You guys MUST beat Birmingham this weekend! All the best, because I want you to stay up! (I will also be praying for the demise of Reading, since you'll be through on goal difference!!!)
Live viewing on Setanta Sports North America at 10:00 est for the American supporters. This is a big game, boys. As big as it gets. If anyone on here will be at the Cottage on Saturday, make sure you bring it hard for the Whites.
OK, I've said this like a million times before, but its REALLY DO OR DIE this game. COYW!!!! Fulham 'til I Die!!!!
Projected lineup anyone? I like this: -------------------------------Keller--------------------------- ------Konchesky---Bocanegra---Hangeland---Stalteri------ ------Dempsey------Bullard------Davies-------Murphy------ ----------------------McBride-----Kamara--------------------- What do you think? I am biased with Boca in the middle. Dempsey is better at RM IMHO, he can play up top but with McBride and Kamara's recent form, I like that pairing in the middle. What does eveyone else think? C'mon you whites!!!
Where are all the Fulham fans gathering on Saturday morning in NYC? I'll jump on a train if there's a bunch of you hanging out somewhere.
Nevada Smith's . . dude, we'd love to have you. Please be there, if you can. Should have about 10 people there at least, hopefully more. Waiting for more peeps to confirm. Check our thread in the Gatherings forum on FulhamUSA.com
Let me know the best way to get there via subway. I'll be coming into the city via NJ Transit from Trenton. I'm sick of watching games by myself.
YEAH BOY!!! From Penn Station take the A downtown to 14th Street. Transfer at 14th Street for the L train (towards Brooklyn) to Third Ave Get off and walk downtown on Third Ave (get on the right side of the street) Nevada Smith's is on your right between 11th & 12th Check the website, so you know what to look for. There is also an address there so you can google map it. I'll private message you my cell number so you can get in touch with me if need be. EVERYONE IS INVITED!!!
Fixture change for Arsenal-Everton to Sunday so I'm blessed to have a first-row seat on the touchline Saturday Riverside. I'll be singing "Come on Ful-ham" with your supporters, as I really do very much hope you guys can stay up! Any tips for a Yank making his first trip to the Cottage? Please excuse my ignorance, but is there a chance either Healy or Johnson will get some action and, if so, which one the more likely?
Oh, wait . . you're GOING?? I didn't realize that. I think I can guarantee you won't see Johnson on Saturday. He's not ready, and I don't think Hodgson will hedge any bets on him, not for a match this important. McBride, Healy or Kamara to start up top most likely . . and Healy or Kamara as supersubs. As for tips? I dunno, you're an Arsenal fan . . lots of bars around, the Golden Lion is the Fulham pub to go to though. However, wear neutral clothing or they won't let you in.
Get there EARLY. Putney Bridge tube stop is a nightmare. Go to the Golden Lion on Fulham Rd before the match. Tell the lady at the door you're with FulhamUSA.com and she'll let you in. After the match, walk up Fulham Rd to the Parsons Green tube stop, as it will be much less crowded than Putney Bridge. If I think of anything else, I'll post it here.
Many thanks for the tips! I sat among Fulham supporters at Loftus Road a few years ago and found your crowd terrific. Planning on wearing black but the idea of wearing a US Nats jersey crossed my mind (think I'll stick with black). I'm very very psyched! The Golden Lion it is!!!
Me too... really looking forward to a tough fought match with the Cottagers victorious! I'll be behind goal in the Hammersmith end at AmericanMike's suggestion. See you at the Lion then Doc!
If I didnt live in the UAE, I would have probably been there. I guess I'm going to end up watching it @ Roof Top in Royal Mirage, all alone.
I'm anxious for this game to get here ... I think they can definitely win this game. B'Ham has been on a skid and Fulham is playing better. Hopefully they'll really put it to them so that we can look forward to next week. Let's go Fulham!!!
Count another Yank in the front row (section V) at Craven Cottage screaming out support for Fulham. I happened to be in town for business and got a ticket yesterday. Oddly enough, I ran into Doctor K at the Sloane Square tube station tonight -twice! Small world (especially since he sits one section across from mine at RBNY). NYC support in full effect tomorrow. Come on Fulham! I'll be at the Golden Lion as well, so I'll see whoever there.
Good show, Cottagers! I even forwent my Arsenal affiliation and wanted to see Sp*rs actually win... Now, let's finish the job at Pompey. COME ON FULHAM!
