. if he wins the El HE WILL LOOK GOOD AGAIN.

What the point today of setting a tram out like that, we had the ball all the time.
as i said at half time its like having the best army and not giving them guns.

if you talk about the need to buy players then look at bought the ones that did not get the goals today and would you give him more money just to make the same mistake again.? bloody hope not

There was feck all wrong with the team out today, An yes we did play well. Who got MOTM eh in my eyes it was that Schwatzer so what does that tell you,

and that is outrageous to say that Rafa left Torres out to rest him, His knee was shot to feck on Thursady night . He is injured full stop

And to those who think we lost 4th spot on that result today . Bullsh.it , We have lost fourth spot on not getting enough results away from home ,Full stop

I stiil cant believe that comment on hes resting Torres , So the next time hes gona play then is 22 April. Again bulls.hit

Do you honestly think that Rafa is saying f,uck you to us . YEH RIGHT

to be fair Saint Rafa was a fecking revelation when he first arrived

only in the CL

he did not understand english football or the history of the FA CUP.



AND TO SOME POINT I STILL THINK THASTS TRUE NOW.

That's a bit harsh lakes. Didn't we finish with a record points total in the league last year? And didn't we win the FA Cup a few years ago?

yes mate but what did he go on to do after that....sell the better players and buy player that dont fit into english football.

Well to be fair he had he eye on better players but how many times over the last few years has be been able to get his no 1 targets?

Every manager has that problem. That's no excuse.

If he doesn't get his No. 1 choice, he settles for, errrr, the likes of Voronin ?

Sure as well as...

Pennant for Simao
Skrtel for Vidic
Johnson for Alves.. it's ironic we spent 17mil on Johnno when we only needed 12 for Alves and the owners wouldn't even stump up that at the time

I know Rafa has made some bad buys but he always has to sell to raise money.

He had a good excuse then, he was just getting to know English football, 6 years later I don't think that excuse is valid anymore.

How can you say that when we finished 2nd last season and almost won the league? We made real progress last season. We up this season because we didn't replace the players who left with players of equal or better quality. I just don't see how you can blame Rafa on that. And don't say just Aquilani, there was plenty of other money he should have gotten too but didn't.

We didnt loose 4th place today we lost it by not winning away from home since Villa away in 2009.

Anyways we played really well and there was some great football onshow if Hodgeson takes over from Rafa well just feckin shoot me now because if you think Rafa is defensive youve seen nothing like this b@stard in action 

FULHAM F.C. ANTI-FOOTBALL !!!!!

Imagine we get through to the final with that shower       

Totally bang on the money girl ,at one point I seen Hodgson being told by one of his trainers that there was another half to the pitch

On Thursay night did you not see in the game Fernando must of rubbed his knee about 50 times, Hes kneee was swelled up like a balloon when he came off, I am really angry with that Story YOU HAVE COME UP WITH LAKES ,

I got 4 numbers on the lottery one week.....I didn't get any the week after.

I had 4 once... that's like £35 right? nice!!!! 

Although I hope you are not advocating last season was a fluke?
