    against Sunderland. We have tried everything else. This will scare Sunderland not to mention us but why not give it a go for first 45?

    what about this; Sir Les and JFH. Bear in mind they were both good strikers in their day, maybe their expertise and experience can show our strikers a thing or to.

    That's what makes it even more frustrating that we play one up front that clearly isn't working and the two men in charge were fantastic strikers who should be able to see what we can see.

    just supposing the youngsters put in a shift and turn over Sunderland. The next league match would be interesting for JFH

    He'll play,score,and get man of the match,and then won't be picked again for the rest of the season. An absolute joke,this situation stinks to high heaven,and I for one am sick to the back teeth with the club's handling of this entire business !

    Should be these two up top for the Birmingham game. He has to change it, but if Polter is fit I can see us playing 4231 still

    After what happened on Saturday when Sylla came on and we went 2 upfront, surely JFH has GOT to play 442 or at least 4411!

    JFH was pretty clear on the QPR podcast the other night that Sandro wants out - given that, is there any point playing him ahead of a player who wants to be at the club and needs game time. Player either wants to be with us or not and why would we piss of our players at the expense of a want away?

    If he's that great how come no-one came in for him in the transfer window?

    We can't build for the future with the Sandros of this world.

    Until January he could help us get sore needed league points and win cup games as he did at Rochdale. With the exception of Chery, who needs a rest now and then, the midfield players being used in the League aren't doing so good.

    Player aren't going to get any better sitting on the bench... and I'm not sure we should base our squad selection one one game against lower league opponents.

    He wants out - he's just as likely to get injured so we can't get rid than play out of his skin - the evidence of the past few seasons suggests he needs to be wrapped in cotton wool until he can be shown the door in January.

    Too expensive, too injury prone, too 'big' for us (in his own mind that is)

    Quite a good mention on Clive's preview for tonight on Sandro http://www.fansnetwork.co.uk/football/queensparkrangers/news/43897 :

    I’m not sure you can feel sorry for somebody who gets paid very handsomely to tell eleven men how to kick a ball around the field, particularly when they’re not kicking it very well, but I can certainly sympathise with Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink’s situation to a certain extent, which he graciously explained at length on this week’s Open All R’s Podcast.

    Take Sandro for instance. QPR supporters have, supposedly, grown tired of ageing, injury prone mercenaries coming here on colossal money at the end of their careers with no intention of doing anything other than tossing it off for a couple of years and topping their whopping pension pots up. QPR supporters supposedly want younger, hungrier players, who don’t earn £60,000 a week, who actually want to be at the club, who want to play football every week and do their best for Queens Park Rangers. “I don’t mind if we lose as long as we try” – that old chestnut.

    And yet, after a couple of poor results and some very lacklustre performances, we want the players who do want to be here out and Sandro back in. Sandro is about the biggest mercenary we’ve had - only here in the first place for the money, hardly ever fit enough to play, not very impressive when he has played, repeatedly stating his desire to leave the club, with absolutely no interest in being at QPR and only now training and pushing to play because several attempts to leave in August fell through. Come January, he’ll be desperate to be off again.

    And we’re giving Hasselbaink grief for not picking him?

    There''s a country mile though between the one extreme of buying old pensioners and paying them as though they were in their prime, and the other of using only players who cost max 3 million and are on wages under some limit, regardless of who is still available. I hope we aren't being that stupid now.

    ...and if Sandro does put a shift in tonight - remember, he's doing it to get a move away from us - because he sure as hell didn't do it when it mattered to us...
