unclej Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 Anyone catching Football Focus on BBC 1 today couldn't help but have noticed the blatant misery on the faces of the pundits when analysing the first leg score and contemplating the second leg at Fulham. Danny Murphy 'hoped very much' that Fulham would win and Lawrenson nodded along. What a sorry bunch they were in their support of the 'one game too many' Cottagers. Nice one.

Murphy played for Fulham for 5 years though, and will have an affinity to the club. Lawrenson is just terrible (have a look at his prediction on BBC and what the table would look like if he got every result correct). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shipley Ram Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 I think Lawrenson still dislikes us for the Saunders transfer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought exactly the same.....it clearly pained them to even mention derby never mind give us any credit. London centric miseries Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1967Ram Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 Lawrenson is an awful pundit IMO. Can understand Murphy wanting Fulham to win though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abu Derby Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 Next year we’ll be the last match on Match of the Day every week, even though we’re in the Champions League places. Makes me sick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VulcanRam Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 Dean Saunders was on Talksport yesterday bigging up Derby saying he wanted us to win and thought we would. It's no different from Murphy wanting Fulham to win. As for Lawrenson, I didn't know he was still about. Mind you, the BBC still think Garth Crooks is worth a wage so no surprise really.

WhiteHorseRam Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 I used to think it was my imagination, but I honestly think we are 'unfashionable'. Often you will hear some pundits wax lyrical about Clough Senior or Steve Mac, but its almost as if they are trying to show someone that they have a clue or have done the background reading. Perhaps Mel should make us play in light blue or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OTOH, Fulham are clearly a better team than we are and deserve to go up more than we do. Yeh, yeh, yeh it's who wins and every team knows the rules, but Fulham are better than us just like we were better than QPR and Leicester. For the most part, I think the better team deserves to go up. I'm making an exception this year however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rab a dab doo Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 It doesn't matter which way you try to wrap it up its the team which wins three. Playoff games that deserve to go up to the Premiership. Has we have found out to our cost its not necessarily the best footballin team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gone Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 The media lovelies want Fulham to win so they can make the short trip across the city to watch some football. Sorry boys football comes from the towns and cities that built this country, the only places where working and middle class stand together for a single goal. These cities are Derby, Middlesbrough, Leeds, Sheffield, we do not give a toss about the capital. Love it if we get promoted, sod Danny Murphy you were just a bog standard footballer pal, nothing to see here move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derby blood Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 Deano was a top class player when he played for us, loved the guy, and was a excellent player , the way he took the piss out of Adams at Highbury was class, one of my all time favourites players for Derby, and also a top class bloke.

Ramkesian Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 Building. NO, that was down to the working class of this country. The city of London shaped the country to what it is today, sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you need to realise the amount of working class people who also live in London. Not everyone is some super rich millionaire living in a swanky penthouse on the river. That assumption is like me saying that everyone in Texas owns an oil field and 3 ranches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
