He’ll leave with my blessing if he does go, not least because “Jimmy Dunne to score / QPR to win” three games in a row got me the funds to pay for Xmas
The timing is rotten and it’s a real shame as it felt like we had a club legend in the making here, he’s been up and down in his time with us but he’s Mr QPR out there these days. We should have had this nailed down 12 months ago, but his form wasn’t great then was it.
He’s 27 and he’s probably got one big move left, you can’t begrudge it. |

I love Colin Murray - one of our great broadcasters
He’s been brilliant on the Championship highlights where he actually knew about the teams and fans, Fighting Talk on Radio 5, Countdown, his late night Radio 5 show. He also did a great podcast series called Blood on the Tracks I highly recommend where people talk about their favourite music.
Best of all he immediately resigned from Talksport years ago when Murdoch bought it, saying he’s a Liverpool fan and he couldn’t do it. Don’t see a lot of that these days |

Fair play to him
The peak of my football career was making one brief sub appearance for Hanwell Town years ago when they were desperate for someone in a friendly
It was apparent that was as high up the footballing ladder I was ever going to get |

Really enjoyed the first half, thought it was the best quality game at Loftus Road for a good while, two well matched teams.
I said at half time I’d barely noticed Barry Bannon was playing which was a pleasant surprise, but they came out for the second half and looked sharper and more up for it, have to say it was a deserved victory. They’re a big physical team alright, apart from that irritating Scottish git, and the big man Smith who came on made a real difference.
Few of our players look tired now, Smyth should probably have been subbed as he was blowing after an hour (understandable).
Thought Paal had another good game aside from the crap free kicks.
Maybe not a bad thing the crazy optimism of this week gets punctured, we’re an improving team but we’re not a great one yet |

The Norwich game really hammered this home for me. They were a team that transparently lacked any type of togetherness: moaning at each other and the ref, heads went down easily, individuals trying to do too much. Not surprised we're now above them. |

Looking at that table tonight it feels like a win on Saturday would be massive in terms of changing the focus of our season.
If we don’t QPR it as usual of course |

This would be a great idea and well deserved for one of the greatest QPR players I’ve ever seen in the flesh (Les, Paul Parker the other two)
I was at the end of season dinner after promotion and Paddy Kenny got player of the season and Adel was genuinely and in retrospect quite rightly gutted. In fact it was a weirdly moody night all round. Chance to put it right |

Agreed, let’s not write Madsen off, he got in a fair few blocks and clearances
Ashby was fkin woeful and almost cost us the game by being totally casual with the ball over and over again.
Until then I would say it was a masterful away performance, we looked in control throughout that second half |

Bloody hell.
Marti not having Ashby giving it away constantly for ten minutes.
Our manager has a cold side alright |

Fkin hell
In that passage of play Ashby must have given it away five times in five minutes.
I find it hard to warm to him [Post edited 21 Jan 21:29]

Alfie Lloyd’s sub chaos is great to have.
Must be a nightmare to defend, nobody (including us or him) knows what he’s going to do |

Nice to see us having a bit of possession in an away game for once.
Can’t fault the tackling, we look solid.
Edwards looks like a quality loan (and badly needed looking at the bench)
Hull not as cr-p as I hoped
He’s to a Jimmy Dunne winner on 90 |

Atmosphere feels like a pre season friendly judging by the pictures (albeit with sh-t fireworks and lights)
Fair play to anyone there tonight, especially after Plymouth. What a mission [Post edited 21 Jan 19:41]

Poor Morgan Whitaker.
High profile move to play and live in Rome for an iconic team, or rack and stack in Scott Parker’s 0-0 Burnley collective with a few minutes here and there
Feel for him |

I’ve played a load of different sports in my life (not so much these days as I’m a stressed middle aged dad) and there’s no doubt in my mind 11-a-side football at a decent level is the most brutal, requires both insane fitness and also luck in how your body is made up to deal with it. Constantly twisting, sprinting, tackling, jumping plus the mental side of never switching off, it’s brutal and I’ve never been so knackered as in the last 10 mins of a decent game of football as playing any other sport
And I was a muppet playing amateur league stuff
Modern football at our level must be so punishing, it’s nothing like the 80s. Rugby league is the only other one I reckon compares. Squash was also knackering!
Meanwhile I’m 50 now and after playing a round of golf on Sunday I’m aching like a good un [Post edited 20 Jan 23:05]

I feel bad but I did say as Celar limped off in that home game it might have been a blessing. I know he was starting to get the odd goal but his all round play is non existent |
