What a man !!
Awful family circumstances - his dad passing away this week..
Could not have been that old ie Jimmy is mid 20s I assume.
Perfectly reasonable not to play today but a man of the match performance.
Not only scored - it had to be - but shortly after made a wonder challenge with a Norwich forward through on goal.
Was also up against their star man and he was well controlled.
Definitely deserves to be a fans favourite but that performance today, especially given his circumstances was iconic.
A true Ranger.
Well done Jimmy. You did your old man proud today..
Incredible.... [Post edited 7 Dec 19:00]

Another 'top man' & important player for the Team & Club, proper player, not always got the quality but never shirks his responsibilities......one of the first on the team-sheet.
As for his Father.....my deepest condolences to him. |  | | |

When you read that article about his dad, you realise why Jimmy is the type of character he is.
A very impressive young man and a real chip off the old block. One of those players you are proud to have on our team.
Thanks for posting qprmeath21. |  | | |

A brilliant performance today, given the circumstances. You won’t see many better tackles than his today, we were looking across the pitch and thought Saiinz was through, unbelievable recovery and tackle. He may not be the most gifted player, but you can never question his commitment to the cause.
My grandson’s favourite player, a top man!

He made a mistake that lead to goal a few games ago. Stopped doing that and corrected his game. This means he's learned and is more intelligent than he looks.
I call this being a first-class professional.
Consistently, he wins headers from decent corners, meaning he must be one of the best headers of the ball in the Champ. Despite limited attacking skills, he tries to impact the game by dribbling, playing 1-2s, through balls, overlapping runs (don't laugh at the back; it's true he does these), headers on from goal kicks, and sometimes, he even crosses the ball!
Yet despite his limited attacking skills, when he does these moves, he actually impacts the game better than many so-called flair players.
Hes pro.
My worry is what about his contract?
I would rather keep Dunne than Paal. |  |

Sorry, downvoted by mistake when I meant to do the opposite. I agree with everything you’ve written and would be very disappointed if we lose him when his contract expires. | | | |

He's got guts, commitment and plays with beauty in his own way. Deserves a new contract, and I hope he gets one.
As for prostate cancer, having been through a bit of a palaver with it, guys, do get checked annually - regular PSA tests, biopsy if needed. My grandpa died of it, and it's a serious killer, but usually treatable if caught early. |  |

An honest player, and appears to be a decent and honest human being.
Also seems to truly relish what we'd all love to do; being a professional footballer. That is one of the first things i look for in players and has developed his game to become an effective, if not conventional, right back.
brilliant effort to play this week in such difficult and emotional times. Sincere condolences to him and his family. |  | | |

Absolutely love Jimmy Dunne. Honest as the day is long. Reliable. Weighs in with much needed goals.
And plays the way he did, despite his sad personal circumstances.
May God Rest The Poor Soul of Mr. Dunne senior. |  | | |

According to WLS, the club has yet to discuss a new contract for Dunne https://www.westlondonsport.com/qpr/no-conversations-with-qpr-star-about-new-con
I wouldn't think that's unusual and there are a dozen or so players in the same boat. But even if Dunne isn't quite the type of player Marti would choose at RB/CB, he must still be wanted for everything he brings to the side. |  | | |

Thought he did really well to hold it together on Saturday. A measure of the man.
RIP Eamonn Dunne |  | | |

I'm sure he'll get a new deal, been a really important player for us since January |  | | |

I agree Dave. Not sure why the delay though. Jimmy seems to like it at QPR, is happy, the fans love him, he's an important player for us... [Post edited 9 Dec 10:44]

I like Dunne - I still have doubts about his abilities and pace but his commitment can’t be questioned and that slide challenge was perfect
Btw what was varane thinking in build up to that?!?? |
If you have doubts about his pace watch how quick he is chasing down Cooks man for that goal saving tackle,
I've always thought he had pace over distance after he chased down Dembele away @ Peterboro,
Given his size likely not the quickest over 5 yards but was up against their best player on Saturday, got tight and used his physicality to nullify the Norwich wingers 5 yard pace advantage. | | | |
