Fulham stays up

Congratulations to Fulham for staying up in the Premier League.  To win four of their final five games, including three consecutive away wins, in the face of certain relegation is an impressive escape act.  And it would not have been good for American soccer's image to have a club with five American players demoted from the top flight. 

In the end, however, two of the three relegated clubs have Americans playing on them: Reading (Hahnemann and Convey) and Derby (Feilhaber and Lewis).
