Fulhamish Podcast

New Year, same old Fulham. The whites were unlucky at Arsenal after missing several golden chances, and ultimately conceding more sloppy goals. In this podcast we look back at all the key talking points from The Emirates.

Fulham beat Huddersfield Town in a crucial relegation six-pointer on Saturday at the Cottage, in a game that will only be remembered for 10 minutes of absolute madness at the end, sparked by the Lord of Chaos himself - Aboubakar Kamara - and ended by the Lord of the Manor - Aleksandar Mitrovic.

Fulham barrelled their way to another point on Boxing Day in a match-up with fellow Premier League new boys Wolverhampton Wanderers. It was a frustrating festive Fulham not being able to see out a much needed win, but a point is a point and the Whites are off the foot of the table with the new bottom boys Huddersfield to visit later this week.

After 18 Premier League games, and 42 goals conceded finally we can talk about a clean sheet. On today's podcast we reflect on Saturday's pleasing 0-0 draw up at St James' Park against a toothless Newcastle side.

The Whites travel to the far reaches of the North East on Saturday, to face a Newcastle team who started the season badly, but have found form at just the wrong time from a Fulham perspective. We take a look at our opposition, and how we'd go about trying to beat them; before Sammy got a view from the opposition camp in the form of Pete Donaldson from the Football Ramble.

As the festive season kicked into full swing, Fulham hosted their East London counterparts in the form of West Ham United, and treated the Hammers to a healthy dose of Christmas kindness - in the shape of two gifted goals. A frustrating evening for the Whites was compounded by missed opportunities, lack of effort and a freezing cold Cottage blitzed by driving rain. All in all, a bad afternoon for FFC.

The time for excuses is over. Fulham start a run of four festive fixtures against bottom half teams that could make or break our season.

It wasn't good, it wasn't pretty, and it certainly wasn't enjoyable; but the Whites made the long trip up to Salford's 'Theatre of Dreams' on Saturday, only for Claudio's dreams to be swiftly extinguished by lackadaisical players, poor defending and a diabolical first half.
