    Garbage.

    We have no idea away from home, we are to central, have no width and as soon as the first goal went in you knew that was it. We had a great result against derby but our home and away performances are so different, Birmingham are an average side and we look shocking.

    The midfield is to tight, fernnandes huffs and puffs, king as often happens goes missing and Abe is not consistent enough, and for some reason Danns looks like a different player to his Palace days. There is no creativity and the forward line isn't getting any service.

    Top 2 is laughable, top 6 is doable perhaps because we will get a fair few home points but for me Sven will be judged on his away form not home form. 3 defeats already, plenty of games that we could have more points if we had been a bit more ambition away from home. This league is average at best and our team should be doing better. Still think if away form does not improve he'll be gone before Christmas.

    Sven, you need width, creativity and a bit more passion away from home, you'll not be getting s new contract with displays like this!

    Completely agree. As my thread also suggests, Sven isn't learning.

    He's always been too cautious. We've had an unbeaten run but have only got 3 points from 4 away games, why not go for it a bit more, even if we lost 2, drew one and won 1 (which would have been very possible with a positive attitude) we would have still picked up more points. The unbeaten run has essentially meant nothing now, we are in the bottom half and our performances still aren't consistent.

    Yes but you're clearly completely missing the point, or just choosing to ignore it.

    This defeat was coming because of how we've appraoched away games, we've sat back and been happy with a draw but then we make a mistake and concede and we are clueless going forward. We had the majority of possession but gave them the inititative and the momentum because we didn't do antyhing with it.

    The only difference to this game and the ones at Cardiff, Boro and Barnsley is that in this one we were punished for our negativity.

    Results have been average overall but performances away have been terrible, or at best very unispiring.

    Wow, racist as well it seems.



    What point? We are unbeaten away from home and winning home games.

    QPR had 5 away 0-0 draws last season, there is nothing wrong with going to set out negative and we were unlucky that we were down to ten men and a goal down because of an inept referee.

    Not anymore we're not.

    Like I said, I'd rather us have lost 2, drawn 1 and won 1 in the last 4 away games than draw 3 and then lose 1.

    And were QPR 13th at this stage? No they were top.

    I watched QPR quite a few times last season, they were clinical and had pace in the final 3rd, they created chances and took them. I don't see a resemblance between them and us at all at the moment.

    And don't be ridiculous blaming the referee, he got the penalty call right and we didn't deserve anything from the game today with that performance.

    I knew as soon as I posted this you would be the first to respond, you need to take your Rose tinted glasses off! If you were happy with that then fair enough but I and many others aren't. My point is he isn't learning, and I didn't say I wanted him out, more the fact he will be judged by those that matter on his away form. QPR only lost 6 times last season, we have 3 already.

    Have some ambition!

    I presume you can't read, or perhaps need glasses, maybe this is why you don't see what is happening in our away games. Where did I say I want Sven out, I would'nt miss him if he left mind you.

    But what you are saying is that if we have a go more then it doesn't matter if we lose. I'm not saying it is good we have lost but I am saying that until the referee changed the game we were totally comfortable and everyone was saying that Leicester looked the liklier of the teams to go on and win. I think Johnson would have made the difference if he had been able to play but we had to bring on a defender.

    QPR were a team who played on the counter and played it very well. They had a striker in Jamie Mackie who was scoring in every game at this point as well as Adel Taarabt who is arguably the biggest talent ever to grace this league. I don't see why we can't become as good as them if we keep defending as we have because, like we saw last week, we can be clinical in front of goal aslong as the supply is there.

    Why ask 'are you a black man' if you know I support Leicester and you and the rest of your scummy Hull fans are known to be racist against the community I live in for completely no reason.

    I know it must be **** being a Hull fan when you have to watch Hoof ball Hobbs and headless chicken Waghorn week in week out but keep out the racism because it makes you look like a bigger **** than you actually are.

    I'm not happy with losing nor the performance. But to call for our managers head after a loss when we have just beat our rivals 4-0 is completely insane.

    Please show where I have been racist. I may start calling you Forrest Gump, as you are excruciatingly dumb.

    Of course it matters if we lose. I'm saying we should have the better players, right? So if we are positive, like we were against Derby, Brighton, Southampton first half, Forest first half - we should win, and those matches I mention support that argument. I'm also saying that whilst you seem to think going unbeaten away is great, we would have accumulated more points in the last 4 away games if we had just won 1 by being positive and drawn another, even if our positive approach led to us losing 2 of them. I'd think this to be unlikely anyway as our defence is generally very solid, it's only individual mistakes that is leading to us conceding. As a unit we are fine, and being more positive like we have been at home will not, IMO, lead to us shipping loads of goals. That wasn't the case against Derby or Brighton, as they were overrun by our controlling of the game and forcing them back.

    Adel Taarabt was massive for QPR last season and we don't have any players like him, so that's why we can't be as good as them for one reason. They also brought in Routledge, a quick winger who chipped in with goals. This is another kind of player we don't have nor will have as Sven doesn't want one. As for them playing on the counter, we don't do that very well as we don't throw enough players forward, nor do we have great individual, pacey players like Taarabt. As for them drawing 0-0, they also won plenty of away games, we;ve only won one, and lost today.

    Yes we played well against Derby and deserved to win 3 or 4 nil, but we didn't play anywhere near that level today and that's my point, if we did, we'd be beating pretty much everyone. But the negativity doesn't suit us and we haven't scored in the last 3 away games because of it.

    Learn or leave. Yes, basically, away from home. I don't see much talk of a new contact etc, owners have doubts. I am not saying he goes now, but learn away from home or leave
