Summary

Maybe this was to be expected but that doesn't make it any less agonising. Fulham succumbed to the annual routine of losing to Manchester United on their home turf. George is joined by Drew, Adam and Charlie as we unpack what was a truly painful night under the lights.

In part one, we ask the age-old question of, how did Manchester United get away with it... again? Seemingly a draw would have been a fair result but a deflected Martinez goal saw Man United collect three points. The defeat leaves Fulham fans debating whether a new talisman is needed to ensure that some of these chances are netted rather than seeing yet more opportunities get skied over the bar. Do we dare return to wondering whether we have sufficently replaced our old Serbian friend?

We turn to your listener questions in part two which are overwhelming driving home that ticket prices and the Ali Mac administration are still an important talking point. The sea of half and half scarves speak for themselves as the atmosphere at Craven Cottage continues to be highlighted. A Man United fixture will inevitably encourage this debate but we air our concerns about a deflating culture at the club.
