Seeing Two Different Approaches Home & Away ( I Like it)
at 01:11 23 Dec 2024

Don;'t you want y/our team to play with more pride and, who knows, even a touch of panche, rather than inept numbskulls with an inferiority complex? I know I do - even if we get a few fewer away points as a result.

Was Prestons goal totally against the morals of the game
at 01:06 23 Dec 2024

I thought that was odd from the manager. Meanwhile, what you're saying there's no way it's a soft tissue injury, but let's hope it is anyway?

Have we ever had a wider range of quality in the squad ?

Kennedy once said the best time to repair the roof is when the sun is shining.

*Edit* President Kennedy, not our loanee winger Mark.

Well, I can only say I hope the Bristol game isn't now a blueprint for our away 'strategy'. 30% possession, a block lower than an anteater's snout, and eight touches in the opponent's box all game doesn't quite do it for me, I'm afraid.

Comfortable in mid table
at 22:53 22 Dec 2024

Jesus - for me, this all really goes to show our expectations/aspirations have sunk into our boots since the decline set in during the second half of Warburton's final season!

Fourteenth is hardly 'comfortable', but I guess it's altitude sickness-inducing after the last couple of years in the life of a QPR fan. Not that I'm not feeling quite a bit better than a month ago.

Are we a "second half" team?
at 22:49 22 Dec 2024

That's one way of looking at it, I guess, but the other is for Marti to work out why we're usually such poor starters (and then do something about it).

Where are the "Nourry out" comments now ???

Except you don't know that Marti didn't appear at the FF because he was prevented from doing so, so you're peddling tiresome speculation as if it were fact. What does that leave you and your ilk with? The fact that Cifuentes won't/doesn't want to talk to a fans site - which again may well be MC's personal decision (and prerogative)? That's just risible! We all enjoy posting here, but we're really not that important - what part of that don't you get?

I'm not convinced of Nourry, but I'm not convinced of Marti either, or the owners, or some of the players, so take a chill pill (I know it's me talking before the usual suspects pile in with their hilarious emoticon-laden sideswipes), and enjoy the weekend!

Nourry doesn't have 'zero' experience in football, even if he seems to have sugarcoated his CV (as I'm sure many of us have) to some degree.

Just out of interest - what would it take to revise your opinion of him as CEO or at least dial down on the agenda-driven hysteria about him that's been promulgated here?

If you really think he's a fraud, it's Hoos and the owners you should be turning your ire on, I suggest, as he didn't get the role of CEO by abracadabra.

How many more times! Marti has significant input into all player signings, as he's said himself, as well as saying numerous times he trusts and likes his players and their mentality. All performance-related problems are everyone's issue at the club, but mostly the coach's as (i) he is involved in recruitment, (ii) trains the players, and (iii) implements the playing style/game plan, who gets credit or criticism accordingly. He was rightly being questioned by some of us at least when we were down among the dead men, and still is when we look at games like Oxford and Bristol City, and yesterday he and his players get some rapturous/cautious applause. That's the way it works, and Marti knows that as well as anyone.

He's big, for sure, but he needs to become much more of a bully for me, as he's too often bustling but ineffective. I know he's just coming back, but contributed little in his 30 minutes, and looked a bit heavy to me. It might be a bit harsh, but I'd be OK if he were released/replaced in January, as I think we need to do better in his position, both in numbers and quality.

Would be interesting to know how Chair sees the bigger picture, and if he and MC view his role any differently what with the big breathing spaces of his injuries.

For me, he's still a 10, with licence to roam. I actually love the idea of him, Smyth and Saito all starting, but in that case who do you drop?

Chair definitely gave us a lift today, though. (See what I did there?)

Smyth.
at 21:13 21 Dec 2024

Made a goal, hit the bar, and nearly (probably should have) scored another. Won us a raft of free kicks. Never stopped.

If that infuriates you, you make me look like the friggin' Buddha!

I do rate Saito, but he was peripheral today, disappointingly. He seemed to be playing too deep and not getting ono the ball enough in threatening positions a la Smyth on the other side. That might be Marti's fault for the shape as much as the player's. Any views from the master tacticians here?

I noticed Field was having a right old chin wag with the ref after it, and there was a bit of pushing and shoving with some of their players. Would love to know what was said, but that's about as likely in an Offish interview as my stepping out to the pictures with Ariana Grande.

What a sweet reversal! Just for once, we nab a good 'un from one of the Prem 'super teams'. (Perhaps we could sell him back to them for a small fortune in a few years!)

I've been eating a few slices of humble pie on and off for a while now (though certainly not post-Brizzle), but after that 2nd half, it'll be interesting to hear from those who've insisted the entire recruitment was in the sea and Nourry an existential danger to our club. Talk about false prophets!
