Ashby is NOT a left back, but if anyone on here thinks Paal is the answer f**k off. All to do with recruitment. Paal is never going to sign a new contract and has, basically, given up on QPR. An average player at best, he's downed tools and is the worst definition of a "professional". Need a new LB in on the 1st January. Shocking how we ended up here, but here we are... |

"You can miss one game, its Christmas and we are going out with my parents". **sigh** Married life even after 23 years. No signal here, will be walking around. If it were a 3 o'clock, might have be able to watch, but, alas, no. Think of me and the lad when Rayan gets his third, won't you? More likely a hastening defeat though - 2-1 Michy Frey late consolation... |

Me too! Smyth is a Championship player with a L2 ability in the final third as his delivery and / or shooting is invariably crap. BUT whatever way you want to try to dress is up, that was a bloomin' good cross that got us back in to the game. If only he can do that more often... |

Not sure it was that good, Ned. The difference between the parachute clubs and most others in this league is the gap between the best and worst performances. On their day, most teams at this level and the one below can give ANY team a good game. But its the teams who can maintain that level who are the ones that succeed. When we're off it, we get that first half last night, the second half at Blackburn, Middlesbrough (h), Derby (a), Pompey (h), first half v Sheff U (a), Leeds (a) - all totally unacceptable performances. We look to be improving, but that improvement needs to get to the consistent state it was over the last 14 games last year, but even then we got Stoke (a), Hull (a), Huddersfield (h) and Sheff W (h) in that run. |

...and yet in this game, it was his peach of a cross that led to Kolli's peach of a layoff and Field's peach of a finish. Peachy. |

Yeah, but how many teams go 12 or so without a win as frequently as we seem to? Fairly sure that there is something more about our lot in that regard - go on a winless run, then go on an unbeaten run. We hardly win at home then lose away week in week out, do we? Any stattos out there that want to do some crunching of the numbers? |

Post win curry on the Goldhawk Rd. Second half MASSIVE improvement, but still not great. But a wins a win. They were utterly shocking and I'd hope that is them below us for the season. This league is crap though, isn't it? At least we look competitive now. TFFT. |

Every time this lot make you think you've turned a corner, they kick out those slop. This is truly dreadful; Pompey and Derby levels of crap. This lot are dog awful, yet have all the ball and I can't help but think I've seen this story so many times before. Back to relegation form. We HAVE to be better this half, but then so do they. Not good. |

Usually after they have left and sign for another club. |

Fair enough. I just don't see it at all. Admittedly I focus on his bad points, but it seems like there is loads of them in each game. I suspect that I simply think that with his attributes he really should be contributing way more than he actually is. All about opinions - yours can't be wrong, because its yours; similarly, mine can't be wrong because its mine. Vive La Difference! |

Go on, I'll play - yes I do face the pitch. Admittedly with this lot, some times it is through my fingers, but I do watch. You? |

Do I have to comment? I'm scared that Esox and others will leap at me. Downvotes at the ready. Kenny is MASSIVELY overrated on here - I say it every thread on him, he can't defend (stands far too far away from attackers), can't beat a man, can't cross (mostly) and is abysmal at set pieces (mostly). Add in the fact that he is just phoning things in this season and the bloke is an utter liability. Great cross for Kolli on Saturday, but that "shot" was a mis-hit cross and he spent the early part of the game working out how to get the lowest %complete pass rating. Technically, he looks lovely - fantastic touch and relatively quick, but he never busts a gut to get back from his frequent out of position. No, I am not a fan. [Post edited 10 Dec 19:45]

The space their defenders gave him for the first goal was shocking. He had a clear run to that header as no-one squeezed him in and the second one was also a howler following some good Madsen pressure. Not taking anything away from the lad at all, but nix is right here. Hopefully Oxford are as bad tomorrow and / or Kolli steps up even more... |

Kind of tempers down their noise about not getting that penalty and the second "goal" deemed offside, when it probably wasn't. That said, as kensal says, we'd have struggled against 10... |

I think you are right. He certainly rubbed his hammy (NOT a Euphemism in any way) a couple of mins before that run... |

Welcome. The Championship is full of utter slop save 3-4 teams totally bankrolled by parachute payments from the Big Cash League. The bottom half is full of teams whose goal every game is to be less shite than their shite opposition. Fair? [Post edited 9 Dec 23:31]

Well Celar is out and let's hope Paal is to - he has basically given up for us. Yes, a great cross for Kolli's first, but he was god awful for the rest of the game. So Kolli for Celar and Ashby for Paal and we go again. Field for Morgan as the latter looked a little tired in the last 20 minutes yesterday. Sam is great; Morgan is one for the future and will be great. Hopefully, Illy and Frey from the bench - they are going to need 20 mins here and there as whatever anyone on here REALLY thinks, they HAVE to be back in the team and firing asap. That will be difficult as they will need time to get back up to speed, something neither may not be permitted by the fan base. Worried that we will underestimate Oxford - so QPR to smash three past Norwich and keep a clean sheet then follow it up with a 0-1 or 0-2 against Oxford. They will be towards the bottom by the end of the season, so exactly the type of HOME game we really should be winning... [Post edited 8 Dec 19:19]
