Bullard: I can't explain Fulham struggles

Jimmy Bullard admits Fulham's draw at Derby felt like a defeat.

He told fulhamfc.com: "Of course I'm happy when I'm out there playing but a draw against Derby felt like a loss. No disrespect but I felt that we should have beaten Derby but we didn't and that was gutting for us.

"It's not myself I think about, it's the team, the result and our position and I'm gutted. We created more chances, and it felt like a more attacking game but to concede the last one was a killer because we thought we should have won that one.

"I've never been able to put my finger on why we're not getting the wins away from home, at the end of the day it's just another football pitch and it shouldn't matter where it is."

Over 2,000 Fulham supporters made the journey to Pride Park last weekend and Bullard paid tribute to the fantastic support the players have received as they battle to secure the Club's Premier League status for an eighth successive season.

"The fans at Derby were awesome. I've always said that they are fantastic but in the last few games they have been different class and they deserve better."
