Fulhamish

A trip to Cardiff City under the lights brought to an end the first chunk of Fulham's season and whilst a draw from what is always a tough trip to the Bluebirds is absolutely nothing to be sniffed at, it was marked by a somewhat comical red card for pantomime villain Harry Arter, returning to the club with which he spent last season on loan. We break down everything from Fulham's slow starts to some ridiculous refereeing.

With the first element wrapped up, it was time to take a look at the season as a whole so far. 10 points, 6th in the table, 5 goals for Mitro, three wins, two losses and a draw - we crunched the numbers and took a whirl through the Barnsley, Blackburn Rovers, Huddersfield Town, Millwall, Nottingham Forest and Cardiff - before answering a stack of your questions.

One cup, over and out. Fulham's reserves put up a decent fight against Southampton, with one or two standout performances, but ultimately a drab game was settled and our Carabao adventures are over for another year. Dom Betts, George Cooper and Dara Curran were on our Love Sport Radio fan show and reviewed a game and performance that (bar Rodak and O'Riley), will not live long in the memory.

We looked ahead to Friday's game against Cardiff City. We spoke to Scott Salter from the View From The Ninian Podcast to get his thoughts on our game against the Bluebirds, under the lights in the Welsh capital.

It was a heavily frustrating afternoon for Fulham on Saturday, as Nottingham Forest came to Craven Cottage and battled (by any means necessary) to three points in SW6. We dissect the game looking at Fulham’s suspect defending, Betts’ positioning, a meek refereeing display and bizarre subs from Scott Parker (that did kind of work).

We then look at Tuesday’s slightly meaningless Carabao Cup game against Southampton before taking on some of your questions, and putting some new player chants on the table.

What a night at the Cottage, as Fulham broke all records during their 4-0 win over Millwall. 85% possession and nearly 1000 passes in a dizzying display from Scott Parkers men. We look at all the key talking points including Cavaleiro's exceptional finishing, Steven Sess impressing again and Knockaert getting off the mark.

Later in the episode we discuss Rui Fonte's departure back to Braga and look ahead briefly to this weekend's Nottingham Forest game.

Back-to-back wins for the boys in black and white and the Fulham bus is back rolling in the Championship, with Scotty at the wheel, The Terriers were tossed aside by a bread-and-butter Mitrovic header and an absolute peach from Ivan Cavaleiro, his first in a Fulham shirt. Added to Tom Cairney's thunderbolt against Blackburn, we can only say 'more of the same please boys!'

The boys take a look back at the Huddersfield game and everything that went down at the John Smiths' Stadium on Friday night, before taking some time to discuss our first game under the lights this season - Wednesday night's London derby against an in-form Millwall, spearheaded by an old friend of FFC in Matt Smith.

And, as ever, there's a host of your questions to finish the show - ranging from debutant Steven Sessegnon, to where Bobby Reid fits into the XI, to our favourite Fulham celebrations ever.

Fulham are up and running, ladies and gentlemen! A screamer from the skipper, a tap in from the big man, and a hell of a performance from everyone's favourite brother-in-law Harry Arter in the middle; now we're three points up, a clean sheet up, there's plus one on the goal difference and everything seems a little bit rosier.

We break down the game against Blackburn at the Cottage, with a full analysis of the performance and a breakdown of the debuts for three of our new signings. There's a quick look at the interview that Tony Khan gave for FFCTV and what it means, before we finish with a sackful of your questions,

The transfer window is over. Whilst Fulham have made plenty of signings on deadline day, the notable absence of a defender is a sore one. We discuss the new signings of Reed, Reid and Onomah, the departure of Ryan Sessegnon and the non-arrival of Michael Hector.

Finally, we looked ahead to Saturday's match against Blackburn Rovers. Dom Betts, George Cooper and Jack Kelly were on our Love Sport Radio fan show and spoke to Ryan Hildred from Rovers Chat.

We're back underway on a new adventure, and Fulham were welcomed back to the Championship in true Championship style—being beaten by a newly promoted side who were huge underdogs, with a timely reminder that anyone can beat anyone else in this truly remarkable division. What wasn't truly remarkable was Fulham's performance at Oakwell, which lacked any sort of cohesion, spark, flair or tactical nous whatsoever, and the Whites are going to need to find all of the above very quickly if this season is to go to plan.

On the bright side, the transfer window is not yet closed, and reinforcements, we imagine, are on their way to the Cottage. We discuss the potential additions of Harry Arter, Josh Onomah, Cameron Carter-Vickers and Mo Besic, with plenty more to chew on as well, before answering a whole host of questions about the weekend and beyond.

The final countdown to the start of the championship season is on. With less than a week to go until Barnsley, we discuss all the latest pre-season happenings at Craven Cottage.

We start off with our thoughts on the West Ham game, including a mixed performance from Bettinelli, the surreal 3-sided atmosphere and how big a blow the Mawson injury could be. After that we look at the outgoing transfer of Andre-Frank Zambo Anguissa to Villareal, which provoked differing reactions from the panel.

Outside of that we discussed Harvey Elliot and the rumoured Sessegnon for Onomah plus cash deal. As always, we finished with your questions.
