 Brilliant Clive.
Like on Saturday, I would't be surprised if we win by two or lose by five! Both sides are more than capable of looking disinterested, rather like Ryan Giles did for Hull last night when gifting two goals to Ipswich. |  | |  |

Fantastically written, as ever matching my opinions in a way I could never convey. Thankyou.
I don't like the way Nourry's QPR behaves. |  | | |

The people skills are one of the ways Christian Nourry’s regime betrays his and its inexperience the most.
Clive, that sentence from your review nails how I feel about Nourry. He epitomises the arrogance of youth and there doesn't appear to be an old head in his team that can provide him with some wise and much needed balance.
In my experience, there are certain people, often those who've been around for a good while, who will embody an organisation. Someone who carries its shared values, understands its strengths and weaknesses, and knows its history. Furs is undoubtedly one of those people at QPR. And Nourry is kicking him out. It's shameful. |  | | |

Spot on, Clive.
Superbly articulated. |  |

The Furlong paragraphs hit home.
Hard.
Abso-bloody-loot-a-ley love that photograph at the top of the piece with him and Birch.
I'm so glad I was an "Aussie Soap" type of fan at the those adverserial times - great, great, great days.
Thank you Furs. |  |

Excellent article. I note, however, that your prediction of an 1-1 away at Blackburn (against all historical precedent) means you can't have given up hope on the R's just yet, regardless of Nourry's antics 😉 | | | |

The club is showing a complete lack of class.
Nothing more to be said. | |

Incredible journalism Clive - A very powerful article indeed.
I really hope our owners read these articles.
For me the jury is out on Nourry. I totally agree with your Furlong piece and I will reserve full judgement until the end of the season. We do seem to have the best squad we have had in years (thanks to Eze again) and Rome wasn't built in a day. However I continue to struggle with the "Head of Performance" and "Head of Methodology" roles and the people fulfilling those roles. | | | |

Great preview, like everyone else hugely disappointed with the way Furlong is being treated by the man/child, first of all why did this have to happen i got the impression he was a good coach and secondly if it really did have to happen because it doesn't fit within the new over hyped coaching structure then at least wait till the end of the season. | | | |

The section on Furlong was just brilliant.
I'll take a point tonight. | | | |

Pardon my ignorance but WTF is an 'Aussie soap type fan''? | | | |

Am I the only one to think Blackburn’s improvement in form is possibly because of the absence of Cantwell rather than ‘despite’ it?
Overrated preening tosspot. Possibly a misprint. |  | | |

Football clubs don't respect their staff, and respect their fans even less.
Who knew?
THE END. |  |

The way we keep going through keepers I think The Flying Doctors could be ripe for a reboot.

In light of the Club’s Furlong statement this evening, I thought this deserved a bump with the superb section Clive wrote on the poor handling of his departure. |  | | |
