Martin Jol feels lonely after latest defeat

 
Agency2 November 2013

Fulham fans expressed their anger from the stands as the club stumbled to their sixth defeat of the season.

"Jol out" was chanted on several occasions against United, making his position at the helm look increasingly precarious.

Asked how he felt on the touchline after Moyes' side scored their three goals, the Dutchman said: "Lonely, very lonely.

"We had aspirations, we were ambitious before the game. We really wanted to do well.

"I've got a great team with a great team spirit. Dimitar Berbatov was skippering us again, so he wanted to win as a captain.

"The players wanted to win for him and maybe a little bit for me and for the club. To concede goals like that looked horrendous."

As if a third straight loss was not bad enough, Fulham may well now lose Sascha Riether to a ban after a late stamp on Adnan Januzaj was not punished by referee Lee Probert - an incident missed by Moyes and Jol.

"That would be disappointing," Jol said about a potential ban. "If it is true, then we have to talk to him.

"I have got some good back-up players as well, so that is not a disaster. The result is a disaster."
