True. We always seem to think that “the grass is greener on the other side of the fence”.

But this has led us a merry dance of “one step forward and three steps back”.

Indeed, “hindsight is a wonderful thing”, but “we have made our bed and need to sleep in it”.

Now I have run out of proverbs to this reply.

To summarise, we have messed things up badly and now we are where we are! :)

So should we just accept the inevitable then, or continue trying to get it right eventually?

Here’s a thought. What about bringing in Warnock alongside Ainsworth?
Ainsworth can still do his bit on the training field and all the happy clappy motivation stuff. But Warnock does tactics, picks the side and set up.
They could sell it as an experienced guy to help Ainsworth out.
And if Ainsworth doesn’t like it and walks out, great.
Have I just cracked it - or am I cracking up?

Love the idea, can't see Ainsworth going for it though. Only hope is if he has VERY fond memories of working under Warnock with us.

Is there something special about QPR fans or do all supporters think mainly in terms of past managers when the current one is ****?

We just need someone who can give these players a shape and some purpose. Currently I imagine it’s just like the U13s at school - you are given a position but absolutely no guidance about how to play, where to put the ball, how to use space etc. what the **** Dobson has in his ring binder is beyond me. He was giving Kakay a guided tour (holiday pics?) before he came on with about 15 minutes to go at 4-0 down. Laughable.

Exactly. You hear of other managers giving detailed instructions, based on research made on how the other team play, and how certain players tend to play. The approach at the moment seems to be one way, negative, and we stick to it even when it clearly isn't working. Yesterday was painful to watch, but why no changes were made until the 71st minute is beyond me. Too little too late.

I just think there are very few at this level with Colin’s record, Stan. Not sure he’s ever failed at the foot of the Championship. I recall him turning little Rotherham into a well oiled unit a few years back. Contract to the end of the season and let him do his thang. Seemples.

Steve Evans wouldn’t be the worst option if he was an option at all. People would turn their noses up a bit but he gets results.

Presumably they're being discussed because two are available currently.
I wouldn't want Warburton, but Warnock I'd take back in a heartbeat.

Nathan Jones anyone.
We would really hate him, so would the players initially...but bet you we wouldn't be relegated
