Barton got himself sent off for that one. If he wasn't near Johnson it wouldn't have happened. I was in Ellerslie for that game and caught Bradley Allen coming down from the gantry, where he was doing comms. I suggested that Barton was looking for some paternity leave, as he was a new dad. I think Brad laughed about it, but I could tell he didn't like Barton much either |

The physio and Dr's are not remote in Dubai are they, that wouldn't make any sense?
Its the head of performance and conditioning who is remote. From what I read he has built a team at the training ground who follow his leadership and ethos to maintain what was initiated last year.
--This is common practice in other industries. Build the team, teach the team, let the team perform with minimal interaction, unless you need to get stuck in again.
As for the other point, in the interviews I've seen from Marti, he is saying quite clearly that although we have picked up points we have not played well, and the squad needs to be strengthened in January. He has been pleased with the effort the players have been putting in. |

I reckon it would be easier, but I'm not sure how accurate it would be.
40 years ago QPR would have been seen as a bigger team than Chelsea, and Brentford, Brighton and Bournemouth all smaller.
There must be a point where looking at historical results would have little bearing on future outcomes? |

Wasn't Diof the "sewer rat"?
Warnock went on to sign him later...
Barton was just a massive bell end and very average footballer from what I saw |

Its a play on the phrase "Forever Ours"
Implying that the players will be forever ours in our hearts and memories.
A sense of belonging, I suppose.
"Former Ours"? Doesn't have the same cache imho |

Is it that puzzling?
Premier League Stoke, where the money was good and he was playing a few sub mins at most.
Or, lone striker for QPR in the Champ, playing two games a week, with a salary cap (say £15k p/w)? |

What do you mean by 'terrible'?
Is it pixelated or buffering?
Or, is it doing that funny movement, which makes everything on Netflix look hyper real? |

I thought Talksport was after he finished, I remember a lot of horse racing stuff, maybe that was pre-Australia? |

What was the "double job" from Charlie Austin?
I've missed the relationship there I think?
From what I saw in that final stint between him and Stef, once they signed that contract they barely did half a job for the rest of that season. |

I think it highlights the issue with a radical change in style and man management between coaches.
The type of motivation that GA used against Burnley worked for some of those players.
If the club cannot settle on a "type" of player and "style" of football then any coach is going to struggle to adapt his style to fit the current group of players.
It does feel like only QPR is capable of these complete collapses within a season, where a squad suddenly fall off a cliff
We've had these now under many many different managers and groups of players. The only constant is the club and owners.
Or do other clubs frequently go on record breaking streaks without winning or scoring? |

Oh dear...
I feel like we can see now how out of his depth he was.
Look at the difference to the recent interview with MW.
It's hard to see how we went from high expectations, with one of the bigger budgets in the Champ to "little old QPR, just lucky to be there" in such a short space of time |

Didn't Mark say he'd turned down Champ clubs?
Why would a L1 basket case with no money be more attractive?
--Not having a dig, just trying to be realistic.
I liked MW, I think his thoughts on our youth setup were correct at the time. Its a shame he didn't get to realise the new shared training ground, as this can/could really help get that development back on track.
OR, we decide that if the A* kids all want to sign for Chelsea and other AAA academies then we just scrap it all and pick up older cast offs and just run a B team.?? |

Yeah, its a bit weird.
Gibson did make a custom shop replica of the Yardburst, which sells for ~£10k still.
But, it doesn't look like the stripped finish from the Christies website...
https://willcuttguitars.com/cdn/shop/files/YB033-8_5000x.jpg?v=1720456122
I think its famously a two tone burst, from a cherry to tobacco.
I tend to think of the white strat as his main guitar;
But a lot of the photos, show a brass nut, and sometimes a floyd rose trem, so I reckon he had a few no.1's
Eitherway they are going to reach some big numbers. I wonder if they are selling off his hot rod collection as well? |
