Steve Cooper rumoured.
Boro are massively under performing for the team they've got and the money they've spent. |

Yeh first half of the season against the top six I think we were D2 L4, given we've got them all to play again that'll need to change if we are going to go anywhere serious - beating Blackburn in the first of those is a nice start. |

I think it’s 20 and 21 with own goals.
Messaged Jack and he say…
Excluding own goals it's 20 different goalscorers in all comps.
Most since 2017-18 (also 20 scorers).
Last time we had more was in 2013-14 (21 scorers) - which I think is the most for us in a season (all comps) since 1920 (when we entered the league). |

One of the things I did learn last night which I didn't know is that guide dogs have a set retirement age. He said his pooch is "coming to the end of her working life" so he needs another one. What happens to them then? Are they like greyhounds you can rescue?

The Preston striker who bit that Blackburn lad earlier in the season has pretty obviously racially abused Hannibal in that game as well. Another prolonged period sat in the stand for that bloke. |

I came here to say this. First half we got caught a little bit down our right and he sprinted 60 yards back to cover and challenge to help a team mate out. |

I've actually agreed with a lot of what you've posted of late, however harsh it may seem to some.
What I don't think you acknowledge however is the budget we're working to and with.
So, yeh, Dunne, Field, Smyth, Cook, these players have their various limitations. Would they get in the Leeds team that's top? Probably not. So if we want to be top, or top six, do we need better? Probably yes.
But they're here because it's what we can afford to pay. This is why I often say 'if you're playing for QPR there's something wrong with you somewhere...' If Steve Cook was younger, quicker, more mobile, he wouldn't be playing for us because we couldn't afford him, he'd be playing in the Premier League for somebody else (which is exactly where he was when he was younger, quicker and more mobile).
Maybe you think we can get better than these players on our budget, at which point we probably do disagree. But it should at least be acknowledged, I think, that we're working with a budget very much in the bottom half of this league when you're busy wishing away half our team. |

I'm finding it more hilarious than anything.
I don't know what anybody else did with their Friday but with mine I had a lovely lunch in town, great afternoon in the pub with all my mates, QPR won 4-0 at home, Chelsea lost 3-0 away, we all went back to the Crown for a drink and bit of a sing, and I fell asleep on the sofa watching the game back. Now I've got the whole weekend still ahead of me.
A great day, night, performance and result. Exactly what we're (well, I'm) in it for. Brilliant Rangers, brilliant. |

As Simmo says I think it's a pretty flagrant attempt to remove opposition to the 3pm blackout.
I've always been in favour of it but am not any more, which is clearly entirely the point. |
