07 Mar 2013 AWAY WIN AGAINST SOUTHAMPTON EARNS QPR THE ACCOLADE The League Managers Association five-man Performance of the Week panel, comprising LMA Chairman Howard Wilkinson, Sir Alex Ferguson, Joe Royle, Dave Bassett and Barry Fry, were in agreement that this week, the F&C Investments Performance of the Week Award should go to QPR following their excellent 2-1 away win against Southampton in the Barclays Premier League on Saturday 2 March 2013. QPR manager Harry Redknapp will receive a specially engraved crystal football in a presentation to commemorate the award. QPR won their first F&C Investments Performance of the Week Award of the season with a vital win at St Mary's. Loic Remy gave the visitors an early lead only for Gaston Ramirez to reply for the Saints on the stroke of half-time. However, a late goal from Jay Bothroyd proved to be the winner as QPR earned their third win of the season. After the match, Redknapp highlighted the importance of the result; "It was a big result for us, this is a difficult place to come and Southampton are a good team. "I picked 11 players to work hard and when you work hard you get your rewards. "I don't see Southampton getting sucked into a relegation battle. They are a good side." ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Let's do it again on Saturday. Come on you Rs!
When it says that this is the first time this season that we have won Performance of the Week, I guess that means that our victory at Stamford Bridge didn't win then? If so, there must have been some damned good performances that week, that's all I can say!
redknapp, Bassett, joe Royle 7 Barry Fry all together...? thats the "Brown Paper Bag Gang" complete...Definately paid for that one !
I was thinking that. Either they didn't rate Chelsea as being up to much at the time (so beating them wasn't that much of an achievement), or they really don't rate you now. Man Utd and Liverpool both stroll to 4-0 wins, but you beating Southampton 2-1 is the best performance of the week? I didn't see the games (and usually for these things neither have the judges based on the one we won before), but I would have expected Tottenham beating Arsenal by the same scoreline to be seen as a better performance.
You did, here's all the previous winners this season. http://www.leaguemanagers.com/managers/pow-archive.html It was the Peterborough one for the win against us rather than the one we won that shows they don't watch the games. We absolutely battered them performance wise but just couldn't shoot.
