Reading's Rosenior: Coleman exit start of Fulham slide

Reading fullback Liam Rosenior says former club Fulham's slide began with the departure of manager Chris Coleman.

He told the Evening Standard: "A lot of people were not happy at certain decisions that were made at the club and it has put Fulham into a lot of trouble.

"It upsets me because I was at Fulham for years. The people who were there last year were under-estimated.

"For the first half of the season we were always nine or 10 points away from the relegation zone. Then we were losing away games and drawing at home, that is what got us into trouble.

"We were still five points clear of relegation with five games to go when Chris Coleman went, and that was a big shock to everyone. That really did effect the club, that decision."
