It's here, it's matchday. The day when the match takes place. It's QPR, it's Burton they're meeting today in a fixture already being described as Queens Park Rangers vs Burton Albion. It'll be a challenging one and think we might well have to score three to win, although we should hopefully be capable of doing that.

At the game and almost fell asleep. Burton's tactic revolves around isolating Furlong which they have done well. |  | | |

HT.
Will have to change something. This game is glacially slow. Sylla doesn't make the ball stick and Smith's introduction means we'll probably go long-ball. The problem is midfield today, I think. We need to get control there somehow. We're missing Luongo. Even Doughty would've done a job here to slow it down and keep possession and force Burton back. Once you've done that you then bring the forwards into the play, fail to do that and who plays up front really doesn't matter. |
God, that was such a sh*t half.
Missing luongo immensely.
Yeni the ghost a complete passenger so far. I'd bring Manning on for him asap.
Whole team look like they don't know what shape we're playing and how we're meant to play. It's all so slow and aimless. We deserve to be behind. |  | | |

The only problem with that is that Burton don't deserve to be ahead! |  |

Some feedback from a friend who's sitting in my seat, he's been a player in his time and not known for sugar coating things:
Jack Robinson playing CB poor to average. Alex Baptiste very average. Long ball and slow
Jake Bidwell all left foot ok ish...
Front two work hard Connor and Jamie but need support
Pawel and Luke Freeman and have been disappointing...
Yeni Ngbakoto is promising but needs to move the ball a little bit quicker |  | | |

Smith is on. Not sure who went off. My slightly over-exuberant half-time cooking led to repeated smoke alarms in my house. | |

It sounds like watching the text commentary is the way to go Acton. Thrills, spills, occasional spelling mistakes - this has got it all! |  |

You can't fault Olly's attacking intentions.
Removing Furlong and Yeni to bring on Bright and Smith.
Let's hope this doesn't go tits up. |  |

We're gone all traditional and probably the right call. We needed something on the left. | |

Nice build-up by Baptsite leads to Washington's shot in the box. No commitment in the shot, though. Cleared easily. | |

Washington seems to hit too many of those 'just get it on target' shots for my liking. | | | |

I've got my sister and her family over from Aus, so can only pop in occasionally. Are we winning yet? |  |

In other news, my rugby team "Bath" have come from 0-19 down to score 32 unanswered points! So at least I've got one entertaining replay to watch later. | |

I've just seen one of the old characters in the East Paddock. A bearded Irishman who was always happy no matter of the result. True to form he was smiling away. | |
