I meant to add after this performance and Hammond's was the worst it appears he is quoted in the Echo as saying he is not worried about our away form He may not be but I know quite a few thousand who are. i could not attend Donny or Coventry but did Derby and Reading and it seems things are getting worse. His form seems to be the most suspect at the moment followed by Guly.

We basically need to learn how to retain the ball more consistently, we can do it but every few games have one like today where the ball looks like a wet bar of soap. Even though HH wasn't in the squad today; I would've stayed at 442, the 5man midfield is something we played for Adel - if he's not playing I don't think we should carry on playing it.

To lose only 1 - nil is a far better result than I expected. But our few dead balls - corners/free kicks were their usual ineffective rubbish. We must improve here and fast.

Good to see DJ back.

Now lets surprise everyone and beat Man U next Saturday.

Looking at the stats we were absolutely hammered so where do we go from here?
We have conceded 40 goals in 20 games so we start every match 2 nil down so how can we expect to win?
The more I hear about how little SE had to do with the real City academy the more I think that he sold our Chairman a dummy at his interview.
I can see us losing to Yeovil next Sat and then he must surely go......

Poor upfront without Helguson, Bothroyd unable to hold up play, wins very few in the air and didn't look interested when he lost the ball!
DJ looked fresh, hopefully him and Heider together on Sunday.
Agree with BasingstokeR 5 man midfield just did not work, looked like they weren't sure who was picking up who.
Would have been more than 1-0 if not for Cerny.

I thought we did ok today except we did not score and if you look at the stats with 68% possession then you wonder why we did not score!!
Unfortunately a lot of our play was at the back and we have to stop passing back to the likes of Holness who dont have a clue what to do with the ball...
The truth is unless something changes dramatically we are going down- I almost wished we had lost then SE would surely have been sacked

Just awful.

The defence was over whelmed and the attack (as usual) made chances and (as usual) couldnt take a single one of them. That is unforgivable at this level.

SWP is a winger who needs the ball out on the wing and to run with it. Every ball he got he immediately knocked it back to another player. Either play him as a winger and to his strengths or dont play him at all. He was like a headless chicken for the first 30 mins
Barton needs the riot act read to him. He was awful and so far isnt the player he thinks he is! And what was that free kick right on the edge of the penalty area that he casually knocked to a Man U player. That summed up his contribution!
Bothroyd has never impressed me and again was far too casual and shows that he is not Premiership quality.

Dead balls and set pieces are another major weak spot for QPR. Every one was wasted. We have not improved in this area at all since day 1 of the season.

At least Adel played a bit like his old self.

Warnocks tactics once again were lacking. As I have said before, he is a great Championship manager but a very poor Premiership manager

We really must get 6 points from the next two games or else we are in big trouble.

If we survive the season then the summer must bring big changes - players and management.

Now looks like the 8 days pre transfer deadline was not enough time for NW and TF to rectify the abysmal situation left by the permatanned tosser. We're starting to limp towards January and the need to buy genuine Prem players. God knows where we will be in the table when the door opens.

The home support was poor. Perhaps playing at 12 noon and not being tanked up prior played a part. Certainly no supportive atmosphere and no animosity a la Chelsea to put off the mollycoddled celebrities.For God's sake it's less than two years since Paul Hart played keep ball with four full backs to hold on for a miserable win. People have such short memories.

All players to my mind put their best effort in but were simply outclassed. Shrek played a blinder bar one or two stray passes much as I'm loathe to say it.

J Barton was the exception. He was abysmal. He should stop listening to the w--ky band he likes and listen to something more motivating! What was unforgiveable was the lack of ball received by AT who was looking sharp. Barton as captain might not like AT, but he should at least make sure he gets the ball when he's on song. he looked the only route to any possible comeback.

In Warnock we should still trust...and without the cameras on Wednesday night perhaps AT might finally step up to the Premiership plate . He has nothing to fear of the professional example set him by Barton in this game.

I really think Warnock is the best manager we have had since Gordon Jago and Dave Sexton. He has done wonders for the team. But I also think he is like Derry.

Both were instrumental and key to us gaining promotion but both are not quite good enough to cut the mustard, now we are there.

For QPR to survive and improve within the Premiership then we will need a proven Premiership standard manager for 2012/13 onwards, just like we will need some proven Premiership players and not has beens like Dyer or wannabes like Bothroyd.
