Fulham v Swansea
Here’s the take on our next away game opponents Fulham on Wednesday night.
They’re 4th in the table with 17 points from 9 games.
This will be tough, we know, but if Reading can go there and win so can we. Fulham have just come down from the Premier League, changed their manager, kept all their players and strengthened, adding two players worth a total of £20 million, impressive.
Their results so far -
25/9 Bristol City 1 - Fulham 1
18/9 Fulham 1 - Reading 2
15/9 Birmingham 1 - Fulham 4
11/9 Blackpool 1 - Fulham 0
28/8 Fulham 3 - Stoke 0
21/8 Fulham 2 - Hull 0
17/8 Millwall 1 - Fulham 2
14/8 Huddersfield 1 - Fulham 5
8/8 Fulham 1 Middlesboro 1

Disappointing night at the Cottage as Fulham totally outclassed Swansea.
Mitrovic given free rein to score a hat-trick, could have been more.
Back to the drawing board for Swansea as their possession football is getting them nowhere.
Russell Martin on Sky after the match said he was proud of his players, disillusioned or what?
Passes going astray, being dispossessed frequently, and wide open at the back.
Meanwhile our scorned ex-manager gets his fourth point in two games for Forest in their 1-3 win at Barnsley.

We were cut apart first half when we conceded the three goals.
Fulham sat back second half and let us play our pretty but ineffective football.
Yet it could have been different if Downes had scored instead of skying a good chance over the bar and Laird actually hitting the bar.
