So, we are officially the worst away team to ever play in the Premier League. That is some accolade to acquire - especially with some of the dross teams to have played in the last 20 odd years. More excuses coming from Harry no doubt. We probably had our best possible team from the squad (minus Yun) in the starting XI, and have been made to look poor to probably the worst team on paper in the league. Can't wait for his explanation re: Taarabt. Apparently nowhere near fitness - then sticks him on as a starter in January at Turf Moor. ****ing Aida. I can't handle watching Harry's (or Hoddles) mug on the sideline. I know Fernandes is starstruck by Harry being a West Ham fan, but I think it is fair to say it's over. Dreadful football last year. Same again for most of this season. A couple of shining lights in Austin, Green and occasionally Dunne. Feel for those fans travelling far and wide to watch more tosh. We are going down if things don't change immediately. Fact. Ffs.
I'm a big Taarabt fan, but the decision to play him today, at a wind-swept Turf Moor, after saying for weeks that he isn't fit is yet more evidence of Redknapp's total lack of tactical nous. I think that any other manager in the Premier League would get more out of our players than Harry. He's finished.............and so are we!
The manager isnt exactly a shining light but at some point the players have to take some responsibility, we have a bunch that are so sloppy and error prone its painful to watch at times.
And to play him and then continuously hoof the ball upfield in those conditions. Beggars belief really.
The players always have some responsibility, but the buck stops with Redknapp as Manager. He's responsible for the composition of the squad, their training, the tactics, the game plan. He has no way of passing the buck on this, it's his squad and his team. What a shame that we've wasted so much money and we are still in the relegation spots.
I have to admit that it's gotten beyond boring now. I can't wait for the Harold chapter at our club to end. I'm really not sure who should replace him but I don't care if he gets the boot now. Having to put up with this until the end of the season is not going to keep us up. Time for a change!
on top of the Sheffield game........which people seem to have forgotten about very quickly (probably best!!).
Exactly. Just bored of him as a manager. Only so many cliches I can handle. No problems with playing in Championship - just want entertaining football.
I'm not convinced he's up for the fight is Harry. He comes across as almost resigned to the situation and totally unable to do anything about it.
I think it is important for us to stay in the EPL, for various reasons. But the football is shyte, I agree. I think we should try and stay in the league but I don't think Harry is the man.
Past his best I think and not motivated to really change the situation. I think he feels the players have let him down and he's bored and fed up of trying to sort it out. = new manager.
I am totally pissed off and think that HR has had his day, but we need to just hang in there with him, this season. Who is going to replace him, now?
This. I think most us supporters feel that Harold has let us down and we are bored and fed up of him failing to sort it out.
We've been here before with Redknapp, gives up in the New Year, sinks into some kind of black dog and can't shake himself out of it, transmits it to the team and they give up too. The home points dropped against Palace and Swansea (though we didn't deserve any more from the games) made this a crunch game, our first away against the 'weak' teams. No return and from now on home points very difficult to pick up too.
A characteristic of QPR under Harry is not fighting in games and trying to be the first to the ball. We've never been the kind of team trying to win everything under him. I'm bloody tired of it. I want to see some passion at QPR again.
Things are now looking very dire, 1 point from 2 matches playing against 10 men, thrashed at home in the FA cup & losing away to one of our main competitors really couldn't be much worse & any positives have gone.
