    And in all honesty, it pi**es from a great height onto the fans who've paid money to watch the team.

    Surely there’s no better way to tell your team you don’t believe they can win than setting them up as GA did on Tues night.

    This against a team that had numerous injuries; just struggled at home to Plymouth and were potentially there for the taking if you got them scared from the off.
    Not straightforward but possible. We had no chance.

    For such a positive guy he sure does employ negative tactics.

    Some talk on Twitter he was booked for scuffing the penalty spot, didn't see that myself, it is weird he wasn't the only one protesting the most blatant pen known to man.
    Also he clearly says the lino told him he could go on, Dunne is a dunderhead but the ref is also a twat.

    I'd prefer we gave it a ****ing go and loose 5 0 than sit back and loose 4 0

    This was the third ever away game I’ve attended. Stamford Bridge when we were hockeyed 6-1 I think. The other was Old Trafford when we were beaten 1-0 I think in the League Cup. Not since that Old Trafford game have I seen such a lack of ambition from a QPR team. I thought it was inexcusable against United but against West Brom FFS, shameful.

    Wasn't it Ainsworth who was temporarily in charge that night at Old Trafford?

    Edit ... And wasn't it a Tevez penalty that they won by?

    I think that’s right. My memory may be playing tricks on me but thought we did quite well and they didn’t have loads of chances. The round before at Villa was superb.

    Yeah, my son and I were there as corporate guests of American Express. My son had his photo taken afterwards with the Premiership and Champions League trophies. We met Alex Stepney later and I told him I remembered him playing for Millwall when we put six past him! He took it well.

    I think you both may have slightly misinterpreted what I was saying :cheesy:

    I was trying to make the point that we weren't an absolute shower of **** this time. We actually seemed, at least defensively, more competent, until Dunne's moment of idiocy.

    There was a plan but then there was a plan when the troops were sent over the top.

    Didn’t remember that about Ainsworth. Wow, what a coincidence. We showed zero ambition that night. The plan was to try and hold out for 0-0 and win on penalties.

    Meant to add that rarely have I seen such an ineffectual performance as Dozzell’s the last night. He is so lightweight and floated around the place contributing nothing.
