He's up in the stands, but just before Scholes came out, they showed a picture of him talking on the phone. As the commentator said "I bet he isn't ordering take out"

77' Howard leaps to secure a very high cross in the box. Saha goes down hard in the box. Once again G. Neville may have gotten away with a foul in the box.

78' Malbranque breaks free in the PA. Howard lays out and deflects the ball just enough to make the save.

79' Goal to Fulham. Inamoto behind the defense and chips Howard who is racing off his line.

Doh!

That smarts...

3-1 to Fulham. A well deserved 3 points look to be headed Fulham's way. They have truly been the better side today.

And to think I just benched Inamoto on my fantasy team

Yellow card to knight for delay of restart

I haven't heard much about the last two goals. Was Howards at fault at all?

No Keane, limited Scholes. But I think the biggest problem was no Phil Neville.

No, Howard's defense has betrayed him royally today.

Odds for a Fulham win today were 11-1 against at kickoff

Surprising yes, but Fulham was 6th in the table going into today's match so we shouldn't be too shocked I guess.

3 minutes of extra time to be played. Surely no way back for United at this point.

wjarrettc · Oct 25, 2003

Full Time.

Commentator: "One of the greatest results in Fulham history!"

wjarrettc · Oct 25, 2003

First result at old trafford since April 1st, 1969 (no foolin!)

SAF was high on Howard after the game:

"We made a terrible start, and Fulham fully deserved to win the match. There was just a lethargy about the team, and it could have been six - our goalkeeper was marvellous."
