We never win as favorites so I pleased we are seen as under dogs in every game these days. We are the dark horse these days
I think it will be a good game with a cracking atmosphere. Probably too close to call...wouldn't be surprised if it was any of the 3 possible results tbh.
I just hope we don't blowout ourselves in the first 15 mins.. We'll come out hard, an early toon goal could affect morale/take the sting out of the crowd
Just what I was thinking mate. We could really do with an early goal that's for sure. Should be a cracking atmosphere at KO!
Im quite concerned about this game tbh. I feel we are playing QPR at the worst time. They have a great new owner by the looks of it, a real feel good factor around the place after a flurry of activity on the transfer front which can only excite their fans. Teams with pace usually trouble us, and if SWP and Taarabt go on a few mazy runs early on, they could get their confidence up and cause us problems throughout the game. Then their is obviously the 'Barton factor' which cannot be ignored. However, if Tiote is anywhere near his best Barton won't get a sniff. Thing for QPR fans to be aware of though is we can be master spoilers away from home. We can grind out results when we don't particular play that well. The first goal tomorrow is MASSIVE. If QPR get it, and get it early we face an uphill struggle. But if we get it, we can spoil the atmosphere, and hopefully kick on.
We're obviously biased but I dont think it's too much to say he's one of the best defensive midfielders in the league.
"Special guest" before kick off, first home game under the new ticket structure, first home game without Flav+Bernie- feels a bit like it did before leeds last season!
Most of us seem to think Joey will be played in a holding role too, so maybe their paths won't cross that much. Having said that, none of us really know what formation we will go with now we have all these new signings to fit in!
He's had pretty much every midfield in his back pocket when he's played, Chelsea have been constantly sniffing round him but he turned them down twice now if you believe reports. He's one of ours to watch out for
