Match Day Thread QPR vs Derby

Would have taken a point before the game, definitely when 1 down.

 

That sounded like a good game

 

Happy with that. Coming back from a goal down and Steve picking the same line up is good.

Derby won't be far from the play offs imo.

 

A very good performance and point. Wells is still consistently one of our best players even if he hasn't scored yet.

 

Yes, was happy with the draw in the end.

 

When Wells gets his first they will start going in. He is not a Washington.

 

Only got to see the last 30 minutes when I got everyone else here to stop using the wifi, including me on here. Looked like it could have gone either way so got to be half way happy with a point, but we need to be winning at home. Good goal from Cameron and a good display from him from what I saw.

 

If we could keep this formation, gain confidence and get a few wins we could move nicely to the lower middle very easily in this league.

 

Washington’s team is top of the league (though have to say, he doesn’t seem to be starting or coming on as a sub - which has probably helped them)!

 

Good game indeed.

We kept our shape despite the forced subs and we had a good go in the second half. That's also pleasing since SM may just have stopped the debacle that our second halves can be.

Brilliant save from Lumley that looked like a certain goal for them.

Derby neat and purposeful. Immensely encouraging to get a draw, albeit with home advantage, against a team that well organised.

I'm beginning to think we're not relegation fodder but I think we dropped a place today?

From where I sit it looked like that last corner nearly won it for us buy cleared with a header.

All told, a reasonable day at the office. Well done The Rsss.

 

Forget the positions and look at the points. This league is a lottery. 3 wins on the bounce and anyone is in good shape. Even after an incredibly inconsistent start to the season we are only 4 points off the play offs.

 

Hello mate.
Who went to left back when Bidwell went off?

 

SM moved Rangel to LB, Cousins to RB and Pav to RM. worked well and showed positive intent (would have made us more negative if Baptiste came on). When Cousins went off (who I thought was excellent) he put Pav to RB and Eze at RM. SM stayed positive until the end.

 

Yeah really happy with this week. After the crap week before we have bounced back.
A win at the Fakes and a draw against a decent Derby team is alright.

 

The second half was really enjoyable end to end entertaining football.

I have no idea on the first half.

 

As already answered by Upminster.
Very happy with that performance.

 

A good game and a fair result. It was the weather for a battling performance (I used to love playing in the rain) and that's what we got. Cameron was very good, as were Freeman and Lynch (who is having a very good season in my opinion). Rangel also did well when switched to left back. Leistner seemed to duck under a header to set up their goal and Carson was at fault for ours - he either had to catch the ball or put it out for a corner, but palmed it back into play. A positive performance, though. Encouraging.

 

Decent all round
Cameron is a real upgrade on Scowen whose always put in a decent shift
Apart from the goal the defence was excellent
Luongo ran til he dropped
Pav best game in ages
Wells goals will come!
Eze needs a break at the start or during a game
If we didn't know he was good you wouldn't tell from his performance
Living on a few good moves or potential currently
A class manager would sub him a bit to get more out of him when on the pitch

Very enjoyable game . 2 decent teams. 1 dodgy ref

 

I like Wells a lot, but imagine if Conor Washington had done what Wells did in the second half when their CB misjudged a cross and it dropped to Wells with only the keeper to beat. He's a very good player, but he needs a goal or two quite soon.

 

Very pleased from the reports here.
Pretty sure l picked a 1-1 scoreline.
Happy Days .................. in fact, its Happy Bathurst Day here in Oz.
The great race will be starting soon this morning.
