Injury Updates

Indeed which is why I listed the predicted come back games, waiting for JCS is the one that really hurts.

We have to hope that the slightly improved Leeds performance continues on Saturday although we never seem to do well after the International breaks.

Good to see the cavalry arriving in dribs and drabs. The two we really need are Colback and JCS. Colback will be back for Watford and Frey Norwich. JCS should be back for Bristol City, six games away.

Unfortunately, those returning will only be playing around 60 minutes initially and we have to really hope that the future injury list is miniscule. With full availability Marti has the opportunity to recreate last season’s great escape.

RIP Vic Flck and John Prescott

Rest In Peace John Prescott and Vic Flick

Vic was a session musician who played on hundreds of records including the original James Bond theme. Here is a fun five minutes of Vic selling his guitar on Pawn Stars.

Now it ´s started, Gregory Vignal
at 23:48 12 Nov 2024

If there is any truth in this Vignal story then it's taking the club up another level of lunacy.

It's almost as if this guy has cheated a career out of professional football averaging 12.23 appearances a season over 13 years for 14 different clubs.

His subsequent career in coaching and management is similarly impressive.

He holds a UEFA Pro Licence, so what? People study law for six years and qualify but that doesn't make them a great lawyer and they certainly wouldn't walk in to a top job at virtually the beginning of their careers.

Our owners are naive in football matters but presumably not stupid. The article photograph shows Vignal playing in a Liverpool Legends match and I bet most people standing on the Kop wouldn't have a clue who he was, 11 appearances ten years ago.

Dear Ruben and Co if your football minded CEO is putting this guy's name in front of you then you really should be removing him rather than gambling the clubs future on a Head Coach rookie.

What we need is better players

Without the injuries, especially to Colback and JCS, then we are a 16th placed team.

When the injured players return I fully expect our form and results to improve.

One slight little problem is these players remaining fit throughout the remainder of the season.

At 1-0 and us going forward in the latter stages of the game I could hear the Elland Road crowd getting restless on the stream.

We really should have taken one of our chances but the way we defended for the second goal, as you say, we were destined to lose.

Marti is not the manager but the Head Coach. I notice that Coventry have said that they will be recruiting a new Head Coach rather than manager.

Head coach suggests less input in to player recruitment, work with what you are given. I guess football is changing, evolving but in my world I don't see anything other than a Head Coach/manager having the final word in signing a player to avoid any potential personality clash for starters.

Do players have the same respect for Head Coaches as they do managers or do they head to the football minded CEO and complain about the coaching?

Yes I get that Clive but am still missing something.

Andy Belk is head of recruitment with our football minded CEO.

Taking the head of recruitment job title literally what is does Nourry mean by Belk having ''more responsibility.''

Does it mean Belk's player recommendations carry more weight?
Does it mean he is getting involved in other things outside of his remit?

What is the ''more responsibility''

This part had slipped my mind and needs further clarification.

'' a head of recruitment (Andy Belk) who has perhaps more responsibility here than you would see in other football clubs at this level.”

I think the current negative feelings are exacerbated by what might have been under Fernandes tenure with Mittal’s money. The fact that he so gloriously messed it up and that perhaps we can’t completely move on as his mate Ruben is now running the show.

Like many things in life football success is cyclical and one day it will be our turn once again.

Should the worst happen and we drop down to League 1 well I have to say that my happiest times of being a fifty plus year QPR fan were in League 1 with Ollie.

Currently I am unsure of how I would feel about AFC Queens Park Rangers should it rise from the ashes.

How do you think you would feel about it?

He really should not answer that question as there is no positive answer.

If he replies yes then he is saying to everyone I think there's a possibility of relegation.

If you had asked me this question on Tuesday night I would have agreed with you. If you had asked me this question on Wednesday morning I would have agreed with you even more as in the cold light of day that Middlesborough performance was completely unacceptable from players and coaches alike.

Tonight, I am feeling a little more optimistic as I thought we did ok today. Not a popular opinion I know! We still didn't score, our defending was awful for their second, but overall I thought we did ok.

In the first half we restricted them to a scrambled goal. Yes I know they had way more possession than us, hit the bar etc but it means nothing, Dunne went close for us, we restricted them to one scrambled goal.

In the second half we pretty much held our own. Sam Field should have scored. Celar should have scored, he had so much time to pick his spot. Watching on the stream I could feel the tension rising at Elland Road as we attacked a little more, there was an audible groan from the Leeds fans as Madsen played Lloyd in behind.

We lost, we didn't score but bearing in mind it's Leeds away with a threadbare team I think we did ok so feel a little more positive.

Play the same against Stoke and Cardiff after the break and we should get something although against Stoke we have to try and break those invisible shackles that restrict us so badly at home.

Initially I thought the second was down to us pressing forward but if you look at the replay, side view, we are 8 v 4 but still manage to concede.

I don't know how to post photos, sorry.
