[center] Fulham v Atletico Madrid



Channel 5... 7:00 pm(7:45 kickoff)

HSH Nordbank Arena in Hamburg

COME ON FULHAM!!!!!!!!!!! etc etc[/center]

p.s. I hope someone hasn't started a thread yet as this took me ages

Not really arsed about the game.

But if Fulham win,well done.

really hope they do it, they deserve it as they have had a bloody tough run in. however i think athletico 2-0.

then again i thought juve, wolfsburg and hamburg would spank the living daylights out of them.

looking forward to next years
in fact I'm gonna get a tatoo

Not sure I want fulham to win anymore lads! I mean how much would it de-value any success we get through it?

Think about it, if we wont our first cup for decades and its this, people would just say, oh fuck that fulham won it last year without spendin much money. We'd get barely any praise :-(

It's difficult to say though. Surely if we had qualified this year we would have had another good run again , like last year ?

So who knows ? I'm for winning every competition we enter. I don't care about the money invested ( or not invested as the case may be with Fulham).

Just on me way out - couple of classes then down to an Atletico bar run by a mate of mine - got me shirt on and ready - sorry Fulham but this is ours !

But we never get any credit anyway, mate, so it's no loss, and we get our hands on a trophy.

I'd like them to win it because:
a) they were down among the dead men like we were
b) I like Hodgson
c) it means Burnley will get into Europe via the Fair Play League
d) they are English and not the filth
e) it is hard to dislike Fulham as a club and as a set of fans

this could be a good game of football for once also.. hope so cos im gonna watch it.

as for a Fulham win devaluing a win for us or any other team.. is that what you think in your heart of hearts? if not then take it as a lesson and dont listen to others mardy attitudes mate

Burnley won't get a spot anymore mate, england have slipped down the order in the fair play league

I fancy atletico to go ahead but fulham to win it, maybe in extra time or penalties

Fair play spots go to Sweden, Finland and Denmark (or was it Norway?)

Hmmm might watch it but I got a lot to do tonight so might end up keeping track through my iphone.

Good luck to Fulham have got a soft spot for them. Lovely part of London .

Yeah i truly believe that, don't you? I also have a soft spot for Fulham (dont know why! They bring about 10 fans to Coms - You all seem to aswell) But it just wouldnt be the same if we won it/ did well in it next year. For arguements sake, we should have won it last time. The rags would have ready made jibes for us.

Its kind of similar to the fear I have if we start winning big trophies. My fear is that money ruins the game, fans become disinterested with the prem due to the downfall of scum and whilst we win back to back leagues, nobody cares about the prem anymore, as if its not fashionable just because the rags are shit! Extreme fear I know but . . .


On other matters I want Pompey to win the FA cup, as i think thats a different matter. Met a few pompey fans in town after our match last week (dunno what they were doing up here) and they were good lads.

you said it mate..

as for City's potential future success, i wouldn't let anyone take the joy of that away.. and tbh it only takes an understanding of the fact that anyone who begrudges other peoples, or fans in this case, success are just showing themselves to be miserable cunts.. the kind of thing the press do all the time. dirtbags.

Anyway back on topic.. good luck to Fulham they have got to this point the hard way with some ridiculous performances and comebacks.. you have to love it

So basically the happy clappy countries. Fix!

Really hope Fulham do it. After all the obstacles they've overcome to get here they certainly deserve it.

Ill be cheerin the Fulham lads on tonight they deserve it.

Oh my gawd, the atmosphere in that stadium.... I soooo want that for City.

Next year lads this will be us.
