I'm not liking some posters say it's an easy 6 points from Fulham and Leeds. Weren't Fulham something like 3 or 4-0 up against us when we played them at their place when they came up last time. And Leeds won't be an easy place to go to. It'll be 4 tough games.

I think Leeds will be OK, unfortunately.
Thing is with Fulham and the Baggies, there's so little time to prepare between seasons, get new bodies in, etc.

I think they'll both struggle.

Certainly, not many of the points will be "easy", though.

They beat us 4-2 but the scoring but it was 1-1 at one point and 3-2 at half time. We were shocking that day and I still think Pope or Heaton would have saved the two Mitrovic goals.

Was a lovely away day that game. Tube stations open and no rain all day

Can't remember the station we had to use on the underground but it was a fair distance from the ground. We walked back afterwards but had to get a taxi from station to ground because of the rain. Burnley fans were coming into Craven Cottage drenched.

Haha. It definitely didn't live up to the expectations i had of playing them at the end of August. I was hoping for a few beers by the Thames in the sunshine!

Why on earth should games against Fulham two years ago have any relevance to the coming season?

Usually a nice walk up from Putney Bridge to the ground too

We were offered a replacement bus service but the bus hadn't arrived and was hammering it down so jumped a cab.

The White Horse at Parsons Green was always our watering hole for Fulham. Great pub.

Just hope we get the chance this time round...

Parsons Green was the tube station we used. Only about a mile and a half walk but that’s more than far enough when the weather is like it was that day.
