We were the better team, more pace and flair up front and we would easily win such games.

Thought Taylor Brady and JGB were all way less than 100%. Great point considering

Good result that’ll do, now just have to beat West Brom
Our manager will probably adopt the same pragmatic approach as tonight.

Decent point considering, not a great performance though, but another small step towards safety anyway, And more importantly we denied them gaining any ground, still 8 points which with only 14 games remaining is a reasonable cushion.

Hopefully big Ben will return for the weekend and inspire us to a win.

Less of an attacking force, but think that will have been under instruction.

Fulham aren't that bad and we really weren't great at any stage. The goal we gave away was absolute rubbish and once we equalised I was happy to take the point and move on, as it really doesn't help them catch us up. But we have to be more clinical on Saturday.

Without Ben, would’ve taken a point before the game

4pts from last 2 games isn’t bad.
We’d have taken the results the other way around

Two points dropped against a sh!t team. Looked like we’d go on and win it for 10mins after we equalised. After that we seemed to settle for a draw. Fulham looked like they wanted it more in the end - but then they probably did.

Looked a bit tired and lacked a bit of energy but to be expected really. Good, hard battling point against a fellow relegation contender. Don't lose was surely the minimum, performances don't matter in these games, it's points. A win would have been nice but beggars can't be choosers. An important point and step towards safety.

Totally agree Brady has offered nothing for weeks, and it's quite obvious his head is on his Celtic career now, Brownhill is the future and actually wants to be at the club so if fit he has to start, I genuinely thought Robbie was showing promise after his goal against Everton, and a few decent displays, but he's not been at the races since Christmas, and he could have cost us a damaging defeat tonight with that shocking performance, thankfully we managed to rescue a valuable point, but no thanks to him, and whether he was injured or not I'm glad SD made the call to hook him, the team is far more important than any individual, and he needed to be subbed for the good of the side.

I don't think their form is particularly relevant.
SD will most likely to be happy with a draw which maintains our points advantage over WBA.

I think that is why people were expecting another comfortable win. But looking at Fulham, they are in a false position and I can still see them getting out of it. You are never too good to go down, but I never suspected for a second Norwich would go... I do not have that feeling yet with Fulham.

If Fulham can win Saturday and Newcastle lose at Utd, a 3 point gap with 13 games to play is nothing and psychology will start to play its part.

As disapointing as it may be not to have won, we have to be happy that we are now 2 points ahead of Newcastle and 1 ahead of Brighton with the same games played. Our future is really in our hands (feet).

Aye Fulham are really poor, that draw tonight means they're unbeaten in 6 on the road, and they have also won at Leicester & Everton this season, so they can't be that bad can they.
