If Bournemouth last week marked the end of Fulham's season - and quite possibly the end of the Marco Silva era - how should we feel about Wolves away on Sunday?Is it a total waste of time featuring two teams with little to play for in a game destined to finish 0-0?Is it a chance to look to the future and field exciting young talent like Josh King, who could drive us forward next season?Or is it actually a reminder of how fragile Premier League status can be with clubs on the cusp of Europe quickly finding themselves in relegation battles when they get things wrong?Join Sam and Kish as they discuss Wolves' miserable season with Gully AKA @MolineuxMusings and try to find reasons to be deeply invested in this end-of-season clash.And stick around for a lively part two in which they ponder whether Fulham should stick or twist with Marco Silva.

Ah how must it feel to be unbeaten for months, scoring goals for fun and safe in the knowledge that whilst your beloved manager is off, the club have a successor already in place?Bournemouth rock up to the Cottage full of confidence and in a coveted 6th place which *could* be enough for Champions League football next season.But despite the clash in vibes and in styles of play on the pitch - a win for Fulham would put us right in the mix for European football tooSo will it happen? Can our patient passing finally unlock some goals? And do we have the solidity and physicality to deal with a dynamic Bournemouth attack?Join Sam and Kish as they discuss this key clash at the Cottage with Cherries fan and friend of the pod James Musselwhite Hosted on Acast.

What a gutless capitulation of a performance from a team who seemed utterly unaware of how important this weekend could end up being when the season comes to an end...But enough about Villa's sorry performance against Tottenham, we've got a soft Fulham defeat at the Emirates to discuss!So join Kish and Dylan as they reluctantly interrupt your Bank Holiday weekend to ponder what Fulham's shambolic first half against Arsenal means for our run inWill Jedi ever recapture the force?Was Andersen quite simply the perfect opponent for Gyokeres?Should we have just left ESR at the Emirates?Can Fulham tighten up before a crunch European qualification 6-pointer against Bournemouth next weekend?And what on earth do we have left to try when it comes to fixing our lack of goals?All that and more on your Fulham Focus match review podcast Hosted on Acast.

Let's take a trip down memory lane to 2023-24. Bobby De Cordova-Reid is playing anywhere and everywhere and still popping up with goals. Andreas Pereira is a relentless nuisance. And Joao Palhinha is as deadly in the box as he is in the tackle.The upshot is four points from our two games against an Arsenal side, who ended up losing out on the Premier League title to Manchester City by just two pointsSo could Fulham shoot down the Gunners again when we go to the Emirates on Saturday evening?Join Sam and Kish as they discuss such a prospect with Arsenal fan and friend of the pod, Archie Gaskin.Are our opponents really bottling it?Has Mikel Arteta's 'pragmatic' football helped or hindered the hosts?Will being sandwiched between Champions League semi-finals against Diego Simeone's Atletico Madrid help our cause?And who are the Arsenal dangermen who could yet step up to hurt us?All that and more in this Fulham Focus Preview.

See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Make no mistake, it's been pretty drab lately.Fulham haven't scored in five of the last six games, and the only teams that we have netted against since the start of March are relegation fodder like Burnley and Tottenham.So, after the uneventful 0-0 draw at Brentford, what better than another Saturday lunchtime clash against Champions League-chasing Aston Villa?Join Sam and Kish as they try to work out who in this Fulham squad could possibly get us firing in front of goal again, let alone winning.They also discuss Villa's season, Unai Emery's reputation, and whether Morgan Rogers can continue to mug off xG with Dan Lambert from the Villa Park Podcast.And as silly season approaches, they reflect on the managerial merry-go-round and which of a former Brentford boss (Frank) and a former Chelsea boss (Rosenior) would be more welcome in the Craven Cottage dugout next season if there were to be a vacancy.All that and more in your home to Aston Villa preview.

We’ll be honest and say much like both sets of players on Saturday we nearly didn’t show up for this one!But fear not as Kish has got Dylan and Wiggo with him to ensure our hour or so breaking down Brentford 0-0 Fulham is comfortably more entertaining than anything we saw at the G-TechSo join them as they tackle the big questions like:Was that Bernd Leno’s best save yet?Have TC and Lukic earned starting status for the rest of the season?Despite Andersen and Castagne’s best efforts has Marco Silva rediscovered some solidity?And will Fulham ever score a goal again?All that, some deserved Paul Tierney and Brentford slander and some early shouts for potential managerial replacements if Marco is indeed off in this edition of Fulham Focus Hosted on Acast.

Just under a year ago, your exhausted but exhilarated hosts stumbled out of a suspiciously Lego-looking stadium together with their faith in Fulham and football restored.Fast forward to 2026 and the stage is set again - but can our Welsh wizard, club captain and the rest of the boys repeat the trick one more time?Join Sam and Kish as they look ahead to a West London Derby against a Bees side still buzzing annoyingly around the European qualification spots with help from opposition fan and host of the Ealing Road podcast, Mike JohnstonHow badly does Harry Wilson haunt Brentford dreams?Why is Michael Kayode so much more than a long throw merchant?Is Keith Andrews actually any good?And has Marco Silva learnt the necessary lessons from our last few games to get a big result here?All that and much more on this controversial Fulham Focus preview pod in which we fraternise with the enemy...

Fulham fans travelled to Liverpool on Saturday with high hopes that they could take advantage of their out-of-sorts hosts to score a rare Anfield away victory.Yet as soon as the team news dropped at 4.15pm, many visiting supporters felt the writing was on the wall.Is Antonee Robinson capable of ever recapturing his best form?Does the midfield have any bite without Sasa Lukic?With Oscar Bobb and Josh King starting, was it literally men against boys?Sam is joined by a dispirited Dylan and a sweary Tristan as they discuss a game that was up before it even began, while there's also the first examination of Fulham's finances after the club announced their latest figures.

Did that international break feel endless to anyone else?After a long hiatus Fulham are BACK and even if the time off only increased our managerial anxiety and FA Cup heartache, we have a chance this Saturday to achieve the rarest of things - a win against Liverpool at Anfield!With the Reds out of sorts, out of form and maybe distracted by trying to stop PSG turfing them out of the Champions League, could the Whites do it?Will Marco Silva win the tactical battle against a beleaguered Arne Slot?With Kenny Tete out, should we reshuffle the pack to keep Liverpool quiet?And who wants to step up and unleash their inner Harrison Reed by becoming an unlikely hero?To discuss all that and much more, Kish is joined by Morgs and Guy Drinkel from Anfield Index to provide your essential preview of Liverpool versus Fulham. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

At half-time, Fulham and Burnley had fully vindicated their status as being the only Premier League clubs playing on Saturday that weren’t live on TV.And by the time Joachim Andersen switched off to see us fall 1-0 behind on the hour mark, the sleepy apathy among fans had turned into active anger.But up stepped Josh King, Harry Wilson and Raul Jimenez to reignite our European ambitions and send us happily into the international break .So which performance in this game of two halves was the ‘real Fulham’?And have we learnt some important lessons about which players can be trusted to see us through the end-of-season run-in?Join Sam, Kish and Sarge as they attempt to work it all out while also discussing what on earth has happened to the Ricardo Pepi deal. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Burnley fans seem pretty convinced that their season is over. But is Fulham’s?After three games without either a win or goal, the Whites surely need a statement victory to ensure the business end of the campaign remains interesting. They have seemingly signed a striker at the very least - but Ricardo Pepi won't be able to help the scoring situation until August.So does Marco Silva have a plan that will stop this game from being the dull ‘last on Match of the Day’ non-event that so many of us expect?Join Sam and Kish as they try to work it all out while also offering a safe space to Burnley ‘Fanalyst’ Lee Cologne, who is currently enduring the authentic Scott Parker Premier League Experience (TM). Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Contrary to popular (or unpopular) belief, the season isn't over. Far from it! Fulham still have plenty to play for over the next ten weeks.Pride, for staters. And after a couple of horrible showings, Marco and the boys will want to prove that they're not 'on the beach' just yet.But travelling up to a Nottingham Forest side battling the drop, we're going to have to find the grit and cutting edge that has been missing of late.The question is will we? And who should we put our faith in to get us back on track?Or is the pull of a familiar end-of-season malaise and the banter timeline of relegating Tottenham just too much to resist?Join Sam and Kish as they break down a Sunday afternoon by the Trent with the help of Forest fan and Forza Garibaldi co-founder Greg Mitchell. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Ouch. Everything was looking up just a week ago! And now two frankly baffling losses later Fulham fans are wondering if our season is already over characteristically earlySo Kish and Boney are ready to have the chat that is raging online. Are you #MarcoIn or #MarcoOut? Was the manager's selection and slow substitutions to blame for our FA Cup exit?With all the focus on his future are the likes of Joachim Andersen and Emile Smith Rowe getting a free pass?And since when is the barometer for a good season at Fulham qualifying for Europe and/or winning a Cup?Much like Producer Don (who drops in as they chat!) let us know what you think and be sure to give us a review wherever you get your podcasts!

After Raul Jimenez struck twice at the Stadium of Light on Sunday, Fulham fans are ending February by looking up the league table.But if we had a pound coin for every time we had done that this season, then the Sunderland stewards would be very rich indeed.So will March be the month where the season starts to make sense, and can the Cottagers follow up their double against the Black Cats by beating Tottenham, West Ham, Nottingham Forest and Burnley for a second time?Join Sam, Dylan and Don as they discuss Raul's penalty prowess, the unfortunate timing of a crocked Kevin, and whether you actually have to dust off a passport for it to be accepted at European airports. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Only reigning champions Liverpool have managed to flee the Stadium of Light with three points this season so can Fulham spring a surprise to become the second?Or would getting out of the cauldron with a point be a good result?Join Sam and Kish as they break down our Sunday afternoon in the North East with Sunderland fan and football writer Ethan Todd, and ask the pertinent questions:After a decent showing away at another red-and-white-striped opponent in Stoke City, have the likes of Kevin, Harrison Reed and Oscar Bobb earned themselves a start in this one?How scared should we be of Mr Brobbey?And how much faith should we put in Tony Khan's recent comments regarding the future of Marco Silva?All that and more in this week's Fulham Focus Preview Pod.

Has a game every screamed apathy as much as Fulham's limp defeat at Manchester City in midweek?In this review, Sam takes aim at Sam Matterface, Sarge takes aim at Sander Berge, Kish takes aim at people overreacting online, and then all three of the gang take aim at VAR and Phil Foden when they finally force themselves to engage with this match.And once that dreariness is out of the way, it's full focus on the FA Cup as they ask whether Fulham can do it on a rainy afternoon in Stoke to give us something to dream of in the end-of-season run-in.Be sure to like, subscribe, and leave us a review wherever you get your pods for more Fulham Focus content.

They say football is a game of two halves - so which half of Fulham versus Everton should we read into for the rest of the season?The technical, creative excellence of the first, when only poor finishing and bad luck prevented us from being out of sight?Or the total bottling that followed the break, in which our opponents physicality made the usual suspects in the Fulham side look far too weak?So join Kish and Matt for another much-needed therapy session, and then stay as they attempt to cheer themselves up by discussing a midweek trip to to the Etihad Stadium with Manchester City fan, writer and podcaster Bailey Wynne, who also provides the ultimate guide to new boy Oscar Bobb.
