Just wondering who our defence coach is? Is It part of the job spec to concede two goals a game?Passing out from the back is pretty but sometimes (as we saw today) a big fat boot through the ball wouldn’t go amiss.
Don’t get me wrong, this season is truly enjoyable compared to some of the recent stuff we have had to endure . I am sure Mr Warburton is also looking at our leaky defence but one can muse over these things after being at a cold wet Kiyan Prince Foundation Stadium and seeing our clumsy defence play tipper tapper. |  | | |  |

May have been covered but have we ever conceded 2 or more goals in 8 consecutive matches?
I can’t recall this happening in all the time I’ve been coming here. |  | | |

It is actually part of the job spec and is due to be picked up on in pre season training next season. [Post edited 10 Nov 2019 16:44]

Zest Rehman is the defensive coach I believe. | | | |

Yeah, QPR went on quite a run of conceding goals starting with Jan Stejskal's debut (if I remember correctly) up at Leeds United in 1990. At least 2 goals were conceded for 9 consecutive games.

I wondered the same thing on the match thread yesterday. IIRC last season under Mclaren it was John Eustace, but I don't know if that's still the case. | | | |

Think its more the system than the defence - teams just seem to find it so easy to get through to the magic 'final third'
Obviously when your forward lays the ball on a plate to their striker, not much the defence or a whole fleet of coaches can do about it!
Or when Eze tried to control a ball coming out of the sky on the edge of his own penalty box WITH HIS HEAD.
The 'No after YOU Claude' moment between Manning and Wallace is also difficult to 'coach out'
Its bloody entertaining though
If you're a pessimist you worry if we stop scoring we're going to get a tanking , if you're an optimist you're dreaming of the that 4-0 stroll! | | | |

Blimey, you’re right, remember that run now. Was that when we got Darren Peacock in from Hereford and arrested the slide?
Noticed the words Gus and Caesar mentioned in that squad too.
Have a look at that Wikipedia link, the record of 9 games set by Forest. If we set a new record it’ll be against....... Forest!
Spooky. | | | |

Yes I believe that is indeed when we got Peacock (and Tilson) in to arrest the slide. Remember a Gus Caesar inspired 3-0 drubbing away at Wimbledon (my first ever away game) shortly before we signed Peacock [Post edited 10 Nov 2019 20:33]

was that the run where we lost 2-1 at city, and pissed them off at the end by serenading them with (To the tune of 'blue moon')
"2-1, you only beat us 2-1, and all the others got three, you only beat us 2-1"
could have been 2-0 | | | |

We need a solid no nonsense player who can kick it into row Z (Danny Shittu is still under the age of 40 years old). | | | |

That was the game. Think it was Sinton scored for us while we were singing.
"2-0
You only beat us... (Sinton scores)....2-1.."
In fairness, a lot of the City fans clapped that. |  |
