Camera turns to Tony, looking pretty grim, and Les who gets up - wonder what they are thinking - time to pull the plug? A home loss to Brentford hasn't occurred since the Great Train Robbery, Harold Wilson as PM.
No fight, no pride, no passion. The least we should expect is to compete. We deserve much more than this! Dire excuse for a professional football team.
Don't think there was a lack of effort, it's just that we're not very good....... They were a better side, always looked like scoring, playing in balls down the channels for the runners. Defensively they were very solid, Egan had a terrific game, kept Sylla and then Polter in his pocket.......They broke quickly and should have perhaps scored more. We huffed and puffed but no end product, not sure where next goal is coming from.........and next week we go to Nottingham where we've never won, how about a first win up there?
My first game of the season and What a pile of crap, there was nothing there that says we are anywhere near a decent championship team. No pace in the team at all what have they (Les and JFH) been doing in the recruitment area. We need pace on the ball there doesn't seem to be any teamwork at all. Was willing to give JFH time but it's obvious he isn't up to it. At times I thought we were the away team
And Smithies. And Ned. And Luongo. In fact apart from Robinson (with some excuse) and Sylla 1st half, don't think any one playet was so bad individually. But Brentford were excellent, and we couldn't handle them at all.
That's Tommy Smith on the post match interview team - well taken goals, especially the 2nd that reminded me of OBZ's at Wembley - instant shot into the top left corner, and Perch as our Richard Keogh.
Quick observations:- 1) Every one of our players looked good for a few minutes. 2) Wszolek looked the part consistently. 3) Other teams seem to have more players and time in the middle (and their players seem closer together so that they can retain possession). 4) We seem to lose the ball a lot when we have it wide on about the half way line for some reason that other teams don't. Even more odd considering point 3) 5) We looked very sharp and creative for a few minutes in the first half. We can play but can't seem to do it for an extended spell. 6) Do our players look any fitter with all the physical conditioning and double training sessions? Disappointing. That's all.
Yep, first win for Brentford at Loftus Road in 52 years ....... that pretty much says it all. Supposed we played one up front too?
A five hour drive after cock ups on the M40, M42, M5, a stop for the dog to piss (more for me to piss to be honest), and an hour to do less than 10 miles in the pitch black on sunken single track lanes, including multiple reversing to let oncoming lorries through. WTF are they driving around at 8 on a Friday night for? Massive tension in the neck and shoulders. But at least I wasn't at Loftus Road. And wisely decided not to listen to it on the radio. And now I have a glass of red in my hand and am gazing across the estuary at the twinkling lights of Salcombe. ****ing QPR. Thank God there are so many other things to enjoy.
The way i see it is that if TF does ask JFH to move on it would put SLF in an untenable position after backing jimmy to the hilt re:results,performances and undercover sting.
Agree. We were simply outplayed by a team that has better pace and been better assembled and playing well as a team. New low point in being a QPR supporter. 52 yr duck broken and where on earth do we go from here? New mandate for Jimmy is to avoid the drop, run your contract out and we start all over again come the summer.
A new low, just so sad to see Loftus Road so lifeless - we need a new management team to get some passion back. Boring performance with no clear game plan. I genuinely think a good manager could get something from this team.
