    I've changed my vote, was waiting to see the outcome of the last two matches. It's been dire and if anything, getting worse game by game. I fear for Saturday, it will be goals galore for Leicester.

    I'm immensely saddened by the current situation. I like Ainsworth and can't join in the abuse he's getting, but he's clearly out of his depth and for all our sakes I'd like to see him gone. If the board was going to act the obvious time was after the Blackburn game, so I'm bewildered as to why they've let it go for another three games at least. Perhaps there really is something in the conspiracy theory about them wanting to see us relegated and to regroup in Div1 with different FFP rules.

    Rumours doing the rounds that the club is in talks with Gary Rowett and possibly one other manager.

    Maybe scrap the above. I've just spoken to a mate who saw an interview with him. He said that he and Millwall were in mutual agreement to him leaving and that he and the club are on good terms. He has been away from his family for four years and promised to take his son skiing in December and that he wanted to take some time out of the game and might come back and do some punditry before considering another coaching role.

    Shame.Though he is hardly exciting Rowett has a very solid record in the Championship.

    Thinking about the upcoming Leicester game. The only upside I can see is if we get the huge battering we're expecting, the board would have no choice but to axe him. Anything else - a brave but narrow defeat, a tedious draw - and he's going to be in charge until we're done for.
    I've never felt this way before, and I'm almost ashamed to admit it, but I'd rather we get beat 5 or 6 than by the odd goal. That way, he'll either be fired or perhaps might do the honourable thing and walk and we could have Warnock in charge for the Rotherham game

    The last 3 games just based on tactics alone is enough for any fan, player, board member, owner to realise that Ainsworth is totally out of his depth at this level.
    Blackburn, playing a unproven left back at right back whilst having 2 on the bench!
    Huddersfield, taking our only striker off whilst losing, to play your right wing back up top but wait for it......for 10 mins before moving him back to the position he's played all season!
    West Brom, going with eleven men behind the ball and having no intention to play football nevermind trying to win and then claiming we were good!!
    The bloke is beyond deluded, the owners must be on crack or something to think this is going well.

    GA's insistence that he didn't want any loan players is hurting us. I agreed with him we didn't want an over-reliance on loans but wouldn't a Tim Iroegbunam have been useful now? Oh and a striker.

    I hope for the first time ever that we get smashed saturday. I was willing for more goals last night. This is the worst QPR side I have ever seen in the last 45 years. No fight no skill no plan no desire. What other club would put up with it. If we go down we would probably keep going down. Come on Leicester 0-5 will do. Totally ****ed off with it. My misdus is right it aint worth getting upset over.

    I’ve told the 3 Fox fans I’ll be drinking with before and after the game that they should regard anything less than scoring 7 against us as a failure. They think I’m being overly negative, but they haven’t actually seen this version of the Rs play yet. I keep on telling them that we are mind numbingly awful, an historical low point.

    I also told them several weeks ago that Ainsworth wouldn’t be our manager by the time we played them. It’s beyond credibility that he is…..

    I'd wager the reason why GA hasn't been sacked is down to his severerance pay,to give him a 3 year deal was stupid beyond belief.
    Who put this package in place should be sacked along with GA.
    The Club is rotten to the core with and needs drastic root and branch surgery.
    The players seem totally disinterested,demoralised and would be off in a shot if possible,the malaise and lack of forward thinking,lack of vision and progress filters down from the top,this **** show is on them.
    It would be good to hear anything from the owners..The silence is deafening from our two bob owners.

    In fact it is not the worse team in last 45 years...and that makes it worse.

    There are players in there that should hold a mid table position with ease...if not higher

    Chair, Field , Begovic, Colback, Dykes and Smyth...I like Cook too. Cannon maybe.

    But...but we are not.
    How does that happen.
    Wrong plan, tactics, mental and/ or physical preparation


    It has got to be the manager...only explanation.
    I like Ainsworth, always will.

    He is not doing this on purpose, and I am sure feeling this worse than we are.
    He cannot say..."I am useless and I can't seem to reverse it". He has to stay positive.
    It is up to his "managers"... to put him and us out of our misery.

    I said to anyone that would listen that we needed root and branch changes in the seasonal break. It didn't happen and maybe now it's too late. I am a huge fan of GA as a player, but as a manager, he just can't cut it at this level. To see a hero turn into a villain is awful but I am afraid that's what is happening. We MUST makes changes soon.
