• Jol sacked by Fulham 24 hours after damaging loss • Leap of faith by Shahid Khan to appoint Rene Meulensteen Martin Jol’s parting shot to the press after Fulham’s 3-0 defeat by West Ham on Saturday afternoon had something fittingly elegiac about it. “I’ll see you soon … I hope,” Jol said as he disappeared down the nearest corridor.
