    I'm not sure JFH rates him tbh.

    So why cough up that amount of dough to bring him in?

    The whole point of buying him was that JFH knew him, had worked with him and rated him!

    I will give my verdict when I get back but not happy. JFH said he wanted a response after Brighton and we never got one. Some players don't even want to be at QPR yet Jimmy is playing them.

    That was an awful game.
    We have some serious work to do on that squad.
    Polter was truly awful!
    Few positives to be drawn from that game

    Really disappointing to hear that, sounds like they are already off on their holidays. At least with Clint on the pitch we might have demonstrated some backbone. Glad Ingram got another opportunity to play in goal. We need to learn how to score goals against relatively weak opposition.

    Look on the bright side.

    I had a 30/1 accumulator come in.

    Not happy with that performance. was promised better by JFH and it looks worse than when he came here.
    Phillips waste of space.
    Chump needs to go
    Polter...not good enough but tries
    plenty of other players need to improve.

    You could go through that team today and feel cheated out of the price of your seat.
    Few came out with any credit... Ingram; Cole; Chery; Perch (first half).
    Polter, Gladwin and Phillips were bloody awful.
    Everyone else was truly less than average.

    Gladwin is horse manure,and Luongo isn't much better.They look like poor buy's and I don't understand why he bought Washington if he's not gonna play him ! It's alright buying young prospects from the lower league's,but they've got to possess a modicum of talent.

    Here's my match report:

    Petrasso looked lively when he came on.
    Onouha was terrible today the amount of times he let them get goal side and instead of playing to whistle stopped and just looked at linesman, I used to think he would come good but just can't see it anymore.

    Lots to be discontented about today. I took to watching another white jacketed to55er act like a d1ck for the day as it was more entertaining at times.

    What is it about a wearing a white harrington jacket in the lower school end?

    Do they elect a match day d1ck and ceremonially drape said jacket on today's lucky winner then fill with strong lager! <laugh>

    Ali Faurlin looked a busted flush. To the point that he was all in by 70 minutes and looked genuinely enraged for the remainder of the match that he wasn't subbed off.

    It would have been interesting to see Samba Diakite make a cameo appearance.

    I think we're on Sky at Burnley on Bank Holiday Monday, God knows how embarrassing that's going to be but it will show just how far we have to go to be even challenging for the play-offs next season...

    Sku i saw him, what a dick.
    Did you see the way their fans celebrated when they scored? It was like they had just won the World Cup. They even let off a flare <laugh>
    All around me were in fits of laughter when the did that "your s@@t aggghh" at goal kicks. I have not heard that since about 1989! <laugh>
    It was their game of the season to try and beat the mighty QPR and a trip to London.
    they really have sad fans.

    Ahh the good old days!

    I did think it was funny after our claim for handball against Ferdinand on floor ball goes up to Ingram and as soon as he caught it they shouted handball!

    I note another gritty performance by Neil Warnock's Rotherham eking out a 0-0 draw at Wolves, now unbeaten in 11 matches with 6 wins/5 draws, only 7 goals conceded in those matches for a very respectable relegation save.
    He has to be doing something right with the average squad of players that he had to work with. Kudos to him.

    Rotherham United manager Neil Warnock:

    "It will take a while to realise what an achievement that is.

    "The players have been fantastic and the chairman has been unbelievable and it's wonderful for me to give them something to smile about because they have worked ever so hard to get Rotherham in the Championship.

    "I am speaking to the chairman in the next couple of weeks. I said once we're safe we'll have a chat, I will be in the Championship next year, I am speaking to him so we will just have to see how it develops.

    "It's great to come here and get it put to bed. If you'd have told me that at the start I'd have snapped your hands off. Now I want to finish as high as I can."

    Sounds like these comments could also applied to us:-

    Fulham manager Slavisa Jokanovic:

    Fulham 1 Notts Forest 3


    "We don't show quality with the ball or without the ball. We make chances but generally we were very, very soft as a team.

    "This is a habit for us, it is not strange giving a penalty, it is a bad habit.

    "We give them so much presence, we tried in the second half to play in a different way but during the game we scored and made chances but right now we are far off how I want my team playing."

    http://www.bbc.com/sport/football/36060678

    Meanwhile hot off the wire from HQ where we were unable to beat Humpty Dumpty's fake hoops:-

    Note: "Brian McDermott's side have lost 12 of their last 16 away games" (couldn't we have obliged them with another one?)

    QPR manager Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink:

    "I think we did enough in the first half to come in ahead and it was frustrating that they scored so soon after we scored.

    "It had the feeling of an end-of-season game and it was a little bit up and down. We couldn't get a foothold for a long spell - they had it and then we had it.

    "But in the end, I still feel we had enough chances to have made it 2-1."

    "With two more games this season, if you're not already starting to plan for next year then you will have a big problem. You need to plan in advance.

    "It is clear the direction we need. We have to have younger players - more assets in the club.

    "We have to look at more players who are 23, 24 or 25. I'm not saying we shouldn't sign a 30-year-old, but in the past few years too many players have come here to retire."
