Dave Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 I wouldn't say we were solid at the back early on. In fact we were all over the place. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cp40 Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 always turns out like this (flat) after we beat a big side then play a smaller club on a sunday lunch time- recipe for laclustre tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 Correct me if I'm wrong but I can only a recall a couple of chances for QPR. One coming from an awful Ryan Taylor clearence, the other from Guthrie being dispossessed about forty yards from goal. First twenty minutes we were there for the taking and Bothroyd only troubled the fans sitting behind the goal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flip Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/blog/2012/jan/15/newcastle-hatem-ben-arfa Nice seeing him getting the recognition our manager has failed to give him all season. Pardew has mentioned Ben Arfa's qualities a few times, did today in fact Oh and yet benched him all along. :S Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

First twenty minutes we were there for the taking and Bothroyd only troubled the fans sitting behind the goal. Ben Arfa gave one away where it clipped the post on its way out, SWP hit the top of the bar, the early shot by Helgusson & the shot that Krul parried and Colo was tackled when he tried to take it away where it went for a GK. If QPR had a decent striker who could score we could of easily drawn/lost today Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sifu Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 Shola makes falling over an art form. At the time, I thought "f***'s sake Shola". Looking back at it now (and seeing as it wasn't a costly lack of concentration), it was actually funny Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 However, utterly bamboozling selections by the Pardy man with regards to our midfield when Yohan went off. Gosling's sat on the bench, yet he throws Perchy on. You say that, yet every time we've hoyed Perch on in CM for the last ~15 minutes, we've never looked worse, or severly under pressure as a result. He's a liability as a defender but for me, he's fairly useful to chuck in there to see the game out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGuv Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 I still hate it when he comes on though. It just stinks of shutting up shop. Which is fine, but all the time I feel we're a hell of a lot more vulnerable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah for fuck sake man!" but it doesn't even register any more. I think there is a decent player in Perch, unfortunately he is a 'sliding doors'* player, where if he was a second earlier in everything he did he would be pretty good. Unfortunately he is the second version of him which makes most tackles mistimed. *Just made that up, not even seen the film but from what I understand it's about someones life and how it would have all been different if they got on a train a bit earlier or something, isn't it?
