Yours would be a fair enough point if we had seen some consistent and tangible positive effects during Black’s time at the club rather than, barring a few exceptions, joyless, half-witted, tepid and tentative performances from the most lacklustre, unmotivated and disinterested rabble I can ever remember in 50 years of watching the R’s.
Not saying sports psychologists can never help but motivation works in mysterious ways. For Black and that squad at Loftus Rd it was obviously a mystery too far. [Post edited 9 Sep 2015 7:22]

As for yesterday’s international equivalent of Dagenham v Crawley Town, played on something akin to my mum’s allotment, Woy’s West Bromwich England tour of Europe’s distant outposts can’t end soon enough. Give me strength.
Said allotment would be the last place I’d like to have seen Charlie test his remaining ligament. That creative genius Milner glided over the surface perfectly however. |

Out of desperation for a bit of semi-meaningful footy and against my better judgement, just sat through that Wales v Israel nonsense. 2 hours I’ll never get back.
International breaks - I shit em. |

Didn't see or follow match but assume Toilet was Toilet? (surprise). CR's comments seem thinly veiled towards him in particular. |

Sky+ and a fast forward button. A button also activated regularly for MOTD's Sheararse, Savage, Ian Wright!, and the whole host of other monosyllabic halfwits employed since Hansen legged it. "that's shocking punditry." |

I met Terrence (Waterman) a few times when I worked as a tape op at DJM studios, late 70s. DJM records was the label which released said Minder theme song.
He was always absolutely pissed as a fart. |

Whatever his views - hit or miss (usually hit) - Disco's word invention or turn of phrase is/was absolutely off the scale, bordering on genius, not to mention the regular nostalgia nudges & nurdles. Evocative, colourful, creative. A wasted talent if his skills are not employed at least somewhere on a regular basis. All I know is this forum won’t be the same. |

I’ve been going on about Serrant for the last two years.
Redknapp after 5 games of last season: "Joey and Jordon have both got hamstrings, and Sandro did his knee yesterday. At one stage I couldn't pick a team. Took a little gamble on Joey and Jordon. Mutch had a bit of a groin, but now he's done his hamstring as well.” Faurlin, Barton, Mutch, Sandro, Taarabt - all knacked at the time, with the list growing.
And this is what Redknapp was spouting over two years ago on this same issue: “Pre-season is a vitally important period. We’ll need fit players, players that can play week in, week out. There’s some players we know we can get fitter than they were last year - there’ll be no excuses. Some of the lads looked overweight and not as fit as they should be last season. Their weights have got to be right and their fitness levels have got to be high.”
Whatever else is happening with the team, the failure of this aspect is inexcusable. These are highly paid professionals at a supposedly professional football club preparing to perform in the top league in the world (last year) and the most physically demanding (this year). The least they can do is be ready.
I give you… Carl Serrant - an English former footballer and current fitness coach, for Queens Park Rangers. (Official description: ‘Strength & Conditioning’)
Says Carl: “The modern player is more physically aware - they tend to be more athletic than years ago and are more conscious of maintaining their fitness during the off-season so they can return ready to train.”
Well that’s ok then Carl, hope you had a nice holiday too. |
