Five Thoughts: Arsenal 1-1 Fulham

There was no celebratory slice of Cuthbert the Caterpillar on Scott Parker's 100th game in charge of Fulham. The Whites held their breath, Mikel Arteta's party-crashing Arsenal blew out the candles. No Premier League triumph in the capital in 23 attempts, no victory at either the Emirates or Highbury in the league, ever, and as we digest a draw that stings like another deflating defeat, we're now pondering the possibility of a null and void season, safe for another year in the top-flight, thanks to the timely, albeit despicable announcement of the European Super League.

Five Thoughts: Fulham 0-1 Wolverhampton Wanderers

As the cameraman panned to the touchline, fixed firmly on Scott Parker's grimace, we all felt it. Shocked to the core at the sight of an oily steroid specimen blast his first goal in 16 months, as well as a late, crushing winner for Nuno Espírito Santo's Wolverhampton Wanderers, hearts sunk, hands cradled heads and even the most opinionated of fans was left utterly speechless, staring forlornly at the patterns on living room rugs.

Five Thoughts: Aston Villa 3-1 Fulham

Scott Parker's "Putney River Rats" were drowned out in the closing stages by Dean Smith's resilient European contenders and with Newcastle United scrounging a last-ditch draw against Tottenham Hotspur, salvation is still marginally out of reach, shelved by a north African assailant and an England debutant at Villa Park. It all went a little wrong for the visitors, jeers soon muted cheers and on Easter Sunday, a day of sweet rejoicing and diabetes, a sour taste loitered in the mouths of Fulham's gobsmacked disciples.

Five Thoughts: Fulham 1-2 Leeds United

The better team won and that's basically all there is to it. Standing with Scott Parker's post-match presser, Fulham were vastly disappointing, discouraging and we deserved absolutely nothing from Friday evening's 2-1 defeat against Marcelo Bielsa's Leeds United. Whenever the Peacocks play, they're accompanied by a media wank fest but in SW6, as they registered their first victory in the capital in 17 attempts, the plaudits were fully merited.

Five Thoughts: Fulham 0-3 Manchester City

Fuelled by superstition, Fulham lined up against Manchester City with the ambition of withholding Pep Guardiola's runaway league leaders but, as the narrative indulgently scripted a routine 3-0 victory for the Citizens, perhaps Scott Parker will bin off that ghastly quilted overcoat of his and start afresh on Friday evening.
