It took a magic moment from the Captain and came at the cost of an injury to Kenny Tete, but Fulham kept their recent unbeaten streak in the league going at Crystal Palace on New Year's Day

Next up, our first game at the Cottage in 2026 as Liverpool come to visit. Last season an aggressive, front foot display dismantled the Champions-to-be at but can we repeat the trick with a squad ravaged by injuries and AFCON?

Join Sam and Sarge as they discuss TC's worldie, Cuenca's heinous head injury, Kenny's hamstring, January Transfer rumours and much more in another Fulham Focus double bill

And they'll discuss Arne Slot's stuttering title defence and break down where Fulham vs Liverpool will be won and lost with a Kopite who used to work the turnstiles at Craven Cottage, Ben Cooke

Not so long ago, Fulham fans were fearing the worst with the side sitting just above the relegation zone - but back-to-back 1-0 victories have suddenly catapulted the Whites to within three points of the European spots.

So how has Marco Silva changed the vibe at Craven Cottage? Have we actually played well while getting the job done? And could the turnaround continue as we get ready to face recent nemesis Oliver Glasner and his Eagles?

Join us for another Fulham Focus double header as Kish discusses two London derbies; In part one, he is joined by Wiggo to make sense of Saturday's win at West Ham. And then in the second half (42:00), Sam is back and together they preview a New Year’s Day encounter at Selhurst Park with Tampa’s smartest Crystal Palace fan, analyst Pat Rosanio.

Following a win and a clean sheet against Nottingham Forest, Fulham are 10 points clear of both our (not Boxing Day) opponents and the relegation zone.

But can we repeat the trick and bag another three points at the London Stadium to make it a truly merry Christmas? 

In this festive Fulham Focus, Kish is joined by Luke to wrap up our Forest review and preview West Ham away. They discuss an improved defence, the impact of TC off the bench, Kevin’s progress, and Raul’s record-equalling penalty. 

And they talk to Dan Woffenden from the West Ham Way about the prospects of Nuno saving the Hammers from the drop, and whether Adama Traore really could be part of that mission.

Following late heartbreak in the Carabao Cup, Fulham must dust themselves down - but having suffered yet another set-piece capitulation at St James' Park, that will also mean sharpening up for the visit of a Nottingham Forest side now managed by Sean Dyche.

So join Sam (live from a late-night Christmas party in Glasgow) and Kish (live from an evening at home with his cats) as they discuss a Craven Cottage clash under the lights, and attempt to answer questions such as have we finally learnt some lessons? How might Marco Silva solidify us at the back? And would another home loss leave us looking nervously over our shoulder?

There's also chat with football writer and Forest fan David Marples, who not only provides the lowdown on the differences between Nuno-ball, Ange-ball and Dyche-ball, but also tells the stories behind his recent induction into the 92 Club.

After waiting 74 years for a win at Turf Moor, Harry Wilson magic and Bernd Leno heroics saw Fulham overcome the Burnley curse by the very finest of margins

But in our dodgy defending and poor game management, did Scott Parker's side show up some frailties that need correcting?

And with a midweek trip to St James's Park the only thing standing in our way of a Carabao Cup semi final, can we regroup without our AFCON stars to take a step closer to cup glory?

Kish breaks down all of that and more with the most vibey social media double act since Bassey and Iwobi: Dylan Chavasse and (Mr Fulham South Africa himself) James Preston

Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

After two home defeats in quick succession, maybe an away game is what's required for Marco Silva and his Fulham side to get back on track.

The only trouble is it's a trip to Turf Moor that awaits, and that's a stadium the Whites haven't won at in 33 attempts since April 1951.

Nevertheless, Sam and Luke sit down to ponder whether a Christmas miracle really is possible, and wonder exactly what our trio of Super Eagles can offer before they depart for AFCON.

Meanwhile, teenage social media star Jacob Horsfall brings the Burnley perspective, explains how the hosts can be got at, and endears himself to the Focus gang by putting the boot into Scott Parker.

Will Fulham ever beat Crystal Palace at home again?

For some of Sunday‘s encounter it looked like it may finally be happing. But a combo of Samuel Chukwueze’s toenail, some questionable subs, and our trademark set-piece frailty struck.

So join Sam, Kish and Luke to get the latest Cottage capitulation to Oliver Glasner out of your system.

The gang lament our soft defending, marvel at Harry Wilson’s one-man Goal of the Season mission, salute the continued Emile Smith Rowe renaissance, and ponder if our season is at risk of being derailed by key AFCON departures.

Have you recovered from Tuesday night yet? Sam and Kish certainly haven’t! 

So join them for a special Fulham Focus double bill to discuss the maddest of mad nights at the Cottage in recent years and work out what it means for our clash with Crystal Palace when we return there on Sunday.  

In Part 1, they’re joined by Stuart Lutes to decide if we should be more alarmed by Fulham’s defending or delighted by our attacking against Man City and wax lyrical about Samuel Chukwueze and Alex Iwobi

In Part 2 (42:50), Rich from ‘Eagle-Eyed Football’ gives us the lowdown on this weekend’s opponents as we try to work out if Marco Silva will finally find the blueprint to beating Oliver Glasner at the Cottage.

Fulham secured back to back wins after a golden start to the game away at Tottenham

And with Pep’s City headed to the Cottage under the lights on Tuesday could more excitement be on the way?

Join Kish for a Fulham Focus quickfire double which is hopefully as enjoyable as Tete and Wilson at Spurs!

In part one, Matt and Morgan review a glorious and long overdue away win after Marco Silva outthought Thomas Frank early and the Fulham defence gritted it out late.

And in part two Bailey Wynne from the Sky Blue Times comes on to discuss how exactly the Whites might want to approach taking on a Man City side doing things rather differently this season

Fulham head to Tottenham on Saturday night to face a familiar foe. 

But with Marco Silva’s men on a one-game winning streak, and Thomas Frank’s Spurs wobbling after a painful North London derby, can we pile the pressure on?

Join Sam and Kish as they discuss this battle between a Fulham team who can’t win away and a Spurs side who can’t win at home. 

They also get the lowdown on all things Tottenham from ‘An Echo of Glory’ podcast contributor James Robbins, and wade into the growing culture war surrounding Joao Palhinha’s role in their team.

The world just seems a better place after a Fulham win, doesn't it?

Join Sam, Kish and Tristan to celebrate Raul Jimenez's goal poacher instincts, Samuel Chukwueze's perfect cameo, Emile Smith Rowe's newfound running power, and a performance from Marco Silva's men that may get the confidence flowing once again in SW6.

Meanwhile, Kish gets his tactical hat on to examine why our midfield rejig in the second half against Sunderland paid dividends. Tristan gets his financial hat on to explain why Fulham are one of the clubs who have some work to do before the new SCR rules come in next season. And Sam gets his hangover hat on to try and get through the episode without dropping a clanger.

It's good to be back, right?!

Well, with Rodrigo Muniz out until the New Year, our heartbroken Nigerian boys still jet lagged, Joachim Andersen recovering from Scott McTominay's overhead kick, Raul Jimenez still inexplicably playing for Mexico, and Marco Silva's future as unclear as ever, maybe it isn't?

Fulham return to Craven Cottage on Saturday in desperate need of a post-international break win against high-flying Sunderland - but in coming up against a newly-promoted side defying the odds while playing on the break under a tactically-flexible manager, the Whites could be forgiven for thinking they're coming up against themselves from 2022-23.

Sam and Kish are joined by Sunderland fan and journalist Ethan Todd to break down our battle with the Black Cats and to work out if either side can expect their fortunes to change as the Premier League heads into its busiest phase of the season.

A passive performance away at Everton on Saturday led to what Marco Silva called a ‘deserved’ defeat.

But with five losses in our last six games and the worst record in 2025 of any team yet to have sacked their manager, is he under pressure?

After a terrible opening 45 minutes, have we finally seen the back of the Berge-Lukic midfield pivot? 

Did we get an all too-brief glimpse of our best attacking line-up in the second half at the Hill Dickinson Stadium?

And for the first time in forever, is it frankly a relief to reach an international break?

Join Sam, Wiggo and Kish in your latest Fulham Focus podcast as they discuss all that while trying to work out whether it’s officially time to worry about a relegation dogfight.

After finally working out how to win at Goodison Park, the Whites head to Everton’s new home hoping to prove that last Saturday's success wasn’t a one-off.

Will Marco Silva continue his experiment with Alex Iwobi in midfield? 

Can Kenny Tete show Everton what they’re missing by locking down Jack Grealish?

And which flying wingers should Fulham deploy to get at David Moyes' limited full-backs?

Join Sam and Kish as they try to work all that out with Everton analyst Matt Smith, better known on X as @TacticallyMatt.

After four successive Premier League defeats, Fulham bounced back in the unlikeliest of fashions - by easing past relegation fodder at the Cottage.

And while Ryan Sessegnon was once again Wolves' hunter-in-chief, it was Alex Iwobi who stole the show in the deeper midfield role that his manager had suggested he couldn't play.

Sam is joined by Morgan and Don to dissect success in this six-pointer, while also discussing the Nigerian's increasing influence, Kevin's first PL start, and whether the club really can keep hold of the generational talent that is Own Goal.

A struggling Wolves side sitting bottom of the Premier League head to South West Six this weekend looking to kickstart their season. Sound familiar? 

We’ve all tried to forget last season’s 4-1 shocker at the Cottage, but as this game approaches the similarities are real and the flashbacks are traumatic. Surely Fulham wouldn't do that again? 

Join Sam and Kish as they try to work out how we can come out on top in this relegation six-pointer, while also getting the lowdown from Wolves fan Harry Mansell on just what has gone wrong for our visitors this campaign.

It’s the hope that kills you!

After hinting at at unlikely result, Fulham threw it away at Newcastle on Saturday to succumb to a fourth successive defeat.

Error prone at the back and stagnant in attack, is our place just outside of the relegation zone more than just a case of tough fixtures and injuries conspiring against us? Are Marco Silva’s selection choices too stubborn to get us out of the mire? And with a cup tie before a must-win game with Wolves, who or what can change the tune?

Kish is joined by Tristan and Dylan in the aftermath of St James' Park heartbreak to discuss all this and much more.

A patched up Fulham head to Tyneside this weekend to take on Eddie Howe's Newcastle, hoping to avoid a fourth Premier League defeat in a row.

But who is actually fit enough to take on Anthony Gordon, Nick Woltemade and the rest of the Toon Army?

Do we have a plan to combat their mighty central midfield?

And can we find a winger who isn't Adama Traore to have a run at stand-in left-back Dan Burn?

Sam and Kish endeavour to answer all the key questions ahead of the match with the help of analyst and Newcastle fan Meron, best known for his 'A Game of Two Halves' YouTube channel.

Recorded before both Sean Dyche did the honourable thing and the AWS outage obliterated Fulham Focus HQ, Kish, Alex and a returning Boney sat down to discuss the concerning reports linking Marco Silva with the then-vacant Nottingham Forest manager's job.

Once they had stopped fretting, the trio looked back on Saturday's narrow defeat to league leaders' Arsenal while lamenting modern football, saluting a second-string backline, and pondering Raul Jimenez's curious new role as a box-crashing central midfielder.

After an annoying absence of proper football, Fulham get back to business with a visit from league leaders Arsenal. What could possibly go wrong?!

Well, there's our notoriously patchy form after international breaks, our blunt attack coming up against the best defence around, and our achilles heel potentially being exploited by Set Pieces FC.

But then again, is this not exactly the sort of fixture Marco Silva's men love to surprise us in?

Join Sam and Kish as they try to work if there is any reason to believe that we can leave our visitors in their happy place (second best) on Saturday night, with opposition insights on Mikel Arteta's men from Sky Sports statistician and Arsenal season ticket holder Paul.
