I wonder if, in these days, the generation gap between managers and players is harder to bridge. Deference to age has been eroded, football styles have changed significantly and quickly,so maybe time for a younger, more in touch manager to get the best out of our youthful squad. So kill two birds with one stone, Ryan Manning player-manager.


Well, maybe not, but i stand by my former points

managers dont really work, especially for us.

Cant we be the first club that allows the players to run things? Collective team selections, collective tactics, what could go wrong


Agreed. JFH, Holloway and now Captain Hair Island have all continuously shoehorned square pegs into round holes, deployed tactics that any idiot can see isnt working within 10 minutes etc, honestly I think I'm going bonkers. How bloody hard can it be?

A fan based sponsorship of an appointed fan to get his/ her UEFA Pro Licence and get the club to hire them?

After yesterday he needs to be sacked now

No effort , No pride and players out of position again to shoehorn in two strikers .

It's not even about the results he clearly has gone away from the remit and is causing long term damage to the club


This is the issue that really wrangles with me. Clearly Hemed and Wells are better players than Washington and Smith/Sylla but they have now played 11 games between them and the end result is one goal in total.
What obviously makes the situation worse is that by playing two up top (to no effect) and still continuing to select our two most creative players out of position, we have an incredibly unbalanced team.
Given our performances/results, I can't understand why McLaren continues with this ridiculous formation/team selection.
I've no idea what the answer is but surely if you play both loanees, you must provide them with wide players who can cross the ball accurately. Alternatively play Wells out wide as it seems to suit his game better and leave Hemed as a sole striker - which would enable either Eze or Freeman to be deployed in the position that suits them best.
But what the hell do I know?

Even if Annabella Lwin was kitted up in an open gusset barry sheen biker leather suit and offered me the glittering prize of tossing me off with her toe ring'd feet into a loving cup round the back of the Queen Adelaide armitage shanks shithouse while chopping out lines of pharmaceutical gak on her olive oiled Vastus Medialis, I still wouldn't make the journey down to W12 from leigh on sea.

The weevil infested Bengal famine mixture gruel served up over the years which some QPR fans devour as the bread of heaven cast from Fernandes divine hand isn't for me anymore.

I've long wanted Kenny Jackett here with his own Handpicked selected team and to be given a cast iron 5 year contract to overhaul this club, (that I've carried around in my soul since '77), from the root to the fruit and from the floorboards up.

..We'll probably end up with Kenny fu ckin' Lynch.

At least the Frankie Music Thread Remains free of links to the Guardian. For Now.

He looks like a manically depressed freddie starr on a brutal Tuesday morning comedown on the 7.13am chingford to liverpool street but Mark Robbins is Another I rate Highly.

Unfortunately there's more chance of me dropping unlubed ker-plunk sticks down my japs eye while munching on the organic fair trade sweetcorn in J K Rowlings fat free turds than getting him to leave Coventry City for QPR.

We need a manager we can mould, not a manager that will mould us. We would become Paul Scholes's QPR in the same way it's Frank Lampard's Derby or Steven Gerrard's Rangers.

No big names, no big profile, no big egos, no big baggage.

No, some would say they make Dave Bassett's Wimbledon look like the 1974 Dutch team. Playing Adebayo Akinfenwa up front, you'll get the picture.

This would be the one thing about Ainsworth becoming manager that would worry me. I appreciate he's on a tight budget at Wycombe and in that situation you play to your limitations but has he got it in him to change/adapt his style?

But we are playing 4-4-2 now and our only way out of being behind is to bring on Matt Smith
Apart from a 45 minutes against Millwall we are not exactly Ajax circa 1994
We need to be well organised and not concede that’s the first thing we need to do ,the last 3 games we have scored none and conceded 6
So if Ainsworth is the man and we are physical side then so be it , I’d rather this than McLaren weak as p1ss teams getting bullied

And Bowles is onside, Swinburne has come rushing out of his goal , what can Bowles do here , onto the left foot no, on to the right foot That’s there that’s two, and that’s Bowles Brian Moore

Everytime I see Mclaren in post match interviews he gives me the impression of a whipped mutt, A man beaten to a husk. Dragging his carcass out of the kelly hoppen duvet every morning Only to service the fiscal burden of school fees, mortgages, investments, pensions, His wife's colonic treatments and all the normal bills that we all on here have to service every day in the 10 yards in front our faces 24/7. All Love for the beautiful game long gone. Event Horizon Misery.

I remember the picture of him the day he joined, i've seen happier faces outside Ilford public Toilets in valentines park where the clucking meatrack skagheads wait to jack off their punters in the Japanese knotweed on a romantic bed of mongrel dog shit, discarded low t cell count toxic condoms, bloodied needles and boxes containing mutant fried chicken.

Looking at his mush after the Swansea game he reminds me of a gone to seed high class Escort and Matriarch reduced to slumming it In a down at heel Plaistow brass house lamenting the bela lugosi apparition that stares back at herself in the mirror every morning.

Another day beckons sucking diseased flaccid dirty jailbird cock for a paltry ten spot note and breaking the seal of a new packet of kleenex, while in her minds eye she remembers the good times, as the concubine of royalty and fine dinning at The Wigmore club with obscenely rich venture capitalist's and Mp's who drink her salty piss from an erlenmeyer flask in return for a couple of grand in crisp £50 notes.

..As Mclaren rolls into training on this pisshole monday morning at this mausoleum of a club, he looks over at matt smith running about like he's got grandfather clock weights in his bollocks and Scowen showcasing the first touch of the yorkshire ripper with his claw hammer. Steve recalls the hand crafted Gnocci , the coarse salted red snapper and syracuse polenta in the fine Italian restaurants of Chester with giggsy, Scholsey, Stevie G and Rudd van fackin Nistelrooy.

Can't believe it's not working out.

I'm assuming you've heard of the phrase "Lies. damn lies and statistics"?

Here are some alternative stats:-

Win our next 2 games and we are ahead of where we were last season

1 point per game is pretty much on a par with the first half of last season. 22 points from 21 games, 27 points from 25 games.

In the previous season we got 29 points from 25 games, so went backwards last season.

After the Sheff Utd game we went on a run of 10 games where we picked up 6 points (1 win and 3 draws) and a negative goal difference of -10.

A couple of posts from you during that run when people were suggesting we get rid of Holloway:-

"No no no let's have a new manager every year or 6 months whichever you prefer.

Or the club could have a raffle each season for all ST'S and members, the winner can be manager themselves or can pick a new one."

Taking a step back from this all for a moment, things must be really desperate if the only people we can realistically entertain as managers are ex-QPR players and people who have managed us before. Or are we really so broken that only such people could handle the role?

This club....

His enthusiasm may rub off on some of the youngsters and perhaps he can drum into them how proud they should feel to wear the shirt, like he did. And when given the opportunity, run through f*cking walls for the team even when your limbs are no longer connected to the rest of your body they way they should be, like he did.

Ainsworth is a good shout. At least he wouldn't be Steve McClaren.
My other shout is Shaun Derry for much of the same reasons above, a leader who gave everything for the shirt. If that meant crippling your opponent in a late tackle, as long as it wasn't done for the wrong reasons....so be it.

Looks alright to me DD, what's the worst that could happen? Avoid this place and your phone for live updates from Stadium Waitrose and you'll have a lovely time. I've still got 'Foxtrot' and 'Nursery Crimes' lurking upstairs in my loft somewhere along with the remarkable tomb 'The Nuts and Bolts of Reinsurance'. A veritable Alladin's Cave up there I'm telling you. Anyway, if it's any consolation I'm off to see ex World Cup Snooker Champion of multiple occasions Steve Davis DJ in Bristol on Saturday night. We're promised a Prog / Techno hybrid of a set. I'm not even joking! I'll let you know.
