Todd Kane first goal city 2-1 , should be a nice bet

Are some of the people saying we’ll miss Godden the same ones saying he wouldn’t get into another top half squad? Just wondering

 

[stupot07]

Be very harsh on Ben to be dropped. I love having Moore here, but to drop him after the three games he's had would send the wrong message to the squad. They're pretty tight knit and it's the shirt to lose. With Rose injured Fadz will come in and I suspect Jordan (who should have been off on Monday) will now stay and likely start tomorrow before being replaced on the hour and then leave next week. I also think Gyok will come in but still only one up top, also starting with Allen as the extra man in the middle to keep it tighter for the first half.

Team: Wilson, Kane, Shipley, Fadz, Hyam, JCS, Sheaf, Hamer, Allen, O'Hare, Gyokeres

Can you imagine dropping a striker after scoring 2 in 2 starts...?

Or Sheaf after he’s been playing well. Or Rose for Hyam. Or Kane for Dabo. Let’s not pretend Robins doesn’t drop players after decent games all the time.

I like to do it naked on a Wednesday

 

[cc84cov]

Based on what?

Based on he’s always got a mistake in him let’s come back to this thread tho if he keeps the shirt

 

[cc84cov]

the bed wetters were saying that last week when they started, and as usual, they were talking utter shite.

That was Peterborough this is a good QPR side Shipley cannot start,we need fadz back also as well as Moore

 

[junglej13]

Ben Sheaf to get off the mark tomorrow. Be interesting to see who would be penalty taker if we get one.

 

[SIR ERNIE]

QPR impressed me at Loftus Rd, we weren’t a match for them once they started going through the gears. I predict a 0-2 loss.

We dominated the first half at Loftus Road and it was only after two unnecessary substitutions on 60 mins that we lost our shape and they took control.

Yeah cause you're the sort of prick who wants him to make a mistake simply so you can say told you so. I wonder sometimes if people actually support City. Tell me how many mistakes he's made since he's been here and you can have last season too.

The reason why that was strange is also why I'm kind of sympathetic to keeping Wilson in. Also depends if Moore is at 100% yet, too.

Exactly. I'm a huge Moore fan, I said some weeks back I think he's berm a star performer and one of the reasons we're doing so well, but nobody should be an auto choice and if someone is doing well then they keep it imo. With an outfield player you can move someone around but a keeper specialised and for someone who did well when called on last season and has been patient and a good squad member, to perform as well as he has I think dropping him sends the wrong message to anyone pushing for a place. We need competition to keep everyone hungry and on their toes not thinking they can walk back in. Even Dabo who's rightly a fans favourite now has to wait and then earn his place back.

I agree, although I think it’s a bit different with a keeper. At this level not many teams have 2 keepers they think are going for the number 1 spot. You have a number 1 and number 2… they both know that. But, Wilson hasn’t done anything to be dropped, I just think most fans feel safer with Moore in.
However, it’s the constant hysteria of people… “we play him and we’ve lost by HT”, etc etc, that really gets on my nerves. You call them out on it after they did the same last week and the response is “that was Peterborough”… then why were you having a hissy fit in the first place if it was meant to be so easy?!?!

 

[clint van damme]

He wouldn't be my first choice, neither would Wilson, but you'd think people would thi k twice about having a little hissy fit over selection, especially when it's already it them on the arse.

And just a reminder,QPR lost away at Peterborough

 

[Blind-Faith]

Game day is here!! Can’t chuffing wait for 3pm. 2-1 city today. PUSBS ⚽️⚽️⚽️

No we didn’t dominate at all, we competed and held our own for a bit. Completely different to dominating.

 

[eastwoodsdustman]

Im really nervous about this one. My other half has covid and is isolating. Im clear at the minute and will be gutted if i have to miss it.
2-0 city Vik and God

Somehow ive stayed covid free. Game on

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

will be asleep in my seat at ko time - puppy woke me up at about 5am and I'm in a state of semi-consciousness!

How old? I was up at 1:30, 3:30 and 5 this morning with ours!

We did much better than just holding our own for a bit.

Ask any QPR fan and they'd tell you we were well on top in the first half and should have been two up.

 

[cc84cov]

And the difference in quality showed in the second half, when they took hold of the game and eased past us. They’ll be without Ilias Chair whom a lot of their play comes through.

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Just over 5 months - he's a Chonzer (half Bichon, half mini-schnauzer). Had to move him into our bedroom at night, as his barking was unfair on neighbours, and meant we were losing too much sleep. He's better now, but wants to say hello to us when he wakes up (which is nice, but disruptive!). Fast asleep at my feet as I type!

 

[Great_Expectations]

FYI all - Important:

According to the website, Covid passes are still required for the game tomorrow.

What’s the situation with these? Worried I’ve left it too late. Are they actually checked?

If you’re jabbed it takes a few minutes through the NHS app.

 

[shmmeee]

If you get jabbed at the Ricoh before the game are you allowed in?

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

QPR fans seem to think they’re just going to match our setup and go for better quality man to man. Would quite like to see McF return to the side and fingers crossed Gyo breaks his duck or is at least back to his old self.

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

Think we'll probably lose. They're a good team and sounds like we won't be at full strength.

Neither will they

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Should be a good atmosphere and a good game. Gyo to find his mojo. Only really bothered about Adomah and Willock, and if we can look after them, no reason we can't get a win if we show up. QPR will be rightly confident, and a good team,, but they are not a Fulham, or even a Bournemouth.

Same child? Time to find them a new school
