Jol urges Fulham fans to get behind players

Fulham boss Martin Jol has urged fans to get behind the team.

Jol admits he was disappointed supporters jeered Bryan Ruiz during defeat to Manchester United.

He said: "I don't think you are under pressure against Liverpool or Manchester United. You are under pressure in your home games against teams who should lose points against us, for example Crystal Palace.

"We really felt some pressure (against them), not because of me but because of the result. We needed points and we managed to win that game. We played well.

"If they (the fans) are disappointed I can understand that. The only disappointing thing was with Ruiz. As long as we don't have the results they can (boo) me, but hopefully they will support the team. We are not in the best of situations, but we are not in the worst."
