Great job, Marcus! He's definitely gotten more mature, working for a strong(er) teammate instead of always trying on his own! Great to take 3rd in Strade, although he'd probably have won that one had he been in top shape.

+4 Recovery, of course. Let the GTs come!

Monthly Review

The press has dubbed it the worst collapse in professional football in over a decade. You can't argue with them. Title hopes gone and now on the outside looking in on the promotion playoffs. Six points in 12 games. Sickening.

But, we still have six league games left to save our season. Rise from the ashes. We need a hero to emerge and guide Fulham back into the light. Why not me?

Match Day #41 at Brentford (14-13-13, 55 Points, 11th)
April 5, 2025
Kamara and Abraham are tied in the Golden Boot race with 27 goals.

Match Day #42 vs. Derby County (8-14-19, 38 Points, 23rd)

Football or Cycling: Marcus Diamond has been asked by both his teams to make a decision in advance if Fulham makes the playoffs. The second leg of the first playoff round would happen during the Tour of California.

(Option A): Football. Stay in England to play the football playoff game.

(Option B): Cycling. Go stateside to race the Tour of California.

Oh and if they make the playoff final, that's when the boost gets used.

Bahamas sounds good.

And congrats on that great AGR win! A shame the cobbled races didn't work out better, but I guess Marcus wasn't in top shape yet?

+4 Recovery and a Caribbean nation works for me as well.

Marcus was gradually building form throughout the month (still not top shape yet), just got very lucky with daily form at AGR (+3). Garner really lucky out with +5 daily form at LFW as well. Shame she couldn't capitalize with a win.

Also, wanted to note that Diamond's big frame makes narrow roads a challenge to maneuver. Getting better at it but he occasionally loses energy just battling to stay at the front of the peloton.

Monthly Review

Last game of the league season ahead, here is the current situation.

Win: Secures a playoff spot.

Draw: Secures a playoff spot if Ipswich Town loses at 17th Preston North End. Or Blackburn Rovers draws or loses at 11th Swansea City.

Loss: Secures a playoff spot if Blackburn Rovers doesn't win at Swansea City, plus Barnsley doesn't beat us by more than seven goals.

Speaking of which, our opponent Barnsley is the hottest team in the league right now having won six games in a row — gaining 37 points in its last 15 games.

We have already faced them twice this season: 5-2 defeat in the Third Round of the Carabao Cup and a revenge 6-3 win on the road right before Christmas.

One last note on the thrilling Golden Boot race. Fulham strikers Aboubakar Kamara (29 goals) and Timmy Abraham (28) are within striking distance of tying Glenn Murray's modern-day record of 30 goals in a single Sky Bet season.

A press-packed regular season finale awaits! Playoffs lurking in the distance...

Match Day #46 vs. Barnsley (20-15-10, 70 Points, 8th)
May 4, 2025
Craven Cottage is packed to the brim for this ultra important fixture.

Yeah, congrats on that end of the season! Marcus really seems to step up lately, getting a few assists and even some goals Smile

Jumping Reach is the obvious one to unlock here!

I would say that +1 really helped in that final, and yeah, Jumping Reach
