Fulhamerica

COYW! That's Fulham talk for "Come on You Whites!" Somehow, someway, Fulhamerica kept itself in the English Premier League on a 75th minute goal in the final game of the season.

Now Clint, Eddie, ‘Los and the rest of the guys can get to sleep knowing where they'll be next fall. The real question is where they'll be this summer?

As Adam Spangler reports, Fulham's sprint to the finish didn't always involve the prettiest soccer, but the effort was there (check this commercial if you need proof). And, as it turned out that was enough for a miracle finish.

Deuce had another solid showing-especially in the defensive third-and officially completed his first full season in Europe. It's been time well spent; he definitely looks to be on his way to becoming a more complete player. With a few months to settle down and catch his breath, EJ might soon be there alongside him.

What's this about the UEFA Cup? Fulham's got a shot, and if it works out, there's a shot they might run into Tim Howard and Everton or Mike Bradley's current squad, Heerenveen.

Congrats West London. See you next year in the EPL!

Deuce Delivers

With his first goal for Fulham, in his first season in England, Deuce Dempsey resuscitated an entire organization. After three months without a victory and a less than successful season, all of Craven Cottage was looking for a lifeline. It came in the form of an audacious Texan slicing towards the goal box, hitting a no-look thru-pass to an overlapping teammate on the outside, and then finishing his near post run to loft home the only goal of the afternoon. Funny how the relegation system works. A pretty little 1-2 and Fulham saved itself millions of dollars in sponsorship money and the chance to wipe its slate clean and start all over in the fall. If you knew nothing about the struggles the team had been enduring throughout the season, it would have been easy to mistake the win for a Championship derby. Americans can’t play real football? What was that? As midseason acquisition fighting for a starting spot, Deuce ensured himself that there’s much more Premiership to come.
