Match thread: Watford - Queens Park Rangers

That's on the money ...posters were worried over this before these games ... 1 game at home which we fluffed. Sincerely I had down for 5 points max i wanted 12 of course ... we got four and everyone on here including me was wrong. I am not counting that 2nd forest goal as no football was being played at the time so we have let in two goals in December ... yes we haven't picked up the points we wanted but if anyone this we should be flapping around like Mavis Riley they are blind to the fact we have a solid side ... goals will come and with that points and confidence

Half way through and the fact is we have let in 13 goals that is promotion form Foxes let in 12 just in Dec
I said Derby were coming and here they are built as we were by Stephen6 goals let in Dec

You build a team on a solid foundation

we are missing goals and in fact very poor finishing at times ... it has to improve i believe it will and then we should be the complete side in this division

Burnley themselves very solid but the goals have dried for them but they keep nicking the points 3 goals in Dec ... very very good same as Forest

Form teams ... what happens when we hit form? of course many on here that won't happen ...imo it will and then i believe we will blow most away

we are very well placed and its foolish to not think otherwise. The table is 50% done and we are right in there

I guarantee you that the sides above us will get beaten and get beaten heavily

faith brothers and sisters ....faith

Next year then we can dream about real football ... this is task football nothing more nothing less

 

One thing I will add to that Oddball is that people shouldn't be creaming themselves about Derby. Yes they're on an unbelievable run with 8 wins and a draw from 9 but their form will taper off soon. I remember the year we were promoted out of Lge 1 and Bristol City come from deep and was winning every week while we was fumbling around wiv 0-0 draws and all that caper. Geezers were saying that they were unstoppable and would win the league at a canter leaving ourselves and Plymouff to scrap it out for the second spot. Well, turned out we held firm and Brizzle shot their load prematurely.

Its like the hare and the tortoise innit?

 

Tis ............. and the fat lady hasn't even entered to room let alone sung.

 

Our new manager seriously overestimated you lot - which is why he set up not to lose. Our 2 most dangerous players were not even on the bench - maybe Sannino had written off the chances of winning and wanted them rested for New Years Day. Your passing play was very tidy, and you have 2 good wingers, but I don't think QPR would have scored if we were playing now. What would worry me most if I was a QPR fan is that there did not seem to be any passion. Assou-Ekoto is obviously a fantastic player but I have rarely before seen a player exuding 'don't give a sh**" so plainly. And what is wrong with Krancjar? When he was on the big screen in close up he looked like a heroin addict.

 

It must be a bit worrying (much like for us) that you only have one fully fit in form striker as such despite the big squad and money available?

You looked dangerous out wide but the goal threat was limited from both sides.

0-0 was a very fitting result.

 

Fixed your post Marky Mark

 

You should give us a bit of fear factor as we play solid football and control most of the games we have played in the first half of the season. I am very pleased with a draw as I believe Watford will beat or hold the teams above us. It's not just Watford ... Seagulls and Leeds on their day are better sides than the Foxes and Burnley. Derby are the ones who offer the biggest threat to the title IMO

 

I have to say that the constant disparagement of Burnley and Leicester by so many on here is wearing a bit thin. 'Burnley apparently have far too small a squad to sustain a challenge'. Possibly so but they have something we don't. A desire to hang on in there and win when they can as comfortably as they can. In short, attitude. Leicester do (have the squad) but for some reason everybody on here believes they will not be in the mix come the end of the season. And we will. Just how big a head start into the second half of the season do we have to give them? Well let's see some evidence on the pitch and our goal difference then for the confidence some of you clearly have. Our super squad and manager need to learn one pretty simple lesson. Play to win and you probably will. We showed that in 30 minutes at Blackpool since when we most certainly have gone a couple of steps back.

And then to cap it all, Harold tells the cameras that we gave Watford a footballing lesson in the first half. Which one was that? I don't recall seeing our players in their box or making a single accurate shot. That's where it counts.

 

Only saw the highlights this morning. No argument that a draw seemed the right result. Also clear that with a fit Austin or even a fitter Krancjar, the points might well have been in the bag. I see that Phillips came close too. Oh well.

 

Yes please.

 

I watched the game last night and althoug we "probably" had more possesion, we really didnt do much with it.
We gave the ball away far to often and no-one seems to be giving any credit to Watford. They werent a bad side
I do honestly believe that if we had a single decent fit stiker we "could" have taken the 3 points, but qwe dont so thats that.
How the f we have got this far into the season without a decent strike force is something that redknapp has to answer for.

Im still not convinced we'll win this league or that our team is a "premiership" team.

I have to say that even if we do go up (by luck) we'll be in for a torrid time in the Prem with these players. Major surgery to follow.
Our problem is (as i have stated before), so much of our development relies on us being in the Premiership. Harry's hands are tied in the sense that this is his mandate. No Ifs or maybe's will be accepted. ( from a trusted source)

Id love to say we are goingto win this league, but based on the previous 10 games I think its time for a reality check for some.
Sure we are still up there in contention, so must back HR but the future doesnt look pretty from where i sit.

Just my opinion for what its worth....(F-all)
