Don't get to see a lot of home games as a 4 hour trip down the M1 afterwards, and it felt a long way last night! 2 weeks ago after the Sheff Wed game I thought McCann was definitely settling in so important not to lose perspective completely after a couple of bad results, but must admit I found it worrying how much quicker and better coached QPR looked yesterday. In particular, our midfield continues to be a big problem. Stewart didn't have one of his better games but felt he was almost trying too hard whereas Honeyman and even more so Irvine were anonymous - seem to say that regularly about Irvine. I am no great fan of Henricksen but agree he would probably use the ball more carefully if in an attacking role. I'm sure the most talented number 10 in the club is Toral (whose pass for the second goal was better than anything the rest of the midfield managed all game). Just a question of whether he can stay fit and do it for 90 minutes, not as a cameo from the bench.
Sad as ever to see half the crowd leave when the third goal in with effectively 10 mins still to play, and barely anybody staying to clap the team off. Each to their own of course and its my choice to stay to the end, but must admit I find that apathy particularly crap when I know I'm not getting home until about 10 o'clock
Why would you clap off a poor performance? Applause is generally to say well done , I don’t condone booing or negative chanting , but no point just applauding any old ****e or it’s meaningless .

You're not wrong.

Difficult to find owt to applaud yesterday, either in terms of skill or effort.
 
He came across as a bit of **** yesterday.

Feigning cramp in the centre circle to slow the game down, milking applause on his own after team mates had long since trotted back into position, giving it the old double digit sky pointing crap, falling too easily, and illegal penalty run up.

I'm sure Fred and Rose West's neighbours thought they were a nice quiet couple too.

Blimey. Hang him then.

Perhaps he had cramp. He did run about a lot.

Can't ever recall a player going down with cramp when his team are losing.

DQPR have history for this stuff up here , copyrighted the book on timewasting over the years..

One of my favourite non PL games at the KCOM. Stuart Elliott punishes cynical DPQR who were down to ten men as usual for gobbing off/persistent infringements/timewasting.

QPR are joint third
Anyone say they were a really good team? needed two penalties to beat us a team who were dog **** on the day
Wednesday a team we beat are eighth just off the play offs.
Terry is either going to adapt quickly or he’s gone.

I agree. Apart from Eze QPR were predictable and average. Sadly we were predictable and well below average.

I don't think you have to be that good to do well in this league , they at least kept possession of the ball and could pass to their own team
we got the ball and launched it long or passed to the opposition.

Eaves seems to get fouled a lot, though. Because of his size he doesn't get much in the way of calls from the ref, I've seen some players literally hanging off him and get given a foul.

He shouldn't have been taken off though, he was doing well.
 
Yes, he was. He's been good for the rest of the season, but playing him yesterday was a mistake after he'd been all the way around the world. Poor bloke must be knackered.

TBF ... 99% of players would likely say they're fit to play. A good manager with the likes of Batty in reserve, would say, thanks for standing up, but sit down. If we go 3 up you can come on after an hour...

Exactly, I suspect it was a sign of naivety. He didn't have to deal with too many internationals at Doncaster.
 
1st defeat here against the dramas since 14 Feb 1970.

Was that the game in the snow where Simmo got booked for hacking showboating Romney Marsh and the ball was orange?
