Re: AFC Bournemouth Yesterday.....

Yes Young Kerrins long gone are the days when FA Cup game had that magical feeling. It gave lower league teams chance to play against first and second division teams with the chance of an upset however remote. It was a different feeling walking up to the ground on a Cup day whoever you were playing ...

Re: Chris Ramsey has left the Club...

Many on this board will be mortified by such news! :D
Hopefully a start of getting rid of our bloated staff and at long last getting staff who can coach
and make a difference after nine wasted years.

Re: Time for the hierarchy at QPR to stand up and back Cifuentes

You can guarantee we will get our usual crop of sick note midfielders in. :roll:
We cannot afford to not splash some money out on a League1/2 goal scorer.
What have we got to lose? FFP seems to be in a mess at the moment so we should go for it.

Re: Time for the hierarchy at QPR to stand up and back Cifuentes

No DOF with football brain/connections is not going to help in this window. Who is going to make decisions on new players as Marti will not be up to speed with UK players. The Board seems to have disappeared so no utterances from them. I assume Marti was at least given some encouragement to join us ...

Re: "We Need to Look at Ourselves in the Mirror"..

Dykes Kelman and Armstrong are not and never will be regular goal scorers full stop.
They have all had plenty of chances to grab that goal scoring position.

Dykes did look better playing with Austin and that should be his position playing off a proven goal scorer.

Re: Time for a clear out Marti

Much talk of Armstrong and Dunne going.
Both have deleted Rs references on Instagram etc.

Team news for Ipswich will be interesting

Re: "We Need to Look at Ourselves in the Mirror"..

I don’t know about looking in a mirror. If it is on a par with their goal scoring ability they will have trouble finding one to look in! :roll: I think Marti is probably giving all the first team squad a chance to prove they are worth keeping either in their usual or different positions and yes I ha...

Re: "We Need to Look at Ourselves in the Mirror"..

I have seen several mentions Scandinavian players cannot be released at this time due to the way their
leagues operate in the winter months.
If it is true I hope someone is looking a potential signings in this country.

Re: Christmas Day 1954 & a 1-0 Win for the R's...

Surprisingly small crowd for the time. It was not unusual to play Christmas and Boxing Day in the early days. If players complain now about frequency of games what would they say to that! The players were also paid a pittance in comparison but just got on with it with a smile on their faces and one ...

Re: Owls Game

At least Marti now knows that Dykes Armstrong and Kelman are incapable of creating or scoring goals. We can’t keep relying on midfielders and the odd defenders goal to get a win. have no threat up front to worry defences and by the time our ponderous midfield reaches the opposition area it has given...
