Match Day Thread QPR vs Preston

[Turkish" Premier" Hoops]

He just can't help himself.

In all honesty he did say he was going to and I suppose it’s so he can have a look at some in a competitive game rather than just on the training pitch.

Too many changes again, Ollie!

That's what I don't get. He seems to have picked most of the players you wanted to start. If he had picked them all that would have involved even more tinkering. Which you said you didn't want. Must be a difficult line to follow to keep you happy given your two instructions - play all the kids and don't tinker.

Come on U Rrrrrrssss

 

[daverangers]

Different......get to see Ingram play (can assume we may be seeing Smithies heading in the summer?) And plenty of youth in the team and on the bench

According to commentary Smithies' partner is due to give birth so he may need to leave.

Fair enough! Why name him on the bench?

What do you mean 'fair enough', he is missing a chance to play for the finest football team in the world just to witness his child's birth.

Schooled by Trevor Francis were you Dave?...

1 up!!!! Matt Smith!

 

[QPR Oslo]

Smith 1-0 from an excellent Manning cross.

 

[daverangers]

Cross from Manning from a free-kick cleared by their defender but straight back to Manning who crossed it first time, on the volley, to the back post where Matt Smith ran in and knocked it in. Really good from Manning.

 

[Sooperhoop]

Smith in double figures for the season, keep it going...

I know outrageous behaviour, sack the wife, sack the gynaecologist, sack him and his wife, sack the child if born during the ninety minutes, in fact sack everybody we just cannot tolerate this sort of lax attitude at our club

 

[QPR Oslo]

Baptiste has done very well again. Ingram too so far. PnE have been marginally best.

Yeah, a stronger, more ruthless manager would've demanded a C-Section earlier in the week

 

[QPR Oslo]

Ingram then makes a mistake - gets a yellow as a result.

 

[UTRs]

This is good, whenever I go out shopping when we play i come back and we seem to always score!

I'm just popping out to another shop

 

[daverangers]

1-1 Nice move but scrappy finish

 

[QPR Oslo]

1-1 it was coming.

Why are you having a pop at me?
Have I done something to upset you? I don't remember doing so.
