I prefer to leave score forecasting and tipping rounds to other Fulham forums, predictions have a horrible way of coming back to bite you. However, let me just say I am as optimistic about the new season as any since we were elevated to the Premiership.

There's been no panic rush into the transfer market - to be honest there's precious little value around - and Hughes seems largely contented with the excellent squad he has inherited. Mark I'm sure has the good sense to make things 'business as usual' at the Cottage. We are not easy to beat at home and only a modest uplift in our away form should see us comfortably attain mid-table. One or two quality additions to the squad would still be welcome, and hurry back from injury Andy J.

However, just for fun I am going to stick my neck out and say this IS the season we at last do something in one of the 2 domestic cup competitions. Well, if we can get to the final of the Europa League???

A big shout out and well done to all who are making the effort to get to Bolton on Sat. Let's make some NOISE because there really is only ONE Fulham FC!
