    Yup, its sad to say that it is our last match of the season but we are staying up and hopefully we can enjoy next season more than this season.

    This match, depending on other results, could be worth a total of 1.5 million pounds to the club and, to keep the drama going, Norwich could be relegated on Sunday as well. Please note that this is a complete sell out on sunday, no seats, no standing room and no hospitality packages left....lets party!

    COME ON YOU WHITES, LETS SEND THEM DOWN!!!


    p.s.
    I will be attending this match in person...woohoo!! I'll have a drink for each and every one of you...

    It would be great to end the season on a high note and it would also be great to see Fulham relegate Norwich City. It is not as though I hate the Canaries, but I am hoping we can help Crystal Palace stay up. My girlfriend is a Palace supporter and the combination of a Palace win and Norwich loss could mean that Palace stays up.

    Most importantly though a win would possibly move us up a few positions in the table. It has been an up and down year, but finishing on a high would be great heading into the offseason. It should be a great atmosphere on Sunday. Have a blast Mike!

    Great news of the day is that this match will be on TV Sunday morning. It will not be on LIVE, but it will be on Tape Delay. The match will be shown at 12PM EDT/11AM CDT. Thus, it will be on a two-hour delay. However, that works for me and I am excited to see the last game of the season on the tv.

    What channel is this weekend's game on? I'm going to be at my in-laws and might be able to see it if they are putting on Direct TVs Pay-Per-View.

    What a match for Fulham! I had a feeling we would win, but 6-0 is something I never envisioned. I am so proud of the effort and committment that Cookie and boys displayed today. They could have packed up the cats and called it a season but they didn't and I could not be prouder.

    The presence of McBride on the pitch was once again sensational. I thought Norwich City shot themselves in the foot by pushing too many people forward at the beginning and if Fulham has shown us anything this season it is the fact that they can counter-attack well.

    The season ended well and we finished 13th place. While we have had some ups and downs, it was an enjoyable season. The summer months will definitely bring about some changes in the team and in the front office. Let's hope these are changes for the better.

    But, once again, the 6-0 win was the highlight of the season! It definitely leaves a good taste in my mouth for the 2004-2005 season.

    It was enjoyable for me, too.

    And I have only one word for the lifelong Fulham fans/"footy experts".."Not Prem quality, lacks pace".. NOW do you see what McBride does?

    Serve you right if he quit on top and moved to Chicago!

    Sorry, couldnt help it.

    Sweet Holy Jebez! A 6-0 thrashing! :shock: :shock:

    I believe the canary they sent down the Fulham mine shaft came back both dead and in pieces! :lol: :lol:

    I must say, with the exception of the letdown against Newcastle, Fulham have played really well over the last month. Talk about finishing on a high note -- a real ass-whuppin!

    McBride

    Yes i agree, he as made a difference, and it would indeed be a shame to lose him. He deserves another full season to show the Fulham fans what he can really do given a proper run in the first team. He looked really at home today, Andy cole looked like the players whose swan song it was.
    For all you gamblers out there, I noticed that there is a horse running tonight in the first race at Mountaineer park, the name of the horse is FULHAM, if its 6/1 I am having my mortgage on it. Will now look forward to seeing Mr Mcbride play against England at soldier fields and maybe even Boca, who i must say looked as though he had his best game for sometime, then in july I am trying to get my friend in Ohio to get me and him some tickets to see Fulham play the MLS team, I wonder what side McBride will be playing on!!!!!!

    I just got back from the match. I could do it no justice by explaining what is was like...

    I must say that after the 3 and 4 goals, I sat back took a deep breath and enjoyed every single moment. Never could I of imagined attending such a result.

    I'll also be honest and say that I have no remorse for the Canary fans, after reading the papers leading up to the match and all the negative comments and listening to Canary fans saying its going to be EASY and THREE POINTS IN THE BAG. Fulham got its just deserves...

    6-0
