    Match Preview;
    Well, this is shaping up to be a pretty disappointing Christmas football wise. Our Boxing Day defeat to Millwall was our third loss in a row, coming after a draw, so our last win was on December 9th, 2-0 at home to Hull. Reading through the matchday thread from yesterday (Millwall game), many shared my frustration, having been at our game against Southampton; get the ball forward quicker, give Dykes some support and stop playing the ball back to the keeper at every opportunity! These are problems Cifuentes must be able to see, and needs to sort out asap. Willock, Paal and Dykes are our top scorers with 3 a piece.

    They particularly need sorting given our next opposition are high flying Ipswich Town. They've drawn 2, won 2 and lost 1 of their last five. They drew 1-1 with league leaders Leicester yesterday, having scored* a 93rd minute equaliser. *it was actually an own goal. They sit second in the table, 6 points behind Leicester and 5 points ahead of Southampton. Their top scorers are Chaplin and Broad head with 8 each.

    I'll be with my father-in-law on Friday evening and he's a tractor boy twice a year, when we play them, so really hoping it isn't a thrashing at least.

    Team news and manager comments to go up asap, enjoy if you are making it, and as always...

    ...COME ON YOU SUPER HOOPSA!!!

    Nice one Dave

    Not looking forward to this one at all but knowing us we'll probably nick a win when it's least expected

    Or maybe I should stop putting Baileys in my coffee

    Cheers Dave.

    Ipswich are exceeding even their wildest dreams.

    Time for their bubble to burst and we’ve got a whole squad of pricks to make that happen.

    COME ON YOU Rsss!!!!!

    If it wasn’t us I’d say it’s a decent time to play them with Southampton closing the gap and a bit of pressure on but after Millwall I expect we’ll fold early.

    Also, Marcus Bent.

    There will either be carnage or a reputable 1 nil win to them or even an incredible, and very unlikely, draw.

    Either way, COYRsss!

    The yoof on the Twitter are saying that Sinclair and Dunne have deleted the QPR pics from their Instagram accounts which the yoof say means they’re off.

    Possible, I suppose. Cifuentes doesn't seem to rate Armstrong (understandably) and he seems to be getting more and more frustrated by this.

    Deleted their accounts now, suggests they might have been copping some stick. Footballers having open social media accounts is never a good idea in my book.

    Begovic tweeted he was doing a 50% off sale at his glove business an hour after conceding a Sunday league goal at Millwall. Probably a scheduled tweet but still thick as ****.

    Thinking of getting down there fairly early and taking in the delights of Ipswich. All I know it for is inbreeding and prostitute murders so any recommendations appreciated. Apparently there’s a nice marina.
