Name: Matt Boisclair
Age (If you want): 26
How long you’ve supported the club: Around 20 years

What was your pre-match predictions for the game (honestly)?
I would have been happy with a point before the game but with our away record I didn’t honestly expect a win despite my interview with the Match Program in which I predicted a Fulham win

Was the 1-1 score line a fair result in your eyes?
I felt we should really have finished you off while we had the chance. Had Healy scored and Kamara not had his goal disallowed then we would have been out of sight before you started to put us under pressure. That said, as the game headed into the latter stages Niemi ended up earning us a point with two great saves

Was it frustrating to concede a goal so late in the game? Especially against ten men?
We are used to it

Do you think Halford deserved to be sent off?
Yes, they were two deserved bookings and he left the referee little choice

Kamara seemed to score a perfectly decent goal, what was given against him?
Who knows what referee’s see these days. He has struggled for goals this season so its disappointing to see what seemed a perfectly good goal disallowed but to use the tired old cliché, that’s football

What did you think of your goal, I thought Gordon could have done better but I am a cynic.
If it had been Rooney curling one in to the top corner from that distance then we would still be hearing about it on the TV now. Simon Davies spotted the ‘keeper positioning himself for a cross so it was a superb piece of opportunism which was expertly executed in my eyes

We nearly signed Chris Baird in the summer but he came to you, how do you rate him?
Quite slow but solid defender who has come in for some stick from the supporters this season. Probably over priced at over £3 million but that was last summers transfer inflation for you. I still think he will come good

Do you like the way Lawrie Sanchez is styling your side?
I think he is living on a knife edge at the moment. We are difficult to beat but rarely win so the jury is still very much out

Credit to everyone who made the trip up north but do you wish you had a better away following? Do you think this contributes to your poor away record?
I used to go to all the away games but the players haven’t turned up for a few years so I am not bothering this season. I went to over 10 away’s last season and didn’t see one win. This year I went to Shrewsbury in the Carling Cup, saw us win so that’ll do me this season. I don’t think our away support has anything to do with the team’s performance and I very much expect a few away wins this season seeing as the side is completely different to the last two years which has seen us win just two Premiership matches away from the Cottage

What do you make of Roy Keane’s career as a Premier League manager so far?
Brief and over-hyped

Anyways are you optimistic for the rest of the season? Whereabouts do you think you’ll finish?
If we stay up I will be very happy. I don’t think you will need 40 points to stay up this year so that is a bonus

Who was your best player?
Niemi

Who was your worst player?
No-one

What did you think of Sunderland’s performance?
Didn’t turn up until late on but it still did the trick

Who was our best player?
Kenwyne Jones

Who was our worst player?
Greg Halford

Where do you think we’ll finish this season?
Hovering around the relegation zone with us

FA Cup:
Arsenal

Who’d win in a fight? Sanchez or Keane? And why?
Keane would probably just break his legs whilst he had his back turned

Thanks for your time
