Woke up in time for the stream and although listened to more than I saw, was happy with the result even if the performance wasn’t the best. As has been said on many occasions, we lack composure in the last 3rd, but 3 goals from 14 attempts is a better return than we’ve had for a while. Disappointing lapse of concentration for their goal, they hadn’t been any danger from them until that moment.

It was nice to play the game out without overly worrying about a comeback, Barnet were very poor.

1200 away support could be heard loud and clear on the stream; hats off to all of you and the ne of the more enjoyable drives home I trust.

URssss

A win away – Report

Sunday, 14th Jan 2018 22:22 by Clive Whittingham

QPR secured a second away win of the season, and scored three goals in a game for the first time this campaign, with a 3-1 success at struggling Burton on Saturday.

Queens Park Rangers’ best winter since 2007/08 garnered another three points, and a second away win in four road trips, with an oddly professional display at Burton Albion on Saturday. For all the panic and fretting, Rangers are almost as close to the play-offs (ten points) as they are to the relegation zone (nine).

That was reflected in a travelling crowd in excess of 1,000, who took more than fair advantage of the warm hospitality on offer in a genuinely friendly town where every second building is a pub, a brewery, or a combination of both and the streets are interwoven with steel pipes carrying alcohol and a distinctive smell hangs in the air.

Burton look like a team destined for relegation, and if that proves to be the case then the town, the people, the club and the welcome we receive there will be a sad loss from our Championship calendar (assuming we don’t go with them). It was an awayday like few others - a brilliant place, happy to receive us, pubs with signs outside actively coaxing away fans in. Such a welcome difference from a fortnight ago at Millwall, where we were criminalised and caged simply for turning up to support our team.
