Sorry. I'll stop now,. Watch the Saito/Smyth video again as an antidote.

I actually feel more cheerful as what we're building now feels so much better than those slightly grubby days.

Yes but not for the money I'm guessing he was on.

Plus he had the same number of assists as Saito has (3) in 2013/14 season and one goal more (2) and he was playing with Charlie Austin and we went up that year!

I think he was totally in it for the money.

Incidentally and completely as an aside, it's amazing how many ageing/crocked/attitude issues players one manager could sign in such a short period of time. I'm sure their host clubs/agents were very grateful to our favourite cheeky chappie.

Samba, Caulker, Fer, Mutch, Jenas, Maiga, Ravel Morrison, Sandro, Will Keane, Rio Ferdinand, Zarate, Krancjar, Assou-Ekottu, Carroll, Aaron Hughes, Isla, Vargas.

That's just the ones I remember but 38 players in two and a half years - a few decent ones like Remy and Dunne but a LOT of dross.

New Year transfer window rumours
at 07:13 29 Jan 2025

I wonder if he might be potentially plan A if Paal moves on? Whenever he came on before he looked like he had good attributes, physicality and decent pace, but just looked inexperienced in terms of positioning and knowledge. But as he's getting precious playing time and good reviews up there he may be a replacement?

Abuse in modern football
at 23:03 28 Jan 2025

Absolutely spot on. Also aspects of the media stirring up emotions to get clicks or viewers. On my browser home page most articles are designed to get us furious about NHS mistakes or people paying tax they don't want to or people not paying tax they don't want to or politicians just because. It's not surprising people are becoming so angry.

I genuinely have seen more scuffles between middle aged commuters on the train home than I have at football though. Perhaps I've just been lucky.

You load of cynics.

It's absolutely fantastic that a young guy with obvious promise wants to stay after all the ones that fled. I think it's a bit to do with the Ebs legacy. However this guy progresses it's good news!

If you need even more QPR content as well as Hoopsa, LFW, Hoops and Dreams and Open All Rs, all of which I enjoy, this is another one hosted by a Sheff Wed fan but discussing mainly QPR with two of our fans. There's a weekly feature putting together an all time worse Qpr team.

Marti's remarks on the ref
at 13:45 28 Jan 2025

If he thinks a player goes to ground too easily then it's not a freekick. If the ref believed it was a FK in that position running into the area then it's a booking. I'd say that even when it was a QPR defender.

Rare that Chair retaliates or Dunne gets into fisticuffs It always happens when a ref doesn't have full control.

He was poor and Wednesday took full advantage.

Marti's remarks on the ref
at 12:21 28 Jan 2025

I'm surprised you're holding that line when at one point Paterson blatantly pushes Chair off the ball, then Chair and him get in a tussle for the ball with admittedly some shoving and Paterson goes down clutching his face which was not remotely touched. Guess who got booked?

Are you actually saying that players shouldn't get booked for an obvious foul in a dangerous area because the person they foul sometimes dives? If so that's absurd. It's either FK or it isn't, a cardable offence or it isn't and that shouldn't change depending on which team fouls, who moans the most or who is better at conning the ref.

They deserved to win but the referee was inconsistent and weak and I thought that well before they scored.

Sky interviewer pre-match actually complimented him on being known for playing stylish, attractive football (paraphrasing but similar words). Shurely on a bet...

It's the bookings that make the difference as per Clive's report. Ref books our player then doesn't book theirs for a similar offence they can take more risk to tackle or deliberately pull back because they haven't already been booked..

There comes a point where the ref loses control of the match as happened midway through the second half where both sides just fouled each other. I didn't think he had authority over the game which affects the match win or lose.

Paterson also did a number on us. When he got Chair booked by blatantly shoving him off the ball and then went down clutching his face in the ensuing run and tussle down the line I had a bad feeling. The 5ft 7 Chair would have needed a chair to elbow the 6ft tall Paterson.

Just not our day. We looked jaded and they made it really hard to break through their lines.

Our dead ball deliveries were not at their best either so we couldn't get enough pressure on Wednesday. We didn't get enough players in and around their box so Frey was isolated..

Still I think most of us would have taken six points from this week. And we're still on track.
