What I'm struggling to understand is the style Harry has us playing. We lack incisiveness and seem to lose momentum when going forward. The number of times our players do a slow 360 degree turn to lose someone and then pass it sideways or back cos the opposition has re-grouped.

Agent 007. The name's Bond. Kevin Bond. Licence not to thrill.
 
On the radio commentary they've just said TF is there, I'd have thought he'd have been busy in Singapore.
Can anyone see him from their seats?

No. The commentary said after half time that TF et al hadn't returned to their seats the directors box yet.

The numpty on the radio obviously doesn't concern himself with anything other than football. Quite sad really.
 
People saying that Harry has thrown this to make a point to Fernandez. Surely the point is, that Harry has had a few transfer windows to sort out a good team, and he hasn't...the only point, is that it is time for a new man at the helm, and a new direction.
**** me, Harry Redknapp what's the excuse going to be today?

“i only got to spend 30 odd million on that team it's tough”

"I'm a master of man-management but it's tough. My players are tired. We've only played 7 less games then Sheffield united"

"3-5-2 worked well in the world cup but it's tough when ur an illiterate thick old codger who doesn't handle coaching"

"Lumping the ball to bobby worked really well against Mangala and Loveren but I didn't realise that league one centre backs who deal with that every week and know to double up kills it. So... its tough"

Please please please let this be the day he admits that it's his fault. He's a clueless mug and the sooner he leaves the club the better and the next manager will do it for a lot less than 3 million a year!!

Hehe nice
 
Miami..i can only appologise fir the replies you get from our site. Its out of frustration i guess,.

I , personally lovgr the banter and the fact that you ae a decent poster.. You will get stick here..accepted..but ..only as much as we accept on your board.

You are a welcome poster here (IMHO) and il back your right to post on our board..wind up or not !!

Love your input mate :)
Cheers pal. It's all tongue in cheek. Being a LEICESTER fan I know all about being frustrated. Sometimes we have to just have a laugh. Cheers pal

When they were at Tottenham I don't remember them playing like that. I know it can be said the quality of player is different, but I don't think it matters on this point. It seems we can't do the basics, pass to a player on the same team, communicate. The number of times players over hit passes that the receiving player struggles to control and has it nicked of them. Looking before passing so it isn't given away cheaply. Coming to meet the ball than waiting for it, once again giving a chance to have it intercepted. I'm sure I could go on but I think I've made my point and have no desire to make peoples eyes bleed. For anyone who was at the game today, you will have had enough of that already.
 
And you bite as always. Jeez relax. Happy new year

Can you understand the level of intelligence that some posters depict you with, (not just QPR's - but your own fans etc) when you come on other teams boards in order to receive "bites"? Just answer the question. Happy new year :laugh:
 
What's the atmosphere like R74, and any idea of the attendance?
If was crap mate. I sat in MU and it verged on poisonous silence waiting for things to go wrong. Hardly helps get the team going.

Bringing bobby on just made us lump it up to him which played into their hands. Utter rubbish and should have let him rest. We had the players to do it.
 
Good day for Sheffield - Wednesday 1-0 up at Man City at HT. Other PL teams all tied against lesser opposition.

I sat in MU too....none of the regular s....full of tourist fans.. constantly getting up to get food drink etc...
Two goals to almighty mistakes....perhaps we have got them out of our system now but please can Rio Traore and Toilet never play for my team again..Arry is right....he has a squad in which he cannot play 5 players in competitive matches...3 above plus SWP and Adel.....But whose fault is that.
We were inept at the back and woeful going forward....I cannot express how down I am after this match....I know it does matter wrt our Prem survival.....but the level of lack of spirit of skill, of belief will take a lot of getting over..
 
Today wasn't totally wasted

With the money I avoided wasting by not going to LR I got a large bag of marshmallows from The Range and some new cycling gloves from Decathlon :emoticon-0140-rofl:

I will, however, be seriously p*ssed off if we are as shambolic next Saturday!!

Wonder what our lot has to say about the match? Even though he was not involved today, I can just see Barton piping up with something.

Player reaction
QPR 0-3 Sheffield United

Terry Kennedy: Best moment of my career by far. Fans were unreal. Stuck together and kept fighting for 90mins for each other. Another cup run?

Stefan Scougall: Another fantastic day to be involved with Sheffield Utd!! What a performance from the lads & incredible support once again [HASHTAG]#DareToDream[/HASHTAG]

Jay McEveley: What a result that was! Thanks for all the messages!! Fans were amazing as always let's kick right on now!! [HASHTAG]#sufc[/HASHTAG]

My last day on Twitter for a while. Just wanted to thank all of my followers for their support and interaction over the course of the year.

Happy new year matey
 
please can Rio.... and Toilet never play for my team again

COL possibly has the best football brain on this Site but also the worst eye for a player. Those two above are his favourites.

I'm the opposite so in that regard, if I were managing a team and had to pick a number two from all not606ers, I'd pick COL because combined I think our respective weaknesses would be covered by the other. COL could do the tactics whereas I'd pick the players.

I reckon we'd make a decent team :smile:

Neither are my favourites.

I always rated Rio and believed he could still offer us something. I was wrong.
I still rate Hoilett and believe he is a good player. I agree that his end product is often disappointing and he relies totally on playing with confidence. I don't think he gets much encouragement from Harry and therefore his confidence suffers.
I don't want to get into another debate on Hoilett. I like him but find him just as frustrating as many others. I don't want Rio to play again.
 
Just forced myself to look at the 'highlights' on MOTD. No defence and McCarthy looked cack as well. Jesus.
