Goal aside that was a terrible performance, probably worse than Saturday.

Our midfield is just completely non-existent, we’re unable to play it out from the back because there is no-one there to receive it meaning we either lose it by hoofing it long or lose it by getting pressed.

There is just serious systemic issues with this team.

End of the half and start best bits. Need to have some belief and go more into the match but we are leading and that is good enough atm.

Wright could have played it round to BTA then. Instead he went backwards and it ends up with our CB with his foot on the ball with them 11 men behind the ball.

They are either being coached to be overly conservative or they have no confidence.

Awful game again but we are winning but we can't keep playing this slow football we scored with pace and haven't used it again.

Don’t disagree think we’d do better sinking Sheaf into a DM and bring Jack and Eccles into a cm role

Think an equaliser is inevitable if we keep this up.

Even though we're winning I feel like booing. The regression all across the team is incredibly worrying and confusing.

We just aren't able to play football right now, no control, when we try and play, we are rushed and struggle with the press and end up hoof balling it long, then it just comes straight back at us, worrying as these are crap.

Apart from a bit of uncontested keep ball in stoppage time, that was poor.
If we don't concede from ffing about with it at the back we'll have done well.
Rudoni an absolute passenger.

So what you’re saying is we should carry on being negative and the players will play better? Fine by me.

QPR the better team for long periods.

no pattern of structure to our play.

playing out from back but with no idea how to progress the ball

3 centre half’s marking one immobile striker, overran in midfield.

What I find most frustrating is we started well.
So why did we then resort back to form?

The reality is we don't really have any quality left in the squad.
Wright is probably the pick and he is largely a mess who very occasional sparks.
We've got to play much better as a coherent disciplined team because individuals aren't going to do it.

It's just confidence, the midfield, or Eccles and Sheaf have taken the ball from deep a few times

His handling is far superior though there's been a couple of occasions where players have had a go at him for not giving them a call.

Well it’s not great but I’ll take it. We need to retain the ball for a decent period second half
Passing the ball backwards to Dovin who boots it long and it comes straight back. Same from the throw ins-can’t find our own players and just giving them possession back.

Really feels like in the past our success has been down to a box-to-box 8 and a creative 10, and at the moment we have neither. There's a real disconnect between our defence and attack.

They all run an ultramarathon on the treadmill then Robins does a tombola to decide the next starting lineup.

QPR apart from a couple of moments are long shots from range and crosses punted in from range. You'd hope we could deal with that.

Good question - I have yet to see what all the pre season fuss was about. Perhaps the Huddersfield fans weren’t being bitter because he was leaving?

I swear half an hour on the fans forum of their current team would save us millions in transfer fees.

We scored by picking up the ball on the edge of our own box and progressing quickly.

After scoring we decided against that and we should just maintain possession in our own half.

We look 10x worse for it and I don't understand why we're doing it.

I think we have panicked slightly since going ahead. Robins will sort it at half time
