    I love this column over at ESPN FC:

    With Fulham's last minute tendencies, this is a spot-on description of my feelings:

    Enjoyable read w/a lot of truisms, thanks for posting Evan. Had to laugh about the 'recency effect'. I tend forget after a week or two how fortunate it was for the team to score in the waning moments to earn a draw. While I'll probably still bring up dropping two points against WBA in November.

    Depends on where WBA are in the table in a couple of months. If they're in the bottom 1/4, the memory will live more than if they're in the top 10.

    Several seasons ago, Fulham kept Hull City and Blackburn Rovers in the Premier League single-handedly by dropping six points to both.

    Hell, I can remember when Derby County was the worst Prem team EVER and Fulham only managed 2 draws (pretty sure it was the Great Escape season). Derby had like 10 or 11 points for the whole year, but 2 against us.

    Back to the present, The Undead come limping into Craven Cottage after consecutive losses to Everton & Basel, and instead of focusing on their poor form, I have the mentality of 'The Scum have to get a result, and are due, etc.' :angry-banghead:
