Clinton Dempsey
An opening day win, on the road??

For the first time in six years, Fulham won their opening day match, and for the first time since we were in the league that win was on the road.
Dempsey’s deflected shot off Zamora was enough for Fulham to win 1-0 over Pompey in a rather uneventful, if not typical away, match. Standard Hodgson.
Portsmouth occasionally [...]

Well, looks like Harkes and I should probably shut our mouths after all.
I was just concerned while he was downright upset that Clint’s performance for the Yanks was a little lacking. Yet according to FIFA’s Castrol Index, he’s the second best midfielder behind Kaka.
For an explanation, here’s a cool video. But long story short, [...]

As I’ve been watching the USMNT embarrass itself over the past few weeks, I’ve realized something:
This isn’t the Fulham Clint Dempsey we’re seeing in the Red, White, and Swoosh.
The Fulham Clint doesn’t do silly tricks, dribbles, passes etc for the sake of doing silly tricks, dribbles, passes etc — especially ones that lead to fast [...]

Note the second name of the two authors.
In case us fans, or this blog, didn’t need another reason to love the Aussie, turns out he wrote a childrens book (which evidently isn’t new news), replete with it’s own website, and teaching tools therein.
The book, the first of three, is about Edward ‘Megs’ Morrison who moves [...]
Dempsey, the best Christmas gift

Five points for the Christmas period? Well, guess I was right after all. As the puppet would say, “Fantastic!”
The victory over Boro was to be expected. The draw at White Hart Lane was a mixed bag — glad to get a point, but frustrated we couldn’t get three. Drawing against Chelsea at the death thanks [...]
A point at the Lane

Wow, turns out my prediction was correct.
Soccernet is describing it as a bore fest, but the match was really anything but. There were some clear chances that neither Fulham nor Spurs executed, but the two also didn’t blow it.
With Baird subbing for the sick Hangeland, my pulse raced each time Tottenham threw men forward. But [...]
Best game of the season, for three seasons

With the exception of last year’s ManCity Miracle, the last time Fulham scored more three or more goals — and won — was February 11, 2006 when they beat West Brom 6-1.
Although I wasn’t a fan of even footy then, I’m sure today’s 3-0 victory over Boro was equally as dominant.
The MOTM must go [...]

Woy’s comments for the BBC ring true: it was one of the best performances of the season.
And it wasn’t because of Clint Dempsey starting, which is a celebration in of itself.
Its because there were teeth up front, the one area of the pitch we have struggled in so much so far. Although he hasn’t [...]

At about this time last year, Fulham had a terrible habit of conceding late goals, and sacrificing points.
Yet today the club showed some grit and determination to snatch a point out of the jaws of defeat. And by the club I’m really referring to two substitutes: Erik “Iceman” Nevland and Clint Dempsey.
The additions of [...]

I’m not sure if the other authors of this blog are planning on writing, but since we don’t communicate, and it would be a crime to not post about this weekend’s win, I figured I’d step in the breach.
First, let’s not get carried away. We beat Arsenal, yes. But, this Arsenal [...]
