|WHITE LINES|: Defensive Zen: Liverpool 0 Fulham 0
http://swsix.blogspot.com/2010/04/defensive-zen-liverpool-0-fulham-0.html
Twice As Bitter As Salt. Tuesday, 13 April 2010. Defensive Zen: Liverpool 0 Fulham 0. It is evident that Liverpool’s squad is superior to Fulham’s, in both ability and market value. No debate is required on this. However, at Anfield they were resolutely equal on goals scored, and points taken. Liverpool can at least console themselves with this numerical superiority, then, and talk, as they have done, of “deserving” to win. But did they? Should they be able to claim a moral victory here? Let’s be c...

|WHITE LINES|: Easter Resurrection: Fulham 2 Wigan 1
http://swsix.blogspot.com/2010/04/easter-resurrection-fulham-2-wigan-1.html
Twice As Bitter As Salt. Monday, 5 April 2010. Easter Resurrection: Fulham 2 Wigan 1. This was a curiously airless encounter. One that began to peter out from the first whistle, and to leech from the memory soon after the final one. It was strange to consider that this was a Premier League match, with all the largesse and hyperbole that typically entails. It was closer in temper and ambience to a village green cricket match. Elm was making a decent fist of being target-man but will only ever be Zamora-li...

|WHITE LINES|: Fulham's New Income Stream?
http://swsix.blogspot.com/2010/04/fulhams-new-income-stream.html
Twice As Bitter As Salt. Monday, 26 April 2010. Fulham's New Income Stream? What mystery is this? Has Mr. Al Fayed, eager to find a new source of revenue, begun drilling for oil in the sedimentary rock deep beneath the London clay? Are barrels of 'Egyptian Crude' about to become a hot commodity on the international financial markets? Whatever the explanation, this curious rig has recently appeared a few metres west of Putney Bridge. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Sharp Mind. Blunt Pencil.

Twice As Bitter As Salt. Tuesday, 20 April 2010. A Howl Of Indifference: Fulham 0 Wolves 0. Following a heartening aggregate victory over Wolfsburg in the Europa League, the lupine theme continued with the visit of Wolverhampton Wanderers, two cities that are, unfortunately, not twinned with each other. A missed opportunity by the respective city’s elders, I fear. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Sharp Mind. Blunt Pencil.

|WHITE LINES|: Saint Wayne: An X-Rated Feature
http://swsix.blogspot.com/2010/04/saint-wayne-x-rated-feature.html
Twice As Bitter As Salt. Thursday, 8 April 2010. Saint Wayne: An X-Rated Feature. What a queer compote of the sacred and the profane ITV’s coverage of the Manchester United vs. Bayern Munich game served up last night. It began with a hushed, awe-struck, announcement that not only had Mr. Wayne Rooney been delivered from physio purgatory into the squad, but - saints preserve us! He would be starting the game. What trickery was this? But all this worshipping was merely foreplay. What followed was the c...

|WHITE LINES|: Sky Blue Thinking: Fulham 1 Man City 2

Twice As Bitter As Salt. Monday, 22 March 2010. Sky Blue Thinking: Fulham 1 Man City 2. Sometimes, no matter how strong the desire, the body will not respond. In an understandable slump between the climactic night of passion against Juventus last Thursday, and burgeoning mental preparations for Wednesday’s FA Cup Quarter-Final replay against Spurs, Fulham, trapped within a kind of footballing refractory period, could not perform here. That said, the low point for me was that one of their goals happened t...

|WHITE LINES|: 90 Minutes Of Mourning
http://swsix.blogspot.com/2011/02/90-minutes-of-mourning.html
Twice As Bitter As Salt. Monday, 21 February 2011. 90 Minutes Of Mourning. Just got back from a funeral. It was a sad day. The departed was the once beautiful game of football. The pall-bearers were Bolton Wanderers FC. The service was conducted by the Reverend Stuart Atwell. Many of us witnessed the murder, watched the agonising death drawn-out over several seasons. The police may be getting involved. The F.A. are not helping them with their enquiries. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
