Cheers .

Well taken goal .

One here too now .

 

That's the sort of finish which should give him the confidence to fulfil his potential.
He's certainly on an upward trajectory.

 

Could have been a penalty if he did not score?

 

I guess he has been flying back to Watford today, and tomorrow the team will depart for the Friday night game down at Plymouth. I hope he has enough clean underwear with him!

 

Bench warming I'd say!

 

Be a few in that position.

Ken, Georgi and Sierralta.

 

I doubt the first two will be badly affected - only a short flight away.

 

Players travelling back from international duty all seem fine. Sierralta flying straight back and getting cab direct to Plymouth later today - “not known that before, Friday has made it bit more tricky” said Tom

 

Aw shucks - QPR will be without Chair next week...

QPR dealt mammoth double blow ahead of Cardiff City and Watford

 

Lucky to be playing at all.

Was given a jail sentence last year in Belgium but that seems to have gone by the wayside

 

Another youngster fleeing the nest sadly for the arms of the big boys

If we kept our good youngsters we wouldn't need to take chances on someone else's

 

When I lived in London cabs didn't go south of the river at that time of day.

 

Money talks and probably the chance of being in the limelight even though actually very few make it past youth level.

 

Let's be fair, this youngster didn't start with us. He clearly moves around for the best option career wise.

 

Just remember Harry Forester - signed by us from Northampton for £13k when he was 10 - 'pinched' by Aston Villa for £250k when he was 16, then released three or four years later. He was tipped to be the 'next big thing' with Spurs and ManUre sniffing around.

Apart from a brief spell with Glasgow Rangers his career nosedived - after 2 years in Iran and 3 in USA third tier he retired at 31. Happens all too often really.

 

True - slightly different I guess and probably has the confidence he'll make it this time despite Arsenal rejecting him before which is why he came to us.

Not quite like Sancho I suppose.
Sadly the days of having someone like Ashley Young seems unlikely now if they are any good at youth level.

We won't even see them in the first team for a bit.

 

Women's team out of the FA Cup after losing 1-0 at Oxford. Blew the chance to equalise by missing a penalty.

 

Guess who has just scored again for Brondby...

 

Not a typical Rajovic goal! He looks fitter than when he was at Watford (perhaps because he is playing more regularly and is usually also completing full games).
