reddogkev Posted March 10, 2016 Report Share Posted March 10, 2016 To go to the Cottage and bring the points back to Bristol would be just what the doctor ordered. But going up against a team also fighting for their lives, and sporting the talents of McCormack (the constant thorn in our side), is going to be tough. Fulham seem to be one of those teams that are open and take risks. I see a fair few goals flying in each direction. I'd take a draw, but will it be enough for us?

FlintWonderwall Posted March 10, 2016 Report Share Posted March 10, 2016 A draw would mean we have to beat Bolton and Rotherham at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snufflelufagus Posted March 10, 2016 Report Share Posted March 10, 2016 I'd personally take a draw. It could mean we were then 3 points clear or equally back in the drop zone on goal difference. It would certainly stop the rot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tipps69 Posted March 10, 2016 Report Share Posted March 10, 2016 A draw from our away games & wins from our home games is what we should be looking at in theory. The trouble is putting theory into practice & actually achieving that is a completely different ball game!!. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fordy62 Posted March 10, 2016 Report Share Posted March 10, 2016 I'd snatch your hand off for a point. As long as it's not conceding a 95th minute equaliser! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciderbeans Posted March 10, 2016 Report Share Posted March 10, 2016 We need to be able to score first. That's our biggest problem right now. Goals win games and Fulham can score plenty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't wish it though on the masses going to the game, for their sake, I'm hoping for a 3-3 thriller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gasbuster Posted March 10, 2016 Report Share Posted March 10, 2016 We will know at 5.00 pm on Sat. If Rotherham & M.K. have both won, then no, it won't be good enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wouldn't mean we'd need to beat either of the above, just that we were one point nearer safety with another 9 or 10 pts still needed. Pretty sure MK's next two are Hull and Brighton..

Guest Posted March 10, 2016 Report Share Posted March 10, 2016 Yes. I think for Fulham drawing one of their home games against a relegation-threatened rival would be more demoralising and cause more panic than it would for us to emerge with a point.

robin_unreliant Posted March 10, 2016 Report Share Posted March 10, 2016 I expect the third relegation spot to be between us and MKD. Warnock will keep Rotherham up just see. They have Derby on saturday and a win wouldn't surprise me. MKD ought to lose at Hull so a point would see us gain on them. Realistically I can't see Fulham going down but it would also keep us in touch with them. So yeah I would take a draw. Expecting to let in at least three though unfortunately so I fear the worst.

Surely Rotherham can't win 4 in a row, they're not Burnley after all, and Warnock isn't God! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would not bet on them not winning! A point on Saturday would be acceptable but I am pretty certain Fulham will score at least 2 and I am not sure we will! Anyway regardless of Saturday, we will need to beat Bolton and Rotherham - any other result in either game will be a problem on a load of different levels, lose at Fulham and again to Bolton and things will turn badly for LL.

Lorenzos Only Goal Posted March 10, 2016 Report Share Posted March 10, 2016 I want 3 points every week, I don't expect it, if I don't get it I don't cry, but if I do then I'm in a better mood than if we don't Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Offside Posted March 10, 2016 Report Share Posted March 10, 2016 Yes I think a point would be a decent return. If McCormack has a niggling injury/sore throat/man flu and can't play it will help our cause. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
