you got that right. Sundays are always going to be difficult, and this one even more so.

The first game I was able to see in awhile. Can't say it was fine performance by the Whites but it will do. On to the next round.

Hope the fan that traveled had a good time, would love to get a full firsthand account of the match.

I'd like to start off and say that terracing is the way forward and it's so unfortunate that they are deemed 'unsafe' and illegal in the Premier League. 1200 FFC fans made the trip in just three days notice which was very good going considering the price of a ticket plus trains was 95 pound!

It was a great experience being there as it is so rare for Fulham to play at such small and 'simple' venue...while many may call it a sh!t hole, I prefer to experience everything from the small crowds, crap pitch (that is an understatement), seeing the usual away boys in a local northern pub for a few beers, a bit of a sing song and of course standing on terracing. Another ground off the list...and all I had to do was sit in a car for the 9 hour round trip.

The one thing I hated was not being able to really get excited about the game itself. Being favorites is not what being FFC is all about and it was slightly uncomfortable. At the end it was like 'that was fun but we should've won!'.

Finally the most exciting part of the postmatch was the wait for the draw of the 5th round...and what a good draw we got in the form of Notts County/Wigan at home. COYWs.

That's what the FA Cup is all about Mike, glad your enjoying it all.

ITV Made a comedy film back in 1999 called "Bostock's Cup" it never made it to DVD only VHS if you get a chance watch it, it's Hilarious.
