Match Day Thread QPR vs Bolton Wanderers

Dreadful day
Ffs just limp on to safety if we can

 

No mate. We were excellent.

 

They're not even f*cking average Col, if we go down this lot would struggle in League One especially without the experience of the loan players who have had a poor few months when they're not injured. I really don't know how we've gone from the Villa performance to dogshyte but we have...

 

It's ok.... Mac said he didn't expect that....

We are a long way from being average right now, sadly.

 

He could walk in on his wife at the centre of a bukkake party and he’d do **** all for ten minutes before bringing Smith on.

 

I miss the days of us being average.

 

Who would shoot over her head

 

Bidwell even on his stronger side.

Perhaps someone should inform him that we ain’t scoring too many either.

 

Teams are capable of scoring three goals. I’ve read about it.

 

Still 8 points off the drop, not that that's the best of positives. If we do manage to survive, the prospect of next season is the stuff of nightmares. Wells and Freeman are our only goal threats (Not that either is prolific) and neither will be with us next year. Think I need another drink.

 

442, 451. todays 433 - Whatever!
The point (as you are well aware of) is that you approach the game in the fashion that you want the game to develop. The 433 that we played was really a 451 that put no pressure on them whatsoever. Whenever BOS or Pav got further up the pitch there was only Hemed in the box because we were playing 451.
In other words we basically played 451. Most certainly not, what seems more attacking, a 433.

 

As we all know but somehow keep forgetting we have a group of very limited players. This is compounded by a ludicrously cautious manager whose tactics only work if our clueless defence gets lucky and we sneak a goal as the opposition get frustrated. The recipe for the most boring team in the division is completed by Massimo 'first name on the team sheet' Luongo who is the most negative midfielder I can recall seeing in many years and who single-handedly sucks the life out of games. All of this was on stark display yet again today with a lively performance by BOS the only positive aspect of another tedious and embarrassing afternoon at LR. Where do I sign up for my season ticket renewal?

 

I am getting heartily sick of this absolute dross. We follow up losing, at home, to the third worst team in the division by losing, at home, to the second worst team in the division.

Who on earth believes that Hemed (walk-walk-trot-jog-slow), is a better bet to start than Wells; and the equally ephemeral Lynch is worth a start ahead of Leistner? Answer: only one person, our coach (sic), who has had a 2 week break to get our defence organised and has totally failed. I've never called for a coach's head but I'm running out of patience here. Wells, for all his weaknesses, did more in his first 10 minutes on the pitch, including creating his own goal, than Hemed did in the previous 70. And if I never see Matt Smith play again, it will be too soon. Luongo? Flatters to deceive; fails to exert much influence on proceedings. Bright Samuel man of the match.... which probably means he'll start the next one on the bench.

We created a decent number of chances, especially in the first half, but we are incapable of converting them and we have a defence that concedes at the first sign of trouble. Bolton were a little lucky to be ahead at half time but had the better of the second half, despite missing two fantastic opportunities to embarrass us even more.

Who here trusts McClaren to shake up our squad in the Summer and get us ready to challenge for honours in our next campaign in whatever league we are in for 2019/20? Not me. I don't think I'll be watching League One football next season but that's largely because I won't buy a season ticket to watch League One football next season (been there, done that). I'm now often embarrassed to say I support Queens Park Rangers. Bristol City are a lot closer to home. That Man City lot look like they might win something. QPR? Nah, not me, mate. Once upon a time, I did.... briefly, when I was young and impressionable.

Another weekend ruined. I care. Do they? Not on today's evidence.

 

Woke at 4am in Aus to see the result. Not what I expected and not a great way to get back to sleep!

Just read this depressing thread and and now depressed too!

Surely too late to sack McClaren now? Huge decision for the board either way. I don't think It went it's over dramatic that the future of out club is hanging by a thread.

I'm sorry to say this one and all but now we have one week to brace ourselves for the annual ritual sacrifice at Carrow Road.

 

After feeble attempts from previous managers, I really expected McLaren to display some real management cred when he signed with us.
Forget about the fact that we have average players, a decent manager should be able to get them to rise above their norm and get results.
McLaren has proven otherwise.
Very disappointing indeed.
We don't have a rosy future.
We don't have any shinning lights.
We don't have any budget ...........and we don't seem to have any direction from the owners for us fans to hold on to but hey, we still need a friggin DoF!
What an absolute joke.

 

RTID, now you know how l feel every week.
Apart from that, hope you enjoy your stay 'down under'.

 

Lol. I certainly do! Definite ruined night sleep. Was on Rottnest which was brilliant. Where are you?
