QPR V NOTTS FOREST THREAD. 21:43 - Sep 8 with 42169 viewsqpr_1968

i know its early.
can't wait for the day, even though we can't be there.
obviously don't know the teams.
but, my first game was against forest in 1968, won 2-1.
best game i've seen slaughter some one, 1984, 3-0.
and my head says they are going to thrash us, but my heart say's......1-0, qpr.

HT: 0:0. Can’t complain with that. Some good passing moves and good movement. A few stray passes, but I guess it’s early season and people just getting their eye in and sussing out their teammates.

Positives: I was an LTC detractor, but on this first half, very pleased with what I’ve seen. Always showing for the ball and wanting to get things going.

Lee Wallace has looked good. I feel more assured with him at the back, and not too shabby going forward either.

BOS looks hungry and Dykes is mixing it in.

Negatives: This is me being very picky, because no-ones going to be perfect; a number of stray passes from Cameron. Early days.

Overall, score is a fair reflection of a decent first half from the Rs. Just missing a bit of an Eze X-Factor so we can really shout about something!!

Overall I thought that was excellent tbh. We need to hit Dykes more often, 3 or 4 times we've gone down the channels when it would be interesting to see if Lyndon could badrash his marker - he had one salmon leap in that half, let's test that.

Other than that very happy. Plus I'm dipping into the wife's gin, can't beat that.


Does she prefer that to a slice of lime?

Yes - it's absolutely spiffing as a fan, now we've heard The Warblemeister 'manage expectations' by moaning that Palace's 20 mill will basically plug a few holes so suck it up you ignorant lot, to look forward to flogging Mr Bright for a fee that'll presumably just about cover the gas bill.

Jim Gregory will be turning in his grave!


You're just an arse though. If it wasn't for the Tommy Saxondale feel of it all I've had hidden you long ago.

LTC has been excellent.

Is it me or is he not as L as last time? Seems to have grown/beefed up

Less moaning, more stating fact.
But maybe you haven't noticed the global pandemic and the fact there's no crowds and the fact that the owners you despise put in £1m a month to keep the club going?
Warbs knows not all fans are ignorant just... some are. Apparently.

I'm enjoying this. Carroll playing really well, chair too. And we look sharp generally.

Spat half my tea out when I read that Washington had scored, now you've done for the rest.

Good thing it's half time and I can get another brew.

Would prefer more shots on target, but was pleased with the football in the attacking half. Carroll really impressed with his passing.

We also seem to be moving the ball a lot quicker and look sharper.... the long ball for Dykes also gives us options. carroll has been excellent... cool and calm in the midfield...much needed..

Freeman got away once and set up Blackett for a cross which Grabban headed over. Otherwise Cameron has kept him very quiet.

Lumley has looked alert and swept up when needed, but otherwise has not been called upon.

Only three shots in the half, 2-1 to us.

No shots on target by either team!

I'm enjoying it too. Very much so, to quote Super Ray. But they're bizarre stats.

She's new to gin mate so it's all to play for (if you don't know what that means don't worry neither do I, dipping into the wife's gin requires decisive, inebriating movements)

A game of few chances with neither keeper making a save or even a catch according to the stats. Could need a piece of magic from either side to win this. I Just hope it's us.

Very Happy with that first, first half of the season.
We seem to come out of the blocks very quickly for the first few mins with plenty of high pressing.

I wonder if LTC will be a revelation this season after a lot of negativity or at least ambivalence at his signing? Early days, but seems to have the ability to see a pass before he has received the ball and releases it quickly with one touch. Hope this is "the second coming" and we have a different player on our hands this time around.

BOS seems reasonably interested but still after all the running at defenders he needs to get that shot off or find that final pass that leads to a shot on goal.

Overall, happy with that start.

Steve, I don't want to be negative, but generally speaking, teams don't usually need 'a bit of magic' to score against us. A corner usually does it ;)

Bare bones.

Is Amos playing? Not heard him mentioned at all


Linking well with LTC and doing a lot of good closing down.

Freeman’s been involved in some of their more probing attacks, but we know from experience that that all he needs is a moment and a bit of space. Right now he’s not getting too much of either, hopefully it’ll stay that way.

Lumley hasn’t had much to do so far. Credit to the defence and hope they can keep it up.

Carroll definitely driving our game this half. We haven't had a midfielder like that for some time.


His best will come when he’s able to link up with manning

All true Antti but it’s still bad news for the team and the fans if we lose players and see the (majority) of the proceeds being used to pay bills. Not saying it isn’t necessary, but it’s certainly disheartening.
