Of course I did Col and the football we played was full of passion and I always thought we had a chance in games. However, don't kid yourself that the football was good.

Correct. There's a lot of nostalgia about that season but the football we played was largely crap. We bludgeoned our way to promotion but it was fantastic because that's what you have to do in this division. The uglier the better and boy was that season ugly! (Taraabt's moments of genius aside)

He hasn't only done it once, he did it with Notts County, Sheff Utd, us and was on his way with Palace before they went into Administration.

But what he hasn't done is keep a team in the top division, ever. (Although we'll never know if he would have done with us).

I agree he's great in this division but, again, it would be a short term fix. We'd need to change manager and playing style if we got promoted if we didn't want to come straight back down again.

I'm not necessarily disagreeing with the premise that we need stability.

However, doing a Wigan could set us back years and years.
Also, if we don't use Austin, Fer, Chery and Sandro this year, they won't be around next season. We need to be getting the best out of this squad.

a good move by the club. Someone for CR to learn off. wondered what all the chanting of NW's name was about at the game yesterday....now I know!!!
 
I'm sure I have read somewhere that Sunderland want Sandro so maybe moving him would be a good move. The financial fair play saga drifts on so maybe TF is worried abut that.
CR has had to deal with (the infectious )Mackie being injured and bringing in freebies (well we did spend at Swindon) so maybe having smaller budget affected. Still wondering why we loaned out Caulker and he isn't playing, especially if the defence is somewhat suspect. Listening to radio at work, commentator was surprised that such an experienced back 4 can be so ineffective (I believe those were the words used). Also, whenever CR speaks on the radio he doesn't appear to have the passion of Colin, so maybe use him as the voice piece for the club and let CR focus on training ground. If only Derry and Clint Hill were 10 years younger..........(mind you I could say the exact same words about myself) I'm sure the team would be different.

When I finally write my autobiography, I might end up with a separate book on being a Rangers fan......The Trials and Tribulations of following the Superhoops!!

I agree with Col that Warnock knows the Championship. He's a wily old fox, and CR is looking like a rabbit in headlights.....

........or perhaps one of those hens.

I wonder if Ramsey would be prepared to admit and accept his management shortcomings and return to a coaching role, allowing Warnock to take over the reigns.

This "dream manager" seems to be getting the job done at Derby County, although he would no doubt like to tighten up their defence. Chris Martin even missed a penalty to make his hat-trick.

Derby 4-2 Wolves (80 mins)
This is the first time Derby have scored four since Paul Clement took charge in the summer.
After that Adam Le Fondre goal, he'll be hoping it is not the first time they conceded four.

Would be nice if we could also do this:-

Derby County manager Paul Clement names an unchanged side for today's game with Wolverhampton Wanderers. Read more at: https://tr.im/hWCTm
 
Wonder what chance when Villa inevitably part company with Sherwood and we with Ramsay if Tony and Les would try for dear old Tim again?

If Ramsey loses the next two home games and I can see Warnock back in the hot seat. Shaun Derry as his number 2 anyone?

Has a certain inevitability about it. Just as the inevitable sniping will start after the first game that they're rubbish, the football isn't good enough or sexy enough. It's written in the stars. It will then be time for the next big beast among yesterday's glory men to rescue us from mediocrity in the PL and bring in his own trusted overpriced overhyped mercenaries. Just remember that the vast majority of you were drooling over the turn around that Warnock not Hughes, not Redknapp engineered in our fortunes from near certain relegation candidates to the PL in 15 months. How swiftly you all forgot that. Akunna matata? Or circle of life as a QPR fan under Fernandes.

TF running club like a fool IMO
However CR is sounding shot in the BBC interview
Something is again going to happen because we just can't sit still
The fear of us doing poorly just can't be accepted by some fans
Infected
I said 14th but also because of the players we have we could be in the mix for a play off with the other 10 teams
Panic after 11 games by TF looks crazy to me
Why? Because if he did get NW and CR working and we get up this year
Where exactly are we again ?
Oh in the same place a club who will need to get 80k players in again or we will down again
NW is there just to get Adel back I hope
TF needs us to go up just for the money ... What a mess

The team we have now is much much better on paper than the team Warnock took up.
I agree Adel was magic for a decent part of the season.
How could Warnock being in charge be anything other than an improvement for the team.
If we got going then kept the 5 premiership quality players
we can hand it over to Mr McClaren in the summer.
That is not such a move away from steadying the ship. Half the team will have been here 3 or 4 seasons & we get Joey back!
The pot of gold is too great and we have too many good players now (with a decent manager) to let it slide any further
(Obviously I mean keep Polter, Green,Perch, Hoilett, Henry)

I find all those ridiculing Warnock from their high ground of superior knowledge hilariously strange. Our Championship winning season was one of my most enjoyable seasons watching Rangers.
Who cares if he's only done it once? Every coach who has achieved things were at a point in their career when they'd only won something once. It means nothing!

This all day long. Warnock would do more for the team in one game than Benny has all season. It really frustrates me watching QPR at the moment. For this so called great coach his tactics are questionable. I cannot believe that TF put him in charge.Wrong bloke wrong division, get rid
 
rangercol said:
All very commendable, but you've lost interest already and we're half way up the Championship. Just imagine what could happen if we end up in League 1.
You say that we must build;be patient etc and yet you've already admitted that you're not too bothered about QPR at the moment.
Perhaps if there was a change of coach, we may start playing the type of football that would bring you back?

It's all a fine line eh?

It's got nothing to do with league position Col. It's lack of soul.
