Match 5 😯
Going a bit early due to Xmas and I'm not changing the format as I'm becoming more superstitious the longer this run continues.
Will the Welsh valleys be filled with the joyous choir melodies of Rangers fans celebrating another good result?
Will The Rs refuse to go gentle into that good night?
Does Matri look younger when QPR do well?
Those Ancient Alien Astronaut theorists give a resounding Yes!
Tough game, no Cook, but we are looking difficult to breakdown. Going for a 1-0 win, but be delighted with a draw.
Happy Xmas everyone, and safe journey to those making the trip along the M4. U Rs! |  | | |  |

God, Fox is appalling. |
That's being charitable |  |

You've lost me, mate - go back to the sherry! |
Drank the sherry after I ran out of Pernod. And Ouzo. And Domestos, diesel, WD40, homebrewed 'tizer' and cooking oil.
It was a tough first half. |  |

Is there a mist descending or have my eyes glazed over? |  | | |

What happened to Colback anyway? Did his leg fall off? | | | |

Swansea will not have an easier game all season. That was nothing short of embarrassing and I'm just sorry for all the Rs that trekked all the way out there | |

An absolute barnstorming 2nd half from the lads.
Anyway, no time to rest (or even train) as they'll be travelling up to Norwich tomorrow. That will either be more of the same or, which i hope, a pride fuelled response to this. |  | | |

We had a good 15 minutes or so.
The only trouble is, for the rest of the game, we were awful, with our players all looking like they were trying to digest a full box of Celebrations. Including the tin 
All over. 3-0 |  |

96 minutes with just 1 dubious shot and a wide header!
Yikes! |  |

Should fans be refunded for shocking performances? (There are precedents.)

As he likes to talk about 'keeping humble', I hope, as I say, Marti has the decency to use his post-match interview to apologise to us after that. That way, he at least salvages some credibility on behalf of his team.
It's either that or throw them under the bus, surely? [Post edited 26 Dec 17:00]

Saving grace, the bottom four all lost. | | | |

Oh well, we certainly have been on a good run. Matches like this happen to everyone, the key is to right the ship next time out | | | |

And Chelsea lose at home in the 95th minute.
Not such a bad day after all | | | |

Well it was a bit better 2nd half, I think Chair needs to start against Norwich. We can get away with Morgan Fox for 20-45 minutes but geez is he a liability the number of times there forwards ran in behind him, and that was even with us camped in our box at times.
I dont think we can afford Morrison and Cook out long term and we certainly can't play rope-a-dope without them so maybe we need to add centre back to the shopping list with left back and striker |  | | |

Thankfully they put the cue on the rack second half and saved us from the shellac king we deserved. Expect to see a response at Norwich...if not points. Performance in that first half was totally unacceptable. | | | |

Fox should be put out to grass. |
He was only selected to avoid him being victim of a Boxing Day hunt today. |  | | |

Marti definitely needs to look ahead w some of the fixture congestion
Not a bad shout to save legs and give guys like Bennie Lloyd Edb a run out
Lot better this half but amazingly still no shors |
What shors ?
Oh, thanks, a pint of bitter and a double scotch. |  | | |

We've picked up a few points of late, and had one or two decent performances/halves along the way, but we've also had the sub-Ainsworthian Bristol showing, the frightening first half against Oxford, and now, bar at most a quarter of an hour which was a bit better (but during which we still couldn't fashion a shot on target), this unwatchable garbage. So, no, Strikerace, all teams, or even most teams, don't sink to the nadirs we seem only too able to!
The next two games will tell us a great deal about both the players and the coaching team. Set dials to 'apprehensive' and buckle in, folks! [Post edited 26 Dec 17:12]

Poor game, but hoping it's a one off. Would rather Chair, Frey and Morrison start at Norwich if possible. Even if they have to come off at half time. Looked better when Chair and Frey came on today | | | |

I think I might start watching this lot from behind the sofa like I did as a kid with Dr Who.
As for us being football's extremists, they're certainly turning me manic-depressive! | |

Swansea get their first win on Boxing Day since their last win on Boxing Day 2-0 against us naturally. To go since 1967 without an away win on Boxing day is a damn fine achievement by us. It makes you wonder if our training program involves the players sitting at home Christmas Day stuffing their faces. So predictable that everyone we play away on this date expect to have your Christmas spoilt.
We have recently got away with poor starts but not today and it is a reminder that we are not safe from the drop. |  | | |
