This time last year (and even more at 5pm the following day) I lived in fear for the season. This time I'm even more gloomy. But this is QPR, the last time I felt this way Warnock took us up.
Remember how pissed off and disappointed most were at signing Ryan Nelson ? He proved his worth if I remember correctly? Hoping we are proved wrong again….as you say, it’s the Rangers way
Derry, Mackie and Clint Hill were three of the most underwhelming signings ever. Going to need the same from Colback, Smyth and Fox.
Looks like everyone's got us nailed on for Div1,and it's hard to see any other outcome..let's hope we can prove them all wrong and scrape through to safety..now that's a depressing thought just before a balls been kicked..COYRs!!!
@QPR999 ......... Ismael Miller !! Can’t remember why we were talking about him but it’s taken me all week to remember his name
I think it was us trying to remember “that bloke” who scored a late goal against Leicester....Someone may have answered while I was having my 730th loo break
The doctor concurs with your prognosis on the alcohol. Only last night, l was self medicating on my prescription.
Looking at the weather forecast, it may have a big impact on the game. That said, it’s more likely to affect our hoofball than their neat passing game.
The bookies have us binned... There is a packed Championship schedule on Saturday - QPR won only four of their last 30 matches last season QPR stayed up by the skin of their teeth last season and face Watford in their season opener on Saturday, who have brought in Valerien Ismael as their new manager over the close season. Watford vs QPR (Saturday, 3pm) Bet 1: Watford to win QPR battled against the drop for much of last season, with their form taking a major dip around the time of the World Cup. They look to have a weaker squad this time than they did in 2022-23 and were recently beaten 5-0 in a pre-season friendly by Oxford. The R’s are dealing with an injury crisis in defence that means that they have just one senior central defender fit for this clash. Watford have made some shrewd signings over the summer and should be better than they were last time around, they can win this one. Bet 2: Over 2.5 goals With QPR’s injury issues at the back, it is likely that this could become a high-scoring clash and there have been nine goals in the last three head-to-heads between this pair. Only Blackpool conceded more goals than the R’s last season and over 2.5 goals is the play in this one. Bet 3: Ryan Porteous to be shown a card Ryan Porteous was a solid addition to the Watford backline but his reputation from Scotland preceded him and he continued his tendency to attract the attention of the referee in the Championship. The former Hibs man was booked 12 times across stints at both clubs last season and looks likely to pick up where he left off this time around. Back Watford to win, over 2.5 goals and Porteous to be shown a card any time at 7/1 with LiveScore Bet
Goodness, can't remember the last time I enjoyed the football not being on so much. I'm more optimistic than most of you about our chances this year and I'm very worried still
