    AN got it wrong today. Once he took Simms off their centre half’s just strolled forward at every opportunity and picked passes. We look great going forward and need to just carry on with our attacking play, we aren’t good enough to defend a lead. Totally deflated leaving that ground. Still a bit perspective is needed because it’s still a decent start to the season. Last thought is we have a really good player on our hands with Clarke & Patterson is growing into a very safe pair of hands. That ref was shocking

    We were very good today and while I think AN got it wrong with taking Simms off, I think the real issue is players running out of steam . Neil had cramp after 75 mins followed by Evans. and a few others were leggy at the end.we have a steep learning curve and the only way they catch up is through game time or we bring in more experienced players.

    Gutted . Deserved 3 points . A lot has been said already that I agree with including taking so long to make subs at the end. Neil had been struggling with cramp for 25 mins and embleton had been standing waiting to come on almost as long. Played some really good football but so disappointing not to see it out. Thought Neil waited to long to make the subs at the end. He hasn’t got anything wrong and he’s a good manager but thought the subs were far to late. Still need powerful midfielders and another big brute of a centre half especially if Ballard is out for some time. Keep the faith lads and lasses.

    Or maybe just give the players we have a bit more game time Alex needs a new watch, as well as players, imo.

    Still fuming. Game changed when Simms went off him and Stewart were destroying their centre half's. Dunno if Simms was hurt or in need of a rest or was taken off for tactical reasons. Don't understand why we went from 3 at the back to 4 at the back to back to 3 after they got their first. 3 5 2 was working if Simms needed off we could have just put Roberts up with Stewart. The shaoe changes seemed to cause unnecessary confusion and gave QPR less to worry about going defensively.

    As I said earlier still ****ing foaming

    I thought Evans was a lot better today.

    I know none of you agree but I will say it again, we look so much better with 2 up front and we can't keep that up and have a No. 10 and expect to keep things tight.

    As much as I like Pritchard, we are lop sided and get exposed with 2 up top. I honestly believe we would be a stronger team with 2 wide players to compliment the wingbacks but leaving the 2 up top to press and harass them

    He was good today. Probably the best game I've seen him have even seemed to ooze composure which isn't a phrase I thought I'd say 6 months ago.

    Still ****ing fuming tho
