    Well I was going to suggest a charity bet, didn't realise one of the QPR lads had already taken it. Fair.

    Talks between Tim Sherwood and QPR about becoming manager at Loftus Road have ended.

    Sherwood was the clear frontrunner after being contacted by the club following the resignation of Harry Redknapp, but negotiations with the ex-Spurs boss have come to a halt.

    Real Madrid assistant manager Paul Clement and Brentford's Mark Warburton have been linked with the position.

    Former Swansea manager Michael Laudrup is not being considered for the role

    The fact is that on the whole we do not get decisions going our way. For what reason I do not know..

    Oh, so much. So very, very much. We might be eight points from safety at the bottom of the Championship buut we're not that desperate.

    The ref was appalling. It works both way too, QPR had a nailed on penalty from a JoS hand ball, he brought his arms together and cupped the ball to control it on the six yard line in the 2nd half. Ref and lineman were nowhere. En Garde is just either making himself look thick, or hasn't watched any premier league football this season if he hasn't even noticed the poor standard of officiating this season. So let him mock us fella, it's him who looks the fool.

    Barton was the outstanding player on the pitch

    No way, it's all about Leroy Fer. Exceptional performance. Best player on the park by a miles. Shout out to Isla too, he won't have been expecting the free role he was given but didn't half punish us for it.

    You saw things different to me then because I thought Barton and Green were QPR's standout players.
    Fer is out for about 10 weeks now which is typical when your struggling.

    Greens heroics were the opposite end of the pitch for me so couldn't really appreciate his performance, his kicking is shocking though.

    I thought their whole midfield was superior to ours on the night and they were so much up for it compared to our sleep-walkers. It is simply not good enough starting on the back foot at home, we seem to do this so often, something is wrong somewhere and no, it's not the fans fault Gus, its yours, and the tactics you preach. Nice to here from HP, hows the championship these days.

    QPR owner, before the game,

    "Think I have got my dream manager. Not what anyone thinks. Take a while. Still a bit to go but I'm very happy. Press all wrong."


    Strange when most of the press & bookies were saying it would be Ramsey.

    He seems a bit weird tbh.

    Smug, that's an under statement if I've ever read one. The guy's a ****ing fruit loop. I don't think he's a prick or anything, he seems to have great intentions but it's like he's playing football manager but the owner version. He's essentially just a deluded fan.

    If he has a 'top' manager lined up to come in, then that top manager won't go anywhere near them until they're safe. They look doomed and that sort of risk for a manager could ruin all the hard work that the manager has put in previously.

    Odd thing to say on twitter, he's like a kid who can't keep his mouth shut and jumps the gun.

    I agree with you there - Barton ran the show - a lad had a go at me when he was shouting telling him he was **** and I said "Been better than any of our midfield"!! and Green was awesome shot stopping! On another day we'd have won that game quite comfortably!!

    See the bit where he says "take a while"? Paul Clement won't leave Real Madrid mid season, but apparently he thinks he has him for next season.

    I'm sure he tweets when he's pissed !<ale>

    Well yeah, of course I saw it, I posted it.

    How can it be Paul Clement ......... didn't you see the bit where he said 'the press have it all wrong', that's where you your info from.

    Trying to get in a drunk Malaysian's mind, the bit where he says the press are wrong, is referring to Sherwood being talked about like it was a done deal. And Clement is who he's after for next season.

    That's a very dangerous tactic imo ........ if ordinary supporters, like you, believe that then surely Ramsey and the players know it.

    How that will affect things, in a relegation battle, is anyone's guess though I can't see it helping Ramsey's authority.
