sadly inevitable, along with all the other plums. I cannot abide that show now…. Even as background noise. Would rather have the sound of music on
The lad who's running that show is shocking compared to Jeff Stelling, he makes more mistakes than Man Utds defence. As for the pundits....oh dear me.
For anyone who's bored this is from a very good writer and QPR supporter, Clive Whittingham ... "The reason for that is the style of play his Wycombe team used: ruthlessly, relentlessly long ball; aggression and physicality over style and finesse; dark arts, constantly getting the play stopped with head injuries, shameless time wasting. Wycombe tried every trick in the book." ... who's actually an Ainsworth fan, to some degree, but absolutely rips him to shreds, as gently as possible, on every aspect from his almost total lack of football knowledge to his 'greasy Goth' so called style. https://www.fansnetwork.co.uk/football/queensparkrangers/news/61176/how-ainsworth’s-dream-job-turned-into-his-and-our-worst-nightmare-–-column Which brings me to one of the reasons I can't abide the man. I spent 11 years at Rock City mixing not only with Goths, Punks, Rockers, etc, but with the bands. I loved it because I was only there for the music and lifestyle, some of the styles were fabulous, some people were truly unique from the performers to the roadies and the punters. I never dreamt of being a bouncer in a 2000 capacity night club frequented by Hell's Angels, gangs, drug pushers, junkies and people who should never have been walking the streets, the music was why I was there. During this time I was going to music festivals on a huge Kawasaki cruiser, bike meetings and endless Sunderland matches. I'd dress the part, in a style of my own, depending on where I was going. At Rock City I'd always shave, take care with my hair and have my 'Security' shirt pressed with the sleeves rolled up precisely ... even if it took me several attempts. But I had a day job for a Vauxhall dealership where I was always smart with a collar and tie. If I went to a funeral it'd be a black suit and overcoat, etc etc etc. The point being that there's a level of respect, for other people, that gains respect and gives you self respect. Mowbray is criticised just for eating a biscuit during his pressers, by Sunderland supporters, while Gareth Ainsworth is applauded as 'a character' for dressing like a homeless throwback. He may be a character but, imo, doesn't have character ... he's a walking cartoon character tbh. My point, in this ramblling sack of shyte, is that you owe your friends, supporters and employers the respect of the organisation you're representing. Ainsworth wouldn't go on stage, with his pub band, dressed in a QPR tracksuit and shirt so why does he turn up looking like Iggy Pop's grandad at Wembley or Loftus Road. The image of him at the play-off final in his stage gear biting his nails, on the touchline, was pitiful. I have to admire the way the QPR fans tried to defend his shambolic appearance and managing, despite endless red & yellow cards, chaotic tactics and ninety minutes of clapping and shouting like an under-11's kids team manager. It's time to grow up you absolute bellend, tidy yersel up and get down the Job Centre
That was a long read Smug, think the author was pleased to get it off his chest. Shambles doesn't even come close, and fans moan about how things are done at our club ffs. Ainsworth should never get another job in football management.
Bringing a chaotic and hysterical manager into a shambolic club was like bringing Boris Johnson into Number 10. He may have the 'style and charisma' to fool people for a while but is simply incapable of doing such a complicated job. Both Ainsworth and Johnson wanted the position and the money but lacked the honesty and dedication to actually do the job. Apart from that, as you say, the club is a total mess from top to bottom. They could quite easily go down and take a decade to recover ... ... they're so much like Reading I expect the supporters are looking on Amazon for the best deal on cheap tennis balls, Spooky that they both play in hoops whereas Ince and Ainsworth talk out of theirs
Couldn't agree more. And this crack about always had nice things to say about us etc, couldn't care less. His team's went on like ****ers. At QPR they seemed to have a player sent off every other week ffs.
At the 3-1, down there, he walked over grinning and applauded the Sunderland end ... ... as fake as Jordan's tits and, if I was a QPR fan, I'd have wanted him sacked on the spot.
“I believe we can achieve this season, and when I say achieve I mean achieve more than people think we can achieve, and that would be a hell of an achievement”. - Ainsworth
5 red cards under a manager who sends his teams out to kick anything above grass height is no great surprise really.
