I would’ve hoped they’d start with the 478 stewards sitting in front of the Lower Loft for injury time when we’re 2-0 down to Preston to avert the pitch invasion. |  | |  |

Could have started with the 100s of academy coaches busy not producing any players, if so |  | |  |

I've found that when a manager / CEO, tells me he will take full responsibility for whatever cock up has occurred, it means some assistant down the line is getting fired. |  |

I thought it was interesting that Cookie said he'd enjoyed working with Bould last season. Mainly because we were generally pretty awful at the back and leaked goals despite Cookie's best efforts. I thought Bould was an inspired decision when he came in but when you ship 70+ goals in one season and in the last 6 games your players aren't even trying to close down shots, and you've been hit for 4, 5 and 7 during the season you'd think that whatever Bould is being paid it would be better off spent on someone else who can get the team to defend. Or maybe just spend that money on better catering? |  |

| Diarra set to leave on 16:00 - May 23 with 6546 views | BushRanger82 | Assistant manager. Something of a non-job in today's game. Don't think I heard his name mentioned once this season. |  | |  |
| Diarra set to leave on 21:25 - May 23 with 5934 views | mart_Goblin | My over riding memory of Diarra was in a rare moment of breaking from the rigid pre match routine I watched him coach Varane for about 5 mins on turning on the ball and moving forward . They did it over and over …until the game started and Varane proceeded to pass backwards at every opportunity. Not sure what it says about them both really. But always felt like this was a bit of a stepping stone for him. And maybe that’s been the problem for the last god knows how long . |  | |  |
| Diarra set to leave on 21:52 - May 23 with 5843 views | numptydumpty | Let's get Xavi Calm back in the building !!!! I am wondering whether these developments are the first of many announcements of departures. I have a nagging doubt running through my head, that Stephan will be out the door before we know it also. I hope he doesnt get moved on, and clearly would only lose his role, if there was already an all booked and signed for, new manager of the football club. |  |

| Diarra set to leave on 06:05 - May 24 with 5468 views | QPROslo | I saw decent improvements in a number of our players during last season, M'Bengue, Edwards, RND, Madsen, Vale, Smyth, Kone and Burrell. The only player I can think of who seemed to get worse was Saito, possibly something to do with his International duty. I think that is Credit in great part to the 1st team Coaching staff as a whole, of which Diarra played a big part. Hard to know from the outside which individual coaches have been good or bad. Stats don't tell the whole story. |  | |  |

| Diarra set to leave on 11:32 - May 25 with 4161 views | dmm | It maybe nothing but Diarra was called Stephan's assistant when he first came to QPR, yet in the official article announcing his departure, he's just described as "...part of Head Coach Julien Stéphan’s backroom team." Just seems a little strange. |  | |  |

Club is spinning it that Diarra chose to leave: https://www.qpr.co.uk/news/202 Think I might find that a bit more plausible if there were some quotes from Diarra on the subject. |  | |  |
