Manning

[Risc]

Bennett’s legs have gone by the looks of it.

Spot on which begs the question why he came on instead of Burns.

Bennett against the divisions best attack was never going to end well

Burns surely needs to start Saturday.

It does look like Bennett's legs have gone, which is weird considering he's only 31. Hopefully it's just rustiness but he was terrible there's no getting away from that yesterday.

Did Manning let the team down last night? Absolutely 100%! Does that mean he needs to get out of the club? Don't be bloody ridiculous. OK, so that's his second red card, but unlike last night for me he was unlucky to see his marching orders against Blackburn.

Also, what the hell are the ones saying we made the same old mistakes last night on about? We were decent until Manning decided to do that terrible challenge. Everything that happened after that can be written off as far as I'm concerned. Doing a Blackburn was never on the cards against a team like Fulham who are toying with the whole league like a teenager playing against toddlers.

One other thing, the post match inquests on here and more so on Twitter are starting to grate on me. Every win and people are on about making the playoffs, every defeat and this is the worst team in twenty years, or in our history, and it's all sending me off my bloody rocker. Get some bleeding perspective and balance, might as well ask a weathercock for its opinions on our season for heaven's sake.

Well said. Skippy is one of those who barely has anything to say after a win, but is all over the place when we lose with OTT comments. Each to their own I guess.

He let his team mates down with a silly challenge. Whether it was a red or not is debatable. However, the way the team folded in the second half was a disgrace. When you have ten men you have to dig in, stay in the game and play as a team.

If Mannings tackle was as high and hard as people are making out, Harry Wilson wouldn’t have got up and walked off. I’m not saying it’s a great tackle by any means , but it was a booking at best. To suggest we get rid of him is f*cking nonsensical though, blokes an Irish international ffs.

If its getting on your nerves it's probably best to log off lovely.

He's been cràp all season, don't think it's to do with his legs going, more to do with not giving a toss and just prepared to sit on his grotesque salary.

It's one hell of a championship attack. 89 goals to date, the next best is 53 so they're so far ahead of the field It's astonishing. The record is 108 goals in a season which they'll surely break?
Fulham's last 6 seasons have been down, up, down, up, down and now up again undoubtedly. Can they actually stay up next season?
We are what we are, far too good to go down and nowhere near good enough to go up. It's going to be an important summer for Martin and the club because we need to see real progress next season.

Great to read that it wasn’t a red card, Manning will be welcomed back gratefully after his red card is rescinded.

Obviously a joke yes ?
I was under the impression straight reds cannot be rescinded ?

Straight reds can be. Two yellows can’t be. This one won’t be.

Sorry Airdale.
I guess you were serious?
I didn't know it could rescinded

Another thing I wonder about, is the red card for the way the player goes in with his studs showing, or is it a combination of that plus the contact on the other player?

 

[Badlands]

Manning has always been a liability.
Routinely gives away free kicks in dangerous positions, fails to keep shape and doesn't track back.
The only surprise for me is he's not received more cards.
