The Wednesday on Saturday Match Thread on 13:24 - Dec 17 by mart_Goblin | In the cold light of day today I just think there was a lot of frustration from myself and others that we as a team , as a club always do what we did yesterday and snatch defeat from Jaws of victory . It’s in our DNA to raise hopes and then piss on them from a great height . It was more death by a thousand cuts than yesterday its self. I would imagine that a lot of teams fans are like that . Probably most. To be called hysterical (not me personally but the majority by the odd few) was just patronising at the time when it’s just emotion. Emotion is huge in any sport , but football especially , so to suggest it’s hysterical by one or 2 felt off to me. Today it’s not the end of the world and , although worried this bunch are going to start struggling again , I trust that MC has learned enough over the last 4 or 5 days to move forward and to also learn by his errors . He certainly made some yesterday but that doesn’t make him shit it makes him the manager of QPR . And I’m glad he is |

Yeah facts are that if we'd held out for another 10 minutes or so we'd be talking about 4 clean sheets in a row, another 3 points and this thread would certainly have a different tone. Yeah Field should have put his foot though the ball, yes we didn't play very well etc etc but as ever fine margins. I take it all back if we get bummed in the gob 5-0 next week against the Saints of course. All this talk about yesterday being a 'defining moment' and 'it'll come back to bit us in April' is just absolute twaddle. | | | |

You have to throw the manager in there also I think. I thought Cook should have be on way sooner yet on comes Ozzie to throw fuel on their fire which he did of course. Dunne strained his groin it looked to me and was moving gingerly then got caught again . Did anybody at the game see SW load up their forwards to try and equalize and were you concerned they would do it. Once Ozzie pissed down his leg with that shot after a beautiful backheel they sensed blood and we turned into the QPR of 2 months ago. | | | |

Don't worry. I got the first part right so no doubt will also be right about the 4 points. Clive, please make sure the prediction comp pays out on Chair as first goalscorer | |

Lots of hate on here for Kakay but after he came on, he got no support defensively from Willock. Smyth tracked back and helped out Cannon/Dixon-Bonner but Willock didn't do the same which led to several overload on that side in those last 20 mins. | |

The Wednesday on Saturday Match Thread on 12:31 - Dec 17 by E15Hoop | Sorry - 100% don't agree with this. "Evil prospers when good men do nothing" as a very wise man once said, and given that sh*tty thoughts lead to sh*tty attitudes and sh*tty actions, I will resolutely defend the moral high ground and support my friends who do the same. I would encourage you and everyone else to do the very same thing, in fact, otherwise we all get dragged down to the lowest common denominator. You may believe that you don't have the right to do this, which possibly speaks about some kind of inferiority complex which I would encourage you to reflect on and overcome. You may also believe that you are guilty of hypocrisy by doing so - again something I would encourage you to think about and erflect where that comes from. Am I setting myself to be judged? Possibly. Do I give a f*ck about it? No I do not, for I know whose opinion of me I care about and whose are not worth concerning myself with. Calling Bazza's comments "baiting" is clearly moronic and, as outlined above, dangerous when taking to their obvious conclusion, I know which hill I would rather die on. |

He got caught completely square and I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt that he knew he couldn’t turn and get back in. What is clear though is that the standards at the club are completely non-existent with regards cheap bookings. We seem to have just accepted that Field will do something fcking stupid every game and therefore it’s fine for everyone else. | | | | Login to get fewer ads

Kakay is League 2 standard yet he's played more than 100 games for us. He seems a likeable guy and always puts in the effort but he's a liability at this level. No coincidence that the more he's played for us, the worse we have got. First goal, he's in no man's land, neither closing down the cross nor marking the scorer who has drifted away from him. Second goal, he's in no man's land, failing to head a ball that Cook in theory has covered anyway. Just not good enough at this level however much people want him to succeed. | | | |

Ummmm because he’s not very good. Because he hasn’t got the ability to learn or actually understand instructions. Because he’s well out of his depth. Yes he can run but so could Linford Christie. How hard is it to stand on the last defenders shoulder and use your speed. Seriously basic. He should be terrorising defenders yet he’s so easy to play against | | | |

Dunne, thinking you mean Cook? It was Cook's ball to win for the 2nd goal not Kakay's and his positional play for 1st goal was poor too. | | | |

Agreed, it’s offensive to say Kakay is L2 standard when the lower leagues demand strength, position knowledge and being smart enough to get rid when in trouble. I honestly don’t know what level he could comfortably play at - he had an average spell in the Scottish second division many years ago now so I guess start there and see? | | | |

Seen many people dig out Dunne and none more so than me over the last 18 months . As an ex defender he is a liability so I understand your point . If anything I’ve been more sympathetic with Ozzie . Not even sure why ? Came through our ranks maybe ? All I know is they are both ‘rank’ and only playing as there is no one else to rotate in my opinion | | | |

As an ex-defender interested to hear your take on Cook's positioning for the 1st and his defending for the 2nd yesterday. | | | |

Dunne was one of our most advanced players on the pitch in the build up to the first goal. He’s a centre back, we’re winning 1-0 away from home in a crucial game with 5 minutes to go and he’s completely out of position. His attempts to get back and block the cross were pathetic. Brain dead doesn’t do it justice. | | | |

I can see sphincter strength becoming a key metric in football analytics. Definitely something we should consider when looking at new players. | |

Any thoughts on Cook's & JCS positioning for that cross into the box for the 1st goal? Or Cook losing his man at the back post for the 2nd goal? Shall we just blame Dykes, Dunne or even Kakay for everything as its just easier? | | | |

Honestly don’t know what to say if you’re looking at our defence and genuinely think that Cook and JCS are the problem. There’s a reason why Dunne and Kakay get most of the blame and it’s because they’re the usual culprits when they’re on the pitch and we concede. | | | |

Both were poor for the goal but as soon as Kakay came on it started panic in our defence , he has no football brain, he never looks up, takes a hack at everything and his passing and positional sense are crap , one of the worst right backs I’ve seen at Rangers in 40 odd years of going | |
| And Bowles is onside, Swinburne has come rushing out of his goal , what can Bowles do here , onto the left foot no, on to the right foot
That’s there that’s two, and that’s Bowles
