Championship. Bottom club Fulham under pressure
 |
Social media channels were buzzing with demands for the Fulham coach to go after the 3-0 defeat at Reading saw the London side hit rock bottom.
To make things worse, the visitors finished with 10 men, adding to the pressure on manager Magath who only joined in February.
Reading won at a canter with a pair of headers from on-loan striker Glenn Murray, on his debut, and a late effort from Nick Blackman.
Fulham’s cause was rendered almost lost as early as the 18th minute, when former Leeds striker Matt Smith, also on debut, was sent off for a lunge on Hope Akpan.
Fulham endured a miserable end to last season, winning only three matches out of 12 under Magath as they were relegated from the Barclays Premier League.
Fulham have started the Championship similarly poorly, losing their opening four matches before earning their first point in a 1-1 draw with Cardiff.
It hardly got any better for them at the Madejski Stadium, where they were a goal down and a man down before having the chance to settle into the game.
