The first thing I would do is revert to 3 centre backs, even if that means playing Kakay or the lad Gubbins there. After all, Gubbins is a centre back. We can't wait on or rely on Balogun or Clarke salter. Neither, to me, actually feel like QPR players. Dickie just can't play in a back 4, it's blatantly obvious to see. Paal at lwb and if Laird isn't fit/bothered then put Drewe in at rwb. He might not be the best ability wise but he's certainly got the energy to get up and down the flank. Field and Johanson protecting that delicate defence, giving those wing backs that little bit of security. Richards in the no.10 role as he seems to have the technical ability. Lowe and Armstrong up top.
In desperation, bring the lump on to push people as that's all he seems to do, at walking pace.

Agree 100% with giving a back 5 a try. We have to try something different.

We are not going down. Maybe by default but we are not. We will fluke the odd result and the bottom 3 are not going on a winning a great anytime soon. We will beat a team that are on the beach for starters for e.g. PNE at home. We'll draw at Wigan and home to Brum at worst.
You heard it here first!
 
Did Dieng make anything other than routine saves yesterday? I haven’t even watched the lowlights yet.
Yes there were a couple of decent saves not worldies but better than routine. Sadly his distribution is a lot worse from hand than on the ground, although Martins inability to move may have made some kicks look at lot worse than they actually were.

That team isn’t good enough to knock it around and play good football. It’s not going to be pretty but we have to get it forward quickly to Armstrong and get him to cause chaos and win penalties and free kicks around the box for Chair to take. Neanderthal football but who cares if we can steal a couple of wins.
I’m no master tactician but I called for Armstrong and Richards to come on at half time and play for penalties and fouls yesterday. They came on later but that’s exactly what happened, both combining for the pen.
Richards has to start as he has a presence and energy. But successive managers have overlooked him so there’s clearly something else going on with him.
Buckle up for some epic s***house football for the rest of the season. It’s our only chance
 
Right, having sat through that, I don't want to hear Ainsworth come out with any crap about seeing improvements, and how pleased he is with the lads. That was just poor. We are only heading in one direction, and this lot need a rocket set off under their arses after that display, and most of the displays since October. They threw Critchley under the bus with their lackadaisical approach to their jobs, and they aren't changing under Ainsworth. Haka is all good fun, but it did sod all to get them fired up. I'd get them back on the bus tonight, pull into the training ground, and tell them they are back in first thing tomorrow morning, and every other morning until they put in enough effort to deserve a day off.

I'm bemused at the performance, frustrated that I dared to hope we might get back level after our goal, and I don't want to hear a passive interview from Ainsworth. I hope he gives them hell, and doesn't hide it from the media team and fans.

Guess not then;

RIGHT.. I have got the answer. This is all Kiwi, and his Xmas clocks fault.

We haven't won since Kiwi has put up the thread, and updates it regularly.

Kiwi ...take it down, I said it was bad luck when you first did it. You are to blame....I expect the Christmas elves are so upset it will take a while to get back into kilter

It was bizarre watching it live, shame because he did look lively just a very strange decision, and very obvious to fans in hindsight. Other players deserved more **** than he got though
I thought I saw that too but truly couldn't believe it. My lad was grabbing me saying look dad what the hell is he doing
