hakka Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 frustrating result, glad we pulled it back though to get the draw. The lads should be putting in a performance to win this. Disappointing as QPR are not a top Championship side. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Basically we will play shit and we won't win every game. They are probably one of the better sides in the league so 1-1 isn't THAT bad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 A point isn't a bad result, I reckon, because it sounds like we've been gash. Yup. Sounds like avoiding defeat would be some sort of accomplishment from the game. Didn't deserve much more after picking a defensive line up. Not sure it was the line-up, sounded like we just didn't play for 30 minutes. I know we won against Ipswich but I just don't think there's any need to pick both Smith and Butt at home. We sounded a lot better after the subs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayson Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Just an unlucky game tbh Even when you consider how badly we played. Its still taken them a deflected goal & us missing a pen for them to manage only a draw. Hardly class finishing from the opposition as usual. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Wally_McFool Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 One defeat and seven wins out of the next ten games please. (Cant win every week however much you want to.) Disappointing as QPR are not a top Championship side. They will go 4th if they win their game in hand. I think they are one of the better teams in the league.

Geordie Ahmed Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 We really should be winning our home games BUT cant grumble too much - a point is still decent and gives us a 3 point lead over 2nd spot side and 5 point lead over 3rd spot side. Lets hope we dish out a thrashing on Saturday Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

chicago_shearer Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 We didn't sound very good, but we didn't sound atrocious either. 3 points at the top is all that matters. We have a run of very winnable games in October, reason for optimism. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest palnese Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 We will win on Saturday against Bristol City. And then we go into the break, hopefully getting all players bar Shola (Barton) fit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

timeEd32 Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 They are now 11th (3 points back of 4th) with a game in hand on most teams. I think they are better than people were giving them credit for prior to the game. Bristol will get beat on Saturday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
colinmk Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Sounded poor. Butt needs to be dropped to the bench or we will start dropping points on a regular basis. Jonas didn't sound great but he should be given a run in the team without a doubt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 If these are the sort of 'slip-ups' we're to expect from our Championship season, then i say bring it on. We've got a minuscule squad (regardless of what Hughton says) and fatigue is going to kick in. These results are going to happen. I haven't seen the game or the performance, but if it was a shoddy one - then i wouldn't be surprised it's heavily down to tiredness following a very long trip and a heck of a performance down at Ipswich. We've got some fresh legs back for Bristol. With a bit of luck we'll have Taylor, Coloccini, Jonas and Harewood all ship sharp come Saturday, given the 'rests' and run-outs tonight. There's still Lovenkrands there who hasn't had a game upfront yet. Fingers crossed on the first two, like, but they didn't seem to be too badly injured. We need a wee re-shuffle imo. Some of these players are bound to be fucked. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JH Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Call it kneejerk, call it ridiculous, I don't frankly care but some of the play tonight was utterly pathetic. There was no sense of urgency and the finishing in the final third was wank. I mean christ, at 1-1 with 20 minutes to go, at home against an average Championship side, why were we hitting no-hopers up to Carroll and Harewood? We have the quality to pass properly and playing with a bit of movement in this league, not this long ball shite; we were hardly under the cosh. After Harewood's goal, there was only one winner in this. We may not have lost, but we certainly didn't deserve to win. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Gleebals Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Not a disaster - 3 points clear. Not a great performance but; R Taylor should be back Jonas is back Harwood scores Loven should be getting fitter We are still top - rewind back ten games and we would all have taken 23 points from 10 games. Onwards and upwards. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

EthiGeordie Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Fair result on the night... It would have been nice to go 5 points clear but it was not to be..... We need to be more consisit in the future. We have to show equal commitment we showed against Ipswich week in week out. Having lost Collo and RTaylor is not something small. Espically Colo he has been out unsung hero this season.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest toonlass Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 I am not going to complain. We have had games that we haven't deserved to win but have this season. Tonight was a flat, frustrating affair, and could have gone either way so a point is fair enough. West Brom are playing Preston at the weekend, if we beat Bristol City we could still be 3 points ahead come saturday night. In may, when we had been relegated I am sure most of us would have been happy with us being 3 points ahead in the league by the end of September.
