Craven Cottage, my favorite domestic away day bar none. Last night was without doubt the strangest Spurs support at the Cottage I have ever experienced, the only word I can find to explain it is Bipolar. It was like a verbal war between AVB in vs AVB outs. To my right were AVB outs (in conversation) but VERY positive support for Spurs during game. To my left vocal AVB out, not a single word of support for the team, only words that came out of their mouths were "you don't know what you're doing", and "AVB out". Behind me was "AVB's blue and white army" non-stop very positive and infornt of me was a mixture of all of the above alternating literally from one minute to the next. I am delighted to say the vocal out brigade left in complete melt down on 63 mins, missing our two goals………haha cunts.
As for our performance it was as mad as our supporters. When I saw the team sheet I was pleased with it, especially following the Man U performance, but 20 mins in it was clearly not working. AVB made some positive changes and they worked. Having a drink with my Fulham mates post match and they said that was the 2nd best Fulham performance in 1.5 seasons (they said the best was against Woolich last year when they played with 10 men for 80 mins, they lost that too). Fulham pulled out all the stops, with a new Manager to get behind and their fans were given those fucking clapper things, the result was the loudest Fulham support (still not a cauldron) I have heard at the Cottage.
IMO the player that "lifted" us, the one who was the most spirited, determined, who had the most desire was WALKER!! This boy plays without fear and he never gives up, the positives he brings to the team far out way his weaknesses, he is our most under rated player.
Hugo was immense.
Delighted for Holtby and Vald.
We still have a lot of work to do, both on and off the field. As supporters we should get behind the team regardless of how things are going. For those who want AVB gone that is fine with me but have the conversation amongst ourselves, right a letter to Levy. Fuck it, if you want to chant AVB out you can but vent your anger outside the stadium, before or after the game, but don't transmit the negativity to the players that serves no purpose at all. For me the best chant that rang out was ATTACK, ATTACK, ATTACK because it covered all factions of the Bipolic support, so let's sing this if things are going shit.
Great to see Beni, what a lovely bloke (sorry can't post my photos for some unknown reason). For a guy who doesn't like football he goes to a lot of games.
