Oh another thought, if a player/manager playing gets sent off can he still stay in the dugout as the manager?
And last thought, if a player/manager names himself as a sub but as a manager gets sent to the stands can he still come back as a sub and play?
Well, we'll find out tomorrow what's happening but I think unless Ollie does offer to go he'll stay till the end of the season. It would be a tough ask for a new manager to come in with nothing available to strengthen the sqaud. As usual, we are timing this as meticulously as possible to shoot ourselves in the foot. Next three home games are Barnsley, Bolton and Forest, all winnable if Ollie gets the tactics right, nine points by the end of February would have us close to safety...
Don't know about anybody else, but I am sick of this season already. But, mug that I am, I will be there on Saturday, even if it is only to justify my season ticket!
Just had a good read through this post,gotta say guys you looked very good going forward very quick indeed.What you need is a goal scorer. I have seen many worse sides in the championship come to Ashton Gate. Yes we have wobbled over the four league games,having played three massive games against the Manchester clubs in between. Now we are out of the cup full attention is now on promotion. We will give it a good go for that second spot,You will finish quite comfortable come then end.Remember us last season 10 games without winning,look how LJ turned it around this season.Sometimes it is better to stick than twist.
Just read through this thread. I think Col might be right about Olly walking tomorrow but I think 9s is absolutely correct that he cannot survive a loss against Barnsley. There are not that many winnable games that will take us to safety. Thank God for the early,unexpected points at the start of the season! It's all rather sad that it has come to this. But, I will be there on Saturday and renewing in due course.
I hope we smash that Barnsley lot I reckon we should go and take over their forum Bloody northern monkeys
Clive's report is up. Although some will say it is a good report I don't think it goes far enough. It's like he his holding back at times. it's lucky they don't get me to do it. 2 points that stand out for me is that I forgot they had just played City and were tired an the mention of the Luton 9 man game. Sadly Clive forgot to mention the stupid subs that were made that day as well.
Nice to have a view that is well away from the emotion of being a QPR fan. We do as good build up play as anyone in this division but with very little end product. Our shape is fine imo and has the basis of a good side if we start scoring our taking our chances. I agree that we stick until it clicks and really not keen on a change just to get a few points We were never ever going to fully challenge and won’t until we get stable. The fans aren’t helping by shouting for blood because we have had two poor results We have Barnsley next at home then Wolves away no reason why we can’t get 4 points imo but that remains to be seen. I think we will see a lot of passion shown against Barnsley. Boro and Bristol to me are currently looking the best sides and I have to add in Fulham who unfortunately for us are playing the best style of football Let’s hope little Smith is ready to return as he looks very good. We are not a poor side imo
10 men + 2-0 + 60% (T) + Away = ? On form team did us So what? No disgrace in that just a set of frustrated fans getting used to reality after being in a dream for 6 years
We are a striker (and confidence) away from an okay team. I will certainly give you that. But where are we going to get a striker? And where are we going to get Confidence?
We must start with a good striker and providing him with good supply. What is the latest with Smyth? When is Eze going to get a start? Where the hell has Shodipo disappeared to?
A chicken,and egg situation that unfortunately-Start scoring then the rest should follow on.Not sure what you have striker wise,we have been struggling with injuries we have had our two main guys out for months,Fammy just came back what a difference he has made to us,plus Diony just arrived who looks a class act.We been crying out for someone to take the pressure of Bobby Reid upfront.
