Podcast: Mulling Over Forest
13th February 2025
Sammy is joined by Dan Cooke on the Thursday Club as they take one last look back on a win against Wigan. As a reward for surviving a trip to the north-west, Fulham have drawn Manchester United in the fifth round of the FA Cup and there are mixed feelings. Premonitions of a majestic victory over Man United at Old Trafford is the optimistic option in comparison to the perhaps realistic expectation that Fulham will yet again succumb to a frustrating 1-0 defeat. The road to Wembley is never easy.
In part two, Sammy and Dan look forward to a tough fixture against Nottingham Forest at the Cottage. Assuming that Forest players and fans have recovered from an 11pm finish in Exeter, Fulham will have to change their mentality to face a Nuno side that have had an incredible season so far. The question still remains of whether Pereira or Smith Rowe should appear on the start sheet and if Muniz’s February form should be given a chance to flourish.
They also answer some of your listener questions. Should Alistair Mackintosh be the main focus of Fulham fans’ anger or should they be looking further up the business ladder? Is Castagne’s form faltering a little too much? And, Sammy and Dan make their head vs heart predictions for Fulham’s final league position and FA Cup run.
