On the plus side Bidwell seems good but I thought that Yeni bloke was generally pants. Not hugely impressed by Cousins today either. Poor team performance overall. Oh and Smithies deserved a mention too, a few more like that and we'll all be calling for Ingram back.
 
Goalkeepers make mistakes. Smithies had a perfectly adequate game including one very good save apart from the obvious error for the goal. Can't remember him making many in his QPR career thus far.

I thought he had a poor game, most particularly, his Green-esq slow delivery and poor long kicks today. I agree that he has overall been very good but I think Ingram has too.

Just got back. What a pile of pooh that was!!! Poulter spent more time going to ground than was necessary. He must be the only footballer with a cauliflower arse.
He in particular stood out in what was a really poor show. Was that really the team that beat Leeds? Very disappointed.

Only one who has said anything is me and i never wanted JFH from the start. I have not mentioned anything about wanting him 'out', just said he is the wrong man to take us forward.

OK! I thought that meant you wanted him out. If you think he's the wrong man to take us forward, what else would you have him to do, take us downwards, make him another coach, or maybe he could still do a job coming off the bench?
 
No point in calling for the managers head at this stage in proceedings but... with 9 of the 11 who started against Leeds also starting this game the huge difference between the performances must go down to him. By sticking with one up front and a long ball game JFH made no allowances for the tricky conditions and had no answer at all to Preston's continual pressure on the ball. The other slice of blame must go to Captain Anonymous who not only was personally poor at the back but as usual showed not one jot of inspiration or cajouling.

You seem incredibly quick to jump on his back with every poor performance.

You seem incredibly quick to say the opposite to everything i say. Said before the season started he was not the right man for the job. But why listen to me when you can watch it yourself.

I am not saying sack him as it's far too early. I am just sticking by my guns that i don't think he is the right man to take us forward. Don't have a go at me, get down to Shepherd Bush and moan at him for losing to Preston

Only when I disagree. I watched today and it was crap but the season has still started better than I expected. As a group of supporters, I think we come across as a bit spoiled and arrogant at times.

That was ****ing dreadful.
Only Polter and Chery came out with marginal credit.

Agree and I might make an honourable mention of Washington who got a decent shot off - about the only time we tested the keeper all match

What happened to Luongo, missing most of the match...

Unfortunately Washington also missed by far our best chance. Back in the game 1-2 with 30 minutes to play could've given us some belief to push on

Luongo looked poor, though I'm struggling to think of any standout contributions today. In fact I thought Henry was OK but he was sacrificed for Washington

Yes, it was a great ball in by Chery, not an easy chance for Washington but Polter might have done better. Still, we played better when Washington and EK came on, I thought.
