Ten-man QPR broke their duck at the Madejski Stadium with a hard fought win. Wayne Routledge scored the winner, but there were heroes in every position on Friday night. The similarities with last season’s game at the same ground were uncanny. Six players remained from our team that lost to an eccentric refereeing performance last Continue reading

QPR (2) – Portsmouth (0)
According to Steve Cotterill, Pompey were the better team and played us off the pitch as they did at Fratton Park (again his words). They ‘out-bullied us’ would be a better way of putting it as their game plan seemed to just use their physicality to stop us playing and IF the ball should manage Continue reading

Team: Kenny, Orr, Hill, Gorkss, Connolly, Derry, Taarabt, Faurlin (Vaagan Moen), Routledge, Smith (Hulse), Miller (Ephraim). Subs Not Used: Cerny, Hall, Chimbonda, Shittu. Attendance: 20,601 I woke up with a feeling that we were gonna run riot at the KC Stadium, funny how halfway through the game that changed and the uproar was of a Continue reading
QPR v Coventry City – Back To Winning Ways (Steve Claridge Must Be Gutted)
Rangers extended their lead to 5 points at the top of the Championship as they came from behind to beat Coventry. Goals by Adel Taarabt and new loanee Wayne Routledge saw us win our first game of 2011 to complete a league double over Coventry, a mere 26 days after the away fixture. Routledge was Continue reading
Burnley v QPR
Team: Kenny, Orr, Hill, Gorkss, Connolly, Derry, Taarabt (Hall), Faurlin (Clarke), Vaagan Moen, Smith, Hulse (Helguson). Subs Not Used: Cerny, Borrowdale, Cook, German. Attendance: 14,819 After my trip to Blackburn last week, I thought I would take the train for my journey to Burnley, how I would regret that later ! Arrived in Burnley to Continue reading
Blackburn Rovers v QPR
FA Cup 3rd Round. On this occasion I’m a lucky Ranger as it only took me two hours along the M62 and a road that looked like something out of ‘American Werewolf In London’ (the moors part) and I was at the Fernhurst Pub near Ewood Park at 1pm, where a fair few QPR fans Continue reading
QPR v Bristol City
Team: Kenny, Orr, Walker, Hill, Gorkss, Derry, Taarabt (Vaagen Moen), Faurlin, Mackie, Smith, Hulse. Subs Not Used: Cerny, Borrowdale, Rowlands, Clarke, Agyemang, German. Attendance: 15,618 I’m obviously frustrated and disappointed like everyone else that we didn’t take the 3 points on offer. There was a slight re-shuffle at the back following Connolly’s red card at Continue reading
Norwich City v QPR
Team: Kenny, Hill (Orr), Gorkss, Walker, Connolly, Derry, Taarabt (Tofas), Faurlin, Clarke, Mackie, Helguson (Agyemang). Subs Not Used: Cerny, Borrowdale, Rowlands, Hulse. Attendance: 26,273 The first half Rangers performance was very poor – probably on a par with the Watford game. We looked all over the place with a weak defence and no real attack Continue reading
Leeds United v QPR
Team: Kenny, Orr, Hill (Hall), Gorkss, Connolly, Derry, Walker, Taarabt, Mackie, Smith (Ephraim), Hulse (Clarke). Subs Not Used: Cerny, Rowlands, Tofas, Helguson. Attendance: 29, 426 What a journey ! A pal of mine driving home to the Ealing area was back at 2am…and he had a Leeds fan on board for company. That must of Continue reading
QPR v Cardiff City
I’d like to start this report by saying what a useless specimen of a referee, Mr Kevin Friend is. Apparently he’s a Premier League standard official, could’ve fooled everyone inside Loftus Road on Saturday afternoon. Try as he might, he didn’t ruin what turned out to be a great afternoon of football as the two Continue reading
