I don't think many people would deny that we've had a mentality issue at Rangers for quite a few seasons now. Even when a manager looks like they've cracked it, the soft underbelly comes out sooner rather than later.
So I am contradicted; on the one hand GA now banging on about us being "not the club we once were" and trying to make us the underdogs is presumably part of his attempt to change all this.
But - on the other - trying to paint us out as some non-league backwater doesn't sit well with me. We do have a pedigree and a history, thankyou very much. We've got a fan base prepared to turn out in big numbers given just a vague sniff of joy. Far bigger numbers than Fulham or Brentford ever would if their side was as regularly abysmal as ours.
Can't we get players interested in playing for QPR because of the above....because...well...we are QPR? The club of Francis, Ferdinand, Marsh, Parker, McDonald, Eze, Bowles....rather than painting us out to be some kind of new Crazy Gang story. I can't see that going down well - to use the cliché - once results go against us. Although with Rangers, we can change that cliché to when results go against us.
So I am with GA in trying to change the mentality, but I am not comfortable in the way he seems to be doing it. Maybe once the dust settles on this abysmal season he can find a balance?

Heads dropped at 30 minutes when we went a goal behind, Its pathetic.
When my lad was 10 years old playing under 11s football one of his negative traits was his head dropping straight away when the game wasn't going his way or he made a mistake. It was something i used to tell him after games that thats what he needed to improve over anything else. Which he did.
These are professional footballers. I feel like i need a chat with Ilias Chair while dropping him back home to his mum.
Amos is another little cry baby. There was a moment on Monday when he's in the box but got dispossessed and for a nano second he looses the ball only for the ball to be still in play, a free ball as the defender has cocked up. Is Amos trying to recover the ball?.. Nah .. he has his head in hands looking up a the sky crying about losing the ball. . He gets hooked off a minute later.
Its schoolboy stuff. [Post edited 9 May 2023 18:36]

Don't you know, little fool, you never can win?
Use your mentality, step up, wake up to reality.
