Fulham 3-0 Wolves: Fan Fury Erupts
Grey clouds rolled over Craven Cottage just as the match kicked off. By full time it was raining, Wolves were beaten 3-0, and the mood was bleak. The away end travelled in numbers, hoped for a response, and got another punch in the gut inside 10 minutes. The theme of the day was simple and stark: this cannot go on.
Post-Match Atmosphere at Craven Cottage
It felt grim before a ball had been kicked. After the whistle, it felt worse. The reaction was raw, emotional and honest. The recurring feeling was that the team on the pitch did not reflect the club in the stands.
Big away following, hope crushed early, again
1-0 down inside 10 minutes after a familiar mistake
Players booed by their own fans, but huge applause for unused favourites
A mood shift from anger to weary resignation
The Shocking Line-up and a Tactical Mess
Craig did not hold back. The selection was a “clueless disgrace” and it felt like a disaster waiting to happen. Momentum from midweek was binned before kick-off. It looked like the plan was to contain and survive. Instead, Wolves surrendered the initiative, invited pressure, and wilted.
Brian was stunned to see what amounted to six defenders on the pitch from the start. It was even more baffling after the way the previous game had finished, when impact players turned the tide late on. Those same players were either benched or ignored.
Key selection flashpoints called out in the stands:
Form players benched: names repeatedly praised for midweek impact, including Moller Wolfe, Jackson, Tchatchuoa, Joao Gomes, and Andre, were left out from the start. One of them scored twice in midweek, and still did not get on.
Hoever struggled badly, beaten on the outside several times in the first half. Fans questioned how he starts here if he could not hold a place in a mediocre Championship side.
Krejci checked back instead of picking the forward pass, with the forward run free and the defence set.
Strand Larsen drifted across the line and offered nothing in behind. The verdict was scathing.
It drew dark comparisons to the final days of Bruno Lage, when square pegs were jammed into round holes. The team looked disjointed. There was no balance, no creativity, no plan to win a football match. It was rigid and reactive.
Rumours of a Lost Dressing Room and a Fanbase on Edge
Craig said Vitor Pereira has allegedly lost the dressing room. It cannot be verified, but the line-up did little to calm that noise. Why leave out the in-form players? Why start a set of defenders and hope for the best?
Emma observed that it looked like the ones starting are the ones still behind the manager, and those frozen out are not. It fits the pattern. It also fits the results.
Fans Sending a Clear Message
The Wolves fans were magnificent, even at 3-0 down in the rain. They kept singing. They backed the badge. But they also sent a pointed message. There were loud chants for Joao Gomes and Andre, and there was huge applause for those unused players at the end.
Songs, Nostalgia, and a Protest in Disguise
The away end belted out “Si Señor” for Raul. A love song to a hero.
Old favourites like Robbie Dennison got a chorus too.
It felt like a love letter to the past, and a plea to the present. Fans cannot identify with this team, but they still love the club and the players who gave them joy.
Vitor Pereira’s Words vs. Wolves’ Reality
Pereira keeps saying Wolves must stop showing two faces and play for 90 minutes. It has become a hollow line. There are brief spells that give hope, like the second half at Chelsea, then the next game strips it away.
The biggest mistake today, and the one that broke faith for many, was not starting Gomes or Andre. It felt like the manager threw the dice, went all in on an unusual set-up, and watched it come up the wrong colour. The shape had no attacking thrust. The midfield did not link. The forwards had scraps.
There has not been a Premier League win since 26 April. Whatever goodwill and early-season credit there was has gone.
Even after going down to 10 men, there were no excuses. Fulham had lost four in a row and were nervy. They did not need to be good to beat Wolves. Wolves rarely laid a glove, aside from a couple of late first-half moments.
Time’s Up: Calls For Pereira To Go Tonight
This was not a knee-jerk rant. It felt like a line in the sand. All three agreed: he has to go. He is a good bloke, he bonded with the fans, but this is not working. The choices are baffling, the players looked like strangers, and the form picks are frozen out.
Do it now. Chelsea are next, then there is an international break. There is no room for sentiment in football. The owners are not going to sell, and there is no sign that a new CEO is arriving. The only lever left is the head coach.
