    He doesn't "put it about". He regularly pulls out of challenges.
    Really don't want to see him next season.

    If those figures are true - and I don't doubt you on that - they are ridiculous. I have little real knowledge of player wages but I've lived under the impression that a young youth product might be on £2k a week and a player towards the top end in the Championship might get £20k a week (which I once heard was the maximum that QPR pay). It looks to have been poor judgement to have paid those quoted figures for Adomah and Dozzell. Surely we can get better value for that sort of money?

    I apologise everyone, it looks like my reputed players salaries were well short according to Hammersmiths post.

    Dozzell seems to have a good agent, hopefully one that can find him a new club.

    If those wage stats are correct maybe that explains a possible rift in the team. Dozzell paid more than Dykes and Dieng collectively or the same as Kakay and Chair put together.

    I think I’d be seriously unhappy if I put in a regular shift at work to see a largely useless colleague earning double.

    Saw this on FB from someone called Denise Elizabeth Latner.
    I’m a Lifelong QPR fan from a family of QPR fans . Because of moving etc I haven’t been to a game in 10 years. Last year I was very ill so decided to start doing things I’d put off and going to a match at Loftus Road was on the list.
    Unfortunately I chose yesterday to go.
    I’ve seen some great games and some bad results both home and away but I’ve never seen such a lacklustre performance from everyone. A keeper who stood and watched two soft goals trickle past him. Defence who seemed confused. Forwards who were in great positions but couldn’t finish the job. Even the crowds were quiet despite the full house.
    I watched GA’s post match interview . He’s spot on. QPR are not the team they were. I wasn’t watching a Championship game. They were outclassed, outrun and shown up yesterday.
    I hope GA is brave and gets the backing he needs to remove most if not all of the team who clearly don’t have the desire to play for us.
    The club is bigger than the players and I’ll always be QPR but we fans deserve better than what I saw yesterday

    Field may be above average in a poor f team. That’s not to say he would be above average in a good team either.
    Would be a shame to lose him for sure. Seems ideal to develop into a leader and captain if you’re a good manager.

    If those salaries are anything near true the top 8 can go leaving at least some wiggle room.
    Three certainly gone as loans. Can’t see Balogun staying. Four down. Already talk of Stefan moving on. Amos finishing his contract. Six down.
    So probably Albert as our top earner <doh> and Dozell behind him <doh><doh><doh>
    Where’s Dixon-Bonner if he’s not on the bench. Is Kelman that poor? Is Masterson no longer required? Why is Hammalamadingdong still here?
    WTF.
    DoF really does have some questions to answer.

    Thanks for posting. It's hard to believe that the list is accurate but I have no reason to disbelieve you. Those rankings are truly bewildering and bear no resemblance to the individual values we have seen on the pitch this season or, indeed, in recent seasons. Of course, the timing of deals being struck will always create some anomalies but whoever agreed those deals is completely out of their mind and should never be given that responsibility again. For example, to see Dieng, Dykes, Chair and Field - undeniably amongst our best players - well into the bottom half of that list is not just going to undermine team harmony but is actually a recipe for serious aggro. (You can be sure that players have a fair idea of who gets what.)

    Rangers would finish the game without registering a single shot on target. Like hosting a birthday party for a five-year-old and sticking on that episode of Chernobyl where they go around shooting all the dogs. <laugh>

    QPR did an hour here with Chris Martin up front, and only took him off when they did because if a land mass this vast stays this sedentary for this long you run the risk of somebody colonising it <laugh><laugh>

    A “lap of appreciation” featuring all the stars of the year gone by saw Taylor Richards’ mum surpass her son’s pitch time at Loftus Road this season <laugh><laugh><laugh>

    Pretty much summed it all up.
    The worst thing for me was that we still didn't try to play some attacking football in front of a sell out crowd, when we had nothing to lose.
    I fear next season will be every bit as torturous.
