Fulham @ Hull City START YOUR ENGINES!!

Okay, there's less than a week till the start of the season and I couldn't be more excited.

So come on already....predictions? Lineups? Hopes? Fears?

2008-09 starts now. Let's celebrate with a line of bananas:

:banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana:

 

I second the bananas. Why am I so nervous for this match?

 

I'm going 2-1 good guys

 

After Hodgson's verbal spanking, the Boys react, 0-2!!!

 

I am with Don on the lineup except Pantsil in for Stoor and Stoor on the bench instead of Volz.

The Whites start the season with a 2-0 win on the road!

 

Fulham 2-1, goals by Zoom and F5 (if he plays, if not, JB). Fulham go up 1-0 early, surrender the equalizer fairly late and win it in the final 10 minutes. On the lineup, I have no clue except that I think Don's is reasonable.

I'll be at Bethany Beach, DE this weekend. I'll find out Friday if the local bar has Setanta. If it does, I'll hold out until 2:15. Otherwise, I'll be in the Official Fulham USA Chat Room.

Opening Day! Yeah!

 

I'm calling for a 3-1 win to the Boys in White. Goals to Zamora and Davies, and Nevland grabbing one off the bench.

 

WAHOO!!!
I have never been more excited to see a season start.
I am with QD, 3-1 to the Whites!!
CCCCCOOOOOYYYYYWWWWW!!! :3d footy:

 

My lineup is...

Aussie

Stoor, Hughes, Hangeland, Konch

Davies, Andreasen (Most likely Murphy), Bullard, Gera

AJ, Zamora

Should be a good lineup from top to bottom. I don't see any holes that will be exploited by Hull. It's too bad Deuce will see less playing time this season, but it shows that the quality has picked up in the side at least.

Can't wait... COME ON YOU WHITES!!!

 

I actually was so pumped. I laid awake in bed last night thinking of a starting 11.

------------------Schwartzer

--- Stoor ---- Hughes ---- Hangeland ---- PK

-- Davies --- Murphy --- Bully --- Gera

--------------- F5 ------- Zamora

Zuby, Andreasen, Dempsey, Nevland, and Volzy

I'll say a tough 1-0 victory to the good guys.

WELCOME BACK GUYS!!!

COYW!! :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana:
:banana: :banana:

 

----Mark----

Paintsil----Hughes----Brede----Konch

----Davies----Murphy----Bullard----Gera

----Nevland----Gera

Bench: Stoor, AJ, Andreason, Zuberhuler, Kallio

2-0 to Fulham----Nevland with a brace.

 

Re: RE: Fulham @ Hull City START YOUR ENGINES!!

Because it's Hull Twente's first match in the top division. They will be A-M-P-E-D for this one.

Fulham wins 2-1 in the most difficult fashion because, well, you know, it's Fulham.

 

After Lee Cook's demonstration of his invisibility skill, I found it equally plausible that Gera could replicate himself on the pitch.

 

2-1 for the guys in white.

Zamora and Gera netting goals.

I am pretty pumped that the season is starting up. I know this is the preseason homer in me, but I have a good feeling about this year.

 

----------------Liquid Schwarz---------------
-Pantsil--Hughes--Hangeland--Konchesky-
-Davies-----Murphy-----Bullard------ZTM--
--------------Zamora---Nevland-------------

Bench: Stockdale, Baird, Stool Stoor, Andreasen, Davis, F5, Healy

0-1 on some late David Healy voodoo magic. Momentum builds after Marlon King misses a penalty.

 

Now THAT is funny!

 

---------------Schwartzer----------------
---Pants---Hughes---Hangman---Konch---
-Davies---Bullard----Murphy---Gera-----
-------------Zamora---Dempsey------------

Stockdale, Stoor, Seol, Volz, Andreasen, Healy, Nevland

(I went with Dempsey because I wonder if F5 has blended into the team enough yet. If he has, he probably starts and Dempsey replaces Healy on the bench)

2-0 Whites (Gera, Davies)

 

I think this match all depends on Fulham's ability to control the ball and limit Hull's chances. The fans are going to be fired up for their first ever top flight game and we've all seen a crowd's ability to inspire its team. I think the result will be as simple as who nips the first goal. If we score first and take the wind out of their sails we'll win, but if they score first, the fans will go ballistic and it will be hard to swing the momentum. Either way I don't see this one ending in a draw.

........which means it will probably end in a draw.
