    Fair play he got some real got tackles in and got forward supporting Routs. Just might have convoked Monk that he can take over from Rangel.

    80% happy with that , clean sheet and 2 good goals which should have been a few more but thier keeper did well, routs not great apart from the goal and jonjo makes me nervous when he comes on now plus should of scored ! montero got caught out couple of times being too clever instead of passing it, nice not to throw a lead away which maybe because it didnt come to early ?

    Green kept them in the frame most of the game, took a great goal from Ki to break the deadlock, and about time Routledge got back on the score sheet. Bony should have had three tonight, needs to be more clinical with his finish, Ki was my man of the match with Siggy a very close second................<ok>

    exellent performance - kept plugging away against a stubborn QPR side and in the end we got what we deserved - onwards and upwards!

    Difficult to rate our back four as QPR was ****e and didn't possess any threat at all. Hope he (Jazz) gets a chance against West Ham though as he seemed as good as any of our right backs..

    Are you on the wind up Yankee? It was a mess. You should have won by 6 or 7.

    Well played. You guys are impressive.

    It's been a hard season for us, there is always something stopping us winning and tonight I thought it was Green. Your keeper had a blinder.

    We have not been out of the top 8 all season so its going better than anyone expected. I'm not worried about bony going im more worried if we will be able to hang on to monk...<laugh> well 14 games played and we are only 18pts away from a possible 40pts safety mark...cant be bad..<ok>

    You kept your shape pretty well and stayed disciplined without the ball. Harry's teams are always well organized ... and I noticed that you have Joe Jordon on the bench now .... nobody is going to fail to put in a shift with him around to bark back.

    You contained Montero well and Routs didn't do much at all.

    If we'd been more clinical in finishing, or your CBs hadn't played their socks off with timely covering and interceptions, and Green had not pulled off the saves that he did, then it could have been ugly. But it wasn't. If you had snatched a goal in the first half when you had a chance or two then it would have been a totally different game - for us and you.

    It was a game that required us to keep to our plan, keep focused and try to be creative. We did that and in the end we had the breaks we needed and were rewarded. Harry's too good at what he does for you to be negative. If you go down it's not for a lack of good football people behind the squad - Harry, Jordan, Hoddle ... if there's a way to survive they'll find.

    Harry,Jordan and hoddle are old school and cant play the modern game we play today and thats why they get turned over most of the time. for QPR to improve then they need a good young manager who is up to date on how football is played today....they wont go far with those three calling the shots in today's modern game ...

    Yankee, I'm afraid you're talking through your Arris mate. Hero has called it right.

    No offence Yankee but despite being a good side, Swansea aren't Real Madrid. So why on earth would Harry go and stick 10 behind the ball hoping his keeper will play out of his skin and scrape a nil-nil? It rarely if ever works.

    You talk about shape and discipline without the ball. Well we'd have to considering every time we got it we gave it back to you. What kind of dozy tactics are those? 7 away games and 7 defeats with 2 goals scored. It don't take a genius to figure out that his scared sh*tless tactics ain't working. Have a go and you might at least win the odd one. As it stands we've got no chance.

    I'm not for a second taking anything away from the Swans who were superb tonight. Could have beaten us 8. But our tactics give the opposition so much confidence its criminal.

    Hero, you're spot on regarding having all old men in charge. Hoddle, Bond, Jordan and Redknapp are out of touch. Your young Manager knows where its at.

    Fair play fellas. You're a great wee Club playing some fantastic stuff. Keep it up <ok>

    Totally agree on the assessments of Jazz tonight. Assured and composed on the ball. All the back four played well and Taylor probably had his best and easiest game this season.
    Don't know what it is but I seem to have a blind spot for sigs. I know I'm in the minority thoughthough. Fair play thoughthough he always makes himself available for the quick ball from the centre backs to his area but they play safe.
    Decent and deserved win in the end.
    Palace best away fans this season, QPR the worst.

    Quiet as a gang of mice. Noise and backing your team I mean. He'll of a contrast from the palace fans Saturday.
