    Yes, couldn't see the sense in that change.

    I didn't expect anything from this game and in the end we could've won it if we'd taken our chances. A draw was a fair result which is the least we deserved. 14 minutes of added on time? Don't think I've ever seen that before. Loved the way we fought back after going a goal down and the way we still tried to get a winner even at the end. It's great to see us fighting away from home, not something we saw a lot of last season.

    Should have been a red card. The Villa supporters are really ****, they deserve Big Racist Terry.
    Very good point, even though it could/should have been 3.

    This is the best QPR team for years, I’m so proud of the team/management.
    I owe Steve an apology I didn’t want him but I was wrong

    Predictions of a thumping on here before kick off, but once again, this resolute, rejuvenated rangers team earns something away from home against a promotion hopeful.

    I wanted to make pretty much this prediction, but couldn't contribute at that point. Not that I'm superstitious, but I realised we would earn something today when I picked up after my dog this morning. I can usually tell how a matchday will go based on how well I clean up after her. This morning's was, in theory, uncollectable, and at first glance, was a match loser, but I got the lot, along with a large clump of grass. I cheered as I bagged it, knowing we'd earn at least a point.

    10-15 minute later and I would have understood it. Smith is so static and we had nothing up top when he replaced Wells.

    Agree as soon as Smith came on we lost shape and conceded. He didn’t win many headers either.

    Shame we didn’t play like that against the fakes as we would have stuffed them.

    When you look at the worth of their front line.....Bolaise on loan but £25m from Palace to Everton........Albert the R's fan £3m......Abraham on loan from that lot down the road......worth what £10m in today's market.......Kodija the dirty bastard £12m and they still couldn't beat us.........

    There's an awful lot to like about our club and team at the moment.........

    Thought we played pretty well, a fully deserved point, 2 great goals scored. Their first was a bit soft with Abraham getting behind Leischner and ahead of Lumley, Lumley doesnt command his box quite welll enough for me, but looked to do well to stay on thd pitch after that boot to his face. Missed their equaliser.

    Just had a look at their first goal and our centre backs ( as well as they've been playing ) got it completely wrong. Furlong did well on the far side being goal side and holding off his man, but Leistner should've been in the same position with Abraham and not standing in front of him ball watching. Lynch is in no mans land defending ... well er, nothing. A very soft goal to give away as there was little threat and should easily have been nullified with rudimentary defending.

    I'm just waiting for Dean Smith to blame the ref for allowing our goals and not still be playing until they scored the winner.......

    Yeh, a couple of lost opportunities to get into the play-off zone. Shame, but not disgraced. This team has a lot going for it. Going to be an interesting rest of the season (and way more enjoyable than last season).

    The only time you need to be in the Play Off zone is after the last game of the season........stay under the radar until then, let all the experts talk about the top 6 and Villa, build up the pressure on them and then pounce at the end......simples....
