Abject surrender...means perhaps we could have played better...if we put our mind to it
Today we tried anything and everything and it was awful..

Before anyone asks . I was at Forest and Millwall away.
I was at Newcastle 6 nil at home
I saw most of the premiership matches.

I know awful when I see awful

And I am on Gin and tonic and they depress me too.

Nothing anyone is going to say will help

It was a lovely clear day though.
 
Yes..... because in this match...they all tried. No one hid.
In the premiership we played many match with 8.5 players on the pitch.
Against Newcastle, Newcastle were real class that night..Shelves was outstanding

There was no excuse today every one did everything they were asked to.
But
1 they weren't good enough
2 the "plan" ( I use that word loosely) was not good enough
3 plan b was worse than plan
4 Forest were good but not that good
5 this has completely destroyed all the team gelling and hopes for the future that was building.

So down...

That's rather worrying. I couldn't make today's game.

He is absolutely gutted. I wonder if he's going to walk?
Sad old days whichever way it's looked at.
I wish he would walk. Easy to blame the players but it’s the mananger making the same mistakes week in week out . Never wanted him back and wish he would **** off .

Also place has lost its atmosphere. Due to the football being such a poor quality.

I also wish he would do the right thing and walk. JFH wasn't he sacked after a 1-1 draw with Forest? Due to us having aspirations to make the play offs??? Can't see there being many Holloway supporters now.

I think it's only fair to separate Holloway the passionate ex QPR player and man of integrity that I do support from Holloway the QPR manager who may well have had his day.

He's laid the blame solely at the feet of the players there. Not wise imo. Easy way to get the players on the wrong side. I wanted to hear a genuine apology, 'we'll work harder and differently next week.' Not 'it was the players fault.' Not good enough on or off the pitch today. Waste of an afternoon for me watching on QPR+, I feel for those who travelled to go and watch it.

He's blamed the fans, now the players. Who's next, the ball boys? That's the 9th time he's said that ''that's as bad as I've seen since I've been here.''
 
Looks like hes a dead man walking.. Tried motivating the squad and come up short.ollys a good guy with a big heart, but can't get a tune out of our players,he shouldn't blame them in a press interview either..do that behind closed doors. big error.I'd wager he won't be with us much longer.
 
Bloody hell, been out all day and come home to this result. Wonder what might have been if Smith's first half header went in. Oh well Villa and Derby up next and with our cushion is being slowly eaten away, should we be worried yet?
 
That is as bad as it gets . If anyone cannot see that our manager is clueless after witnessing that today they don’t know Football . Our defending is so deep . We get out numbered in midfield and resort to long ball passes .

He will continue with the same wrong formation and continue to conceded space all over the pitch . Don’t blame the players blame that clueless twat in the dugout . Shocking beyond belief .
Spot on. Our decent midfield now looks totally impotent because they are swamped so easily.
 
I know many want Ollie gone now but I suspect Tone will look at our 2018 so far and say won 4 lost 5 isn't sackable form. Not saying I agree but I don't see him being given the boot.
 
Worse than the six nil drubbing at home v Newcastle last season? <yikes>
Yes. Newcastle were unstoppable that day but this was a well average Forest performance. They were initially looking to defend and hit us on the break but realised they could pretty much score at will. Onouha was dire.

Just been watching Goal Rush on C5 and how is it that even L1 and L2 teams seem to have more desire and creativity than us?

And why continually place crosses / corners straight into the hands of the tallest man on the pitch (Forest keeper for those that sensibly stayed away from today's debacle)?

Our midfield was wholly ineffective for much of the match and our defending was pure Keystone Cops at times

The respective shots statistics really don't tell the true story - we barely troubled Pantillimon in reality

If we escape the drop it'll be because of the failings of other teams not the success of our own sadly
 
Luongo was miles off the pace.
He looked ill
Smithies reminded me of rob green they didn't have to do much to score
It was an odd day
Newcastle was worse as was most of arrys reign
