    They've clearly targetted out left side. Brentford aside, I don't remember a match where we've played with a clear plan to win the game. Variations of the same negative shit every week. The more games that go by like this, that Brentford game becomes more and more headscratching.

    Ostigaard and McCallum, 2 loanees, were the only outfield players scoring higher than a 3 after that half.

    Rose looks like a posh 15 year old kid up playing his first game in Men's Sunday league. He'll be having a glass of milk at half time.

    We'll not make any changes at HT, play a bit better in the 2nd half and people will be conning themselves about it and ignoring that QPR had won this game ater 90 seconds and coasted the 2nd half doing the minimum to maintain their lead.

    Said it on a match thread a few week ago, James has got lovely technical ability but I can't shake the feeling he's more interested in getting a string of 90 minutes under his belt than rolling up his shirt sleeves and helping to keep us up.

    Pask for Rose, DaCosta for a 2nd striker asap please.

    You thought he'd keep Dabo out of the side so that's a bit hypocritical.

    QPR move the ball from the back to the forwards in 4 passes. We tap it between our centre backs for 6 passes and then go long to Godden. Dire. This formation is useless when the wingbacks are trapped in a 5.

    Is DaCosta operating the camera too?!

    Of course! Been sanding and oiling the garden furniture all day, must be high off the Teak Oil!

    Bit of a damned if you do and damned if you don't reaction on here today. Think most people would have wanted Wilson and Biamou out of the starting line up for today and they've got that wish. O'Hare on in the 2nd half gives us a strong sub and can also replace Godden with Walker when he tires...

    Kelly and Dabo

    Frustratingly, before he did his hamstring, that was his best performance for months too, looked back to his best.

    O'Hare stats this season

    He's saying O'Hare would have more assists if the rest of the team didn't miss sitters weekly :)

    O'Hare stats this season

    He's often our only real outlet and is forced to look for those fouls. The danger is it can become a bad habit that can detract from his natural game if it happens over too long a period. It should improve with better players around him that he can play football with rather than having to buy...

    When are we signing Chaplin anyway?

    Taxi cancelled for Robins

    15 pages is pretty good going in 48 hours. Any bets on how many pages it'll be by the next time we play? If you're not sure you've got the energy to get through it all, I'd highly recommend the Grendel Mint Cake.

    Taxi cancelled for Robins

    Since Robins has been back it is the away form against the bottom 6 teams that has been his achilles heel and is for me the manifestation of his away draw = a good point mentality. We've only scored 22 goals in 21 games away to the bottom 6, with just 6 wins from those matches. We have proven...

    Pask v Da Costa

    How is our foreign recruitment happening then? I'd be shocked if anyone directly employed by the club has seen him play live more than once before he signed.

    Pask v Da Costa

    I've been harsh on DaCosta and a little(!) over the top but what I'm really trying to say is that I think he lacks any kind of football intelligence. He's got height, athleticism and I can see why on paper his stats probably made good reading. But I think because of that lack of football...
