Who would we have beaten?

Fulham away the only real possibility. No chance we'd have beaten Liverpool or avoided a thrashing today.

And Hughton's record away was?

There's no rational justification for thinking we'd have done any better.

        have to agree to disagree - always felt we had a chance of a point or 3 at home (n/m) (NCFC) - South_West_Canary, Apr 26, 19:53:33
        
        and it was the same on the day against Liverpool? (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Apr 26, 19:55:30
        
        I and I think most were baffled with how we set up & it ultimately cost us (NCFC) - South_West_Canary, Apr 26, 19:57:43
        
        Well, I don't deny I was unhappy with Adam's appointment. (NCFC) - phrankin, Apr 26, 19:59:36

        exactly (NCFC) - bullsch, Apr 26, 19:48:03
