A good point for QPR today considering the players we have out.
Bristol City a very good side with the ball but very shy in putting the ball into the box and I can’t really remember Nardi making many saves considering the possession they had.
QPR goal was a great move and a great team goal.
Some good performances today and improvement shown from Ashby and Madsen. 3 standout players today. Morrison and Edwards but MOM today was Varane.
A good point towards safety |  | | |  |

Stats on BBC Sport say Brizzle only had 1 shot on target and Nardi made 0 saves |  |

I think they count shots blocked by defenders as on or off target by the balls trajectory as well as goals and shots saved. |  | | |

Not disappointed with that. Bristol improved in the second half but we had chances. Kolli, Kolli, oh Kolli. Oh well!
Considering our awful injuries I think that was a decent performance and point. |  | | |

We started well, lost momentum but deserved the point. The last two games make me feel optimistic about next season, even if we're losing our best player and Jimmy. Really need Marti to stay though... |  | | |

Before ko today, chances of staying up: 75%
Now, chances of staying up 90-92%
IMHO
Fine work today from the Rangers - thoroughly decent point against a good Championship team. Which makes me think that, thanks to this management team, we might well be a decent one too.... | | | |

I really didn’t think Bristol C were much cop - such small margins in this division between those pushing for promotion and those struggling (but a striker certainly can be the difference). Imagine them in the premiership next year?! |  | | |

Memories of square it Tommy with Kohli late on.
The lad has promise but a top player roles it to Smith | | | |

Dont blame Kolli for taking it on, it sat up at the wrong moment. Smyth would have put it in exactly the same spot any way |  | | |

Proud of my team today . Thought we were slightly the better side.
Make shift team took it to them in the first half hour .
Edwards was supreme today as was Morrison .
Madsen played by well in the first twenty and deserves credit.
Also what a contrast to the Cardiff debacle .
An absorbing game from start to finish. | | | |

Smyth was furious and he had every right even if he did not score it would be a shot on target,juicy rebound or maybe a tackle from behind and penalty .Anything would be better than that selfish shot into the crowd.
The ref was very poor IMO just like most of the ones we have it seems. 2 strong penalty shouts ignored ,the Dickie handball looked a dead on pen to me and let our little hobitts get the crap kicked out of them with zero protection .
Any pictures of Bristol city's goal yet I thought Andy sinton said offside but maybe I misheard him . |  | | |

Decent performance against a good side. I thought the draw was fair enough even though we could've sneaked it at the end with that Kolli effort. Both goals were very good and actually thought everyone put in a decent shift. Noone had a shocker. Midfield looked decent, defence very solid. Thought Jimmy had a very good game.
So much better than the slop served up against Cardiff.
Not sure why some felt Armstrong needed to be boo'ed but each to their own I guess |  |

I don’t do booing but he chose Bristol City over staying with us so not surprised some did . | | | |

Enjoyable game to watch with the pressure off for us, we looked quality for the first 20 minutes. The Asian munchkins and Madsen were playing some lovely stuff.
Ronnie Edwards was absolute class, he’s going to go far. Sat at the back and controlled the game, and him and Morrison were actually finding advanced midfielders with their passing. Who knew.
Nice that we’re ending the season like this with basically a reserve team. I hope Marti stays as one day one of his teams is going to click |  | | |

Sigh people clapping him around me until sanity prevailed and he got some stick. Even if for some reason you don't think he refused to sign a new contract, why clap an opposition player? It wasn't Les Ferdinand returning or some legend, it was Sinclair Tw£÷face Armstrong. Makes me cringe when Loftus Road is like that, personally. He can do one. |  | | |

Said on the thread at half time that for a team made up of fag ends and off cuts, we equipped ourselves very well today
That first 25mins was a joy. Yang was unplayable almost, Madsen was dominating the play and that ball from Dembele to Ashby was worth the admission fee alone.
But Bristol came back well, there movement off the ball was very good, best example was their goal
2nd half thought both teams faded a little, but they both put Herculean efforts in mid week so to be expected
Edwards, what a lovely player, reminds me of a Bobby Moore or Beckenbauer, just seems to glide across the pitch, and creates so much time for himself. Think Southampton will do well to hold on to him, my player of the season for me
Safe now... and just one word really left my.... Mykonos | | | |

Mostly agree with what has been said before with a comment on the Yang chance; Saito looked over before slipping the ball perfectly to Yangs feet where he made a complete hash of it.
The other thing I noticed was after a good 20 minutes or so, Varane dropped deeper and we started to get z bit overrun by Bristol. I know Colback got booked early but it seemed a strange tactical choice to get him playing deeper. |  |

Armstrong seemed genuinely upset about it at the final whistle, I think there are two reasons, one because he refused to sign a contract I think fans always take against that, and two, I think we were worried that is often the case he would come on and score. I thought Morrison handled him very we'll though. | | | |

Glad you're missing me too - as I pointed out to our Lofty Leader, I cop it with some when I 'over-post', cop it when I keep my powder dry. That's the madness of a football messageboard for you, folks. I've recently realised it doesn't actually matter what I write to quite a few here who'd rather be snide and self-righteous apropos their fantasy of a person they don't know than actually have the genuineness to engage with my footballing points
More importantly, as to the game, Some good things, some not so good things today, I thought, but a lovely goal and the players seemed to be much more relaxed post-Oxford, which I think helped a lot. Brizzle passed it around us at times in pretty pictures, and tended to 'look after the football' better, but ultimately had little end product. Kolli showed his inexperience at the end, but he's a promising player, and I like him. Dunne, Morrison, and Edwards were excellent, and Ashby did pretty well too, so who knows? Saito had one or two scintillating moments, and should have set up Wang, who did gamely, and may improve.
Madsen had a decent-ish 20 minutes, but he seems to be a player who needs acres of time and space to spray his passes, which you don't often get in the Champ. He's had nearly a season to win us over in an often poor side, hasn't managed it, and the manager obviously doesn't really rate him, even though he told us he (Madsen) had 'very high standards' a few months ago - and even though he was instrumental in bringing him in.
I think we do have some makings, but not enough nous, stability and creativity, and it concerns me that MC has had a year and a half at the club and there still seems so much re-engineering to do from front to middle to back. This season, for the most part, has really done my head in, and a third shitshow in a row would be too much to take next year, so I only hope those in charge are finally going to step up.

As others have already mentioned, what a ball from Dembele to Ashby! Set faces to 'stunned'.
With the team we put out, that performance was quite something. Thought Ashby had his best game in our colours and it was great to see Saito back. |  |

What about the Nourry stuff? I feel under-informed in the last couple of days.
You had that friend who played for a Scandinavian team whom I wouldn't mind hearing a bit more from - can he or she log in? It doesn't have to be real. |  | | |

I wouldn’t boo a player as it only encourages them, but I’ve no time for Armstrong 4 goals in 60 odd appearances and seemed to think he was far better that signing a contract with us, now no goals in 17 matches for Bristol. League 2 at best. |  | | |

Thought we looked good first half, so pleased with Madsen, anyone know why Bristol City got some of the school lower? |  | | |
