Jol: Fulham are not encouraging bids for Dempsey
In his pre-match press conference ahead of Friday’s FA Cup clash against Everton, Fulham manager Martin Jol was again discussing transfer rumours. He ruled out the sale of strikers Zamora and Johnson who have been attracting interest from elsewhere, and you can see why after their scintillating link-up play in the second half of the 5-2 win over Newcastle last [...]
Fulham 5-2 Newcastle: Fan Reaction
After one of the most dismal performances I have seen from Fulham in a single half, it seemed impossible that The Whites would be able to pull off such a great result, let alone win the game. The first half was clearly Newcastle’s, with Fulham’s rigid and incoherent formation allowing Newcastle long periods of possession, which they could have yielded a greater [...]
Jol: Fulham have the money to spend
Fulham boss Martin Jol has stated the club do have money to spend this window, but only if the right players are available: “We never have a conversation about money” Jol said, talking of his relationship with chairman Mohammed Al Fayed. “If we come up with a good player, he will sign it off.

Fulham vs Newcastle: Team News and Preview
Fulham boss Martin Jol has confirmed Fulham will be without Moussa Dembele (hip) for this weekend’s game against Newcastle. Dembele was substituted just before half-time during last weekend’s disappointing defeat to Blackburn Rovers at Ewood Park. Fulham will also be without goalkeeper Mark Schwarzer (back) and striker Orlando Sa (hamstring) for the tie. Newcastle have really impressed [...]

Fulham were linked with a move for the mobile forward earlier in the week, but a bid of £3m plus performance related add-ons would not have been seen as enough by the [...]
Maxi on his way
Reports out of Italy are suggesting that Fulham have agreed a €1.5m loan deal for Catania striker Maxi Lopez. He is yet to agree to the move but is expected to within the next few days. The news comes after Fiorentina had a £6.5m bid for the Argentinian accepted by their Serie A rivals. It [...]
Rosicky a £3m Fulham target?
A bit late to the party with this one, but various news sources suggesting Fulham are interested in signing midfielder Thomas Rosicky from Arsenal for £3m. Perhaps the reason I’m so late reporting this is that it must be pure fabrication. Why would Martin Jol, who is desperate to reduce the average age of the [...]
Blackburn boss Kean confirms AJ bid
Sky Sports are reporting that Blackburn manager, and former Fulham assistant manager, Steve Kean has admitted interest in Fulham forward Andy Johnson. When asked about the interest in the striker Kean admitted: “We respect Fulham and we don’t want to disclose what level that’s at. That will remain private between the two clubs. That’s one [...]
