Nardi's shot stopping
at 23:22 28 Sep 2024

He stops a lot of shots, and makes good saves, but he seems to always push the ball back in to the central area rather than out wide, as keepers are normally taught to do. if you push the ball wide towards the corner the need for a secondary save becomes less likely.

i think this is something that is a goalkeeping basic, and something easily coachable, but maybe i'm wrong.

Anyone ever got season ticket and then wanted change - moaners behind you ??
at 11:31 25 Aug 2024

braver than me. me and my dad moved our tickets because the two men behind us just didn't shut up berating the players. lowlights included one pre-match screaming at other people near them who were suggesting Taarabt should start (this was Redknapp fiasco times) then after seven minutes - 7 - were screaming at Redknapp to make a substitution and bring Taarabt on. later in the game Austin missed a penalty and they gave him endless dogs abuse. I turned round and said "that's Charlie Austin (mk1)" and they started having a go at me.

anyway, lovely seats now. nice bunch around us, even the two people who are obsessed with Paal not getting close enough to the opposition winger when the ball is on the far side of the pitch. going to be a long season for them.

Positives from today….

i felt - might be alone - that Smyth played well. He was competing all game and whipping balls in which were getting deflected for corners, which is at least better than knocking them straight into touch.

I think when Dunne played higher up the pitch we were more dangerous, and he had a good shot well saved.

The big issue was who we have to come off the bench to change the game, which at the moment i'd say is no-one. but with 4 more additions then suddenly that looks different.

Birmingham Sack John Eustace
at 20:16 9 Oct 2023

in, i think 2019, i met John Eustace at the training ground when i was getting a tour. he was in whatever you call the video room and had just finished a talk about Ipswich, who we were playing away that weekend. i don't know much about tactics but asked him what sort of thing he had said and he showed me two videos - one where he thought Ipswich were defensively weak, and one where he thought they were offensively strong. he told me the - very simple - ideas he had for dealing with both situations. i went to the game that saturday and we scored one exactly as he said we would and dealt with the attacking threats brilliantly. anecdotal, but from that moment on i've always thought if he could explain to me - an idiot - what was going on, and i understood it, then he must be great for a room of professionals.

Novels that mention QPR

it's been 20 odd years since i read it, but i think that in David Baddiel's first novel Time For Bed the protagonist is a rangers fan.
