Match Day Thread QPR vs Bolton Wanderers

At the end of that report he ( Andy Hillman ) says ... 'Bolton allowed QPR to do practically as they pleased, and aside from launch it long to Smith, there was very little guile from QPR before the introduction of Smyth and Eze.'

I didn't see any evidence of that unless one of our defenders were clearing their lines under pressure. I even remarked to the fellow sitting in front of me that at least we were trying to play football and the hoof ball to Smith was mainly absent.

 

It was encouraging, you could see that they were not looking to play it long to Smith and tried to play it through the middle on the deck before trying to get it wide for the cross. There was one moment in the first half when Luonginho turned into Neymar and shimmied past three players with a dazzling bit of skill. This game was a complete contrast to when we played Barnsley.
I think some of the angst from talking to mates in the pub afterwards was that we didn't score sooner so they couldn't relax. I personally knew a goal was coming even without the sending off. Other than Bolton's couple of chances we controlled the whole game.
