Very poor generally and its no wonder Lovren was going berserk at the inept displays by Gazzaniga Fox and Hooiveldt

For what it's worth QPR came away with just about what they deserved. That second goal of Forest's was a joke though, lino called the offside early enough, then confirmed to the ref that it was offside only for him to again over-rule him. Poor that.
Starting with both Zamora and Henry was a massive error for me. Zamora is shot, he constantly bottled every 50/50, his decision making was horrendous and he couldn't lay a pass off to save his life. I'm not one for a boo boy but I genuinely don't want to see him in a Ranger's shirt ever again.
Much better performance 2nd half when Henry and Zamora were replaced by AJ and Junior, actually carried some attacking threat then. But boy we need someone to put their foot through the ball and have a pop at goal.
Could have got ourselves back in it second half given the rub of the green maybe but that second goal pretty much killed it off as a contest.
Forest are a decent hard-working side.
Hurry back Austin, was sorely missed.

Schoolboy stuff! The Linesman is the referee's assistant. Therefore he doesn't make the decisions, the referee does! Hence play to the whistle. Assou-Ekotu should be left out immediately as he is lazy at the best of times, culpable for both goals and is clearly going through the motions ahead of a return to Spurs.

Chelsea, were the best visiting side I have seen at SMS this term so far. The blues got everything spot on, especially substitutions and tactics, but it helps when you have world-class players warming the bench and itching to prove a point.

Saints were simply toothless up front, JRod and Gaston were just not at the races and the blue defence, especially Terry and Cahill, was very resolute. When Cork and Davis came off the midfield was overrun and the back four were exposed to some wonderful football from Willan, Tores and Oscar..

I’m afraid Saints looked very ordinary…

The team only got going in the second half. The first half was poor due to the tactics. Midfeild was too lught weight -so no surprise when Yossi got pushed aside and the Rovers raced down and Robinson scrored-great pass from Macheda.
We could and should have been a couple of goals up but the finishing was too lightweight-Rovers deserved their lead and could have had a couple more. Harry changed the setup with 2 upfront and a stronger midefield. ONeil and Barton started bossing the game and the equaliser was no surpirse. Good to see Phillips amongst the goals
Despite all the huffing and puffing we were poor upfront but Rovers were no better
A perfect cross well into injury time at last landing in the right spot for Austin to head in a winner. His celebration spoke volumes!! but it was Simpson cross that should have been appreciated more
Felt sorry for Rovers but relief at getting the points

0-0 a decent reflection of first half. They had some chances, but mostly gifted by us - a couple from misplaced or miscontrolled passes at the back/midfield, and two from OUR corners!!!. To be fair, we ultimately saw off the danger each time, including a good save by Green (although it was hard to make out what was going on in that scramble 'til it was on TV later). They gifted us one chance in return, but we also made a couple of our own, including one which resulted in a great save off Austin.

Second half started in a similar, fairly scrappy way, but once Niko had scored we started to play with more purpose and Ipswich really lost all belief. The first goal was a good individual effort, but the other two were "soft" defensively.

I wouldn't say we won it as a result of high tempo, high quality football, but all-in-all a good day out and QPR fans in good voice all the way through
