    CC started with the "same ol'" and pompey took advantage of it, scoring in the 32nd
    From TeamTalk:
    Now for the downside:

    CC still doesnt seem to want to admit he has recruited a 442 team to play 451. Or admit that his tactics send the message to the players to play defensive football.

    Worse yet are the bleepin fans... for my view, see my thread about fan v follower... who are giving CC all credit for the win, yet when I ask on the Kiddie Banterdome, not one rabid fan can give me an example of a player recruited for immediate game list who has actually improved since coming to Fulham.

    And then there's the fans who actually venture that if CC keeps them up, then Fulham can 'recruit 8 or 9 Prem Quality" players"! To replace the "crap players" he recruited in the last two years, of course!


    I ventured before the match that Fulham would win, or rather that the players would, if CC only gave them the chance.

    And :

    From another fan:
    No, it sums up that he's out of his league and too stubborn to let the players decide what formation THEY think will do best.

    So CC gets the blame when they lose but none of the credit when they win? Yes they were lucky not be down 2-0 early in the second half but they rallied and played with huge heart in the last 30 minutes. Great contribution from McBride and terrific game from Boa. You should be happy - I am.

    I am EXTREMELY happy!

    You didnt get my meaning.. all credit for CC to actually go for a result instead of praying for the lucky counter goal and a tie!

    But, I repeat, it WASNT his plan... it was his "desperation".. and he said as much himself, didnt he! So he turned loose the attack... and the players responded... so WHO was it WON the game? Read between the lines of the reports... different attitude..

    In fact, it was a GREAT weekend for me, footy "fan-wise"
