Bullard: Fulham must win all six-pointers

Fulham midfielder Jimmy Bullard admits that The Cottagers will have to beat all of their relegation rivals to keep their survival chances alive.

Roy Hodgson's side are four points from safety, but face fellow strugglers Derby, Sunderland, Reading and Birmingham in their remaining seven games.

Bullard, who returned from a career-threatening knee injury last month, believes that the proverbial 'six-pointers' will decide their fate.

"We're looking at every game as winnable," he said. "We've got a lot of games coming up against teams around us, but it doesn't matter who our games are against, we've just got to go and get as many three points as we can."

Bullard, 29, added: "Hopefully come the end of the season the luck will turn right for us. I know it's a cliché for teams at the bottom to say that you don't get much luck when you're struggling, but I think we've been really unlucky this season. But you have to keep going don't you?"
