    I don't know about the rest of the supporters of the R's but I found this statement by Steve in only two games into the season really quite depressing we are favourites to go down and already lacking passion.

    Agree Dens. Inexplicable and rather worrying. If there is a repeat against Sunderland depression will set in.

    I don 't know how anyone can say that we, or anyone else for that matter, are relegation fodder, so early in the season.
    We have supposedly bought very well and it will just take some time to 'click' ...............

    Haven't we heard that somewhere before...need time to gel? I have higher hopes for this season, can't afford to wait 17 games for a win

    Holly crap i can't believe that any one can accuse this lad of having no passion so early on. The whole team had a bad game. I am pretty sure i saw him have a run at goal in the second half. At this point we were either three or four nil down. I am pretty sure if this lad didn't give a **** he would not have made it pass the half way line.
    The thing that has pissed me off about our loss is our fans. ****ing disgraceful comment

    The lad spoke well and with honesty. He was bewildered.

    Harry and Hoddle will sort this out. I don't know about Wednesday but we will see a better display on Saturday.

    It was Steve Caulker who said the QPR had lacked passion in the Spurs game.

    Im sorry the way we started the game was just like two years ago!!............ We have experienced players so this bollocks about being overawed from HR is his problem and his alone. The team needs to be motivated and not give good players time on the ball it was pathetic and embarrassing and to be fair I was shocked. How can we have no passion and get Traore out of the team asap.....he looked like he hadnt a clue...

    Bit early for all this isn't it? Wouldn't you lack a bit of passion if you were getting drubbed?

    Also, us football fans are so quick to jump down the throats of players. A society where everything has to be instantaneous. Would you feel happy being slated after 2 days on the job?!

    Come on lads. .....We have a a team to 'support'.

    My ex used to say I lacked passion. I never did work out how she could say that after just two minutes on the job...

    I'm now on 1st name terms with the cloakroom attendant.

    I think our players are getting intimidated, and I agree it's Harry's problem to sort out. Their confidence is fragile, as shown after the Hull goal when they went to pieces for 20 minutes before rallying. They need to get a bit of controlled aggression into their play, their tackling etc even if they pick up the odd yellow card. I want to see belief and a really determined attitude on Saturday. Important match

    Idea for instilling passion - pre match warm up includes full on Argentine Tango dancing.

    He still hasn't added us to his client list on his website either.
