| R's Taking the Michael of Bolton, QPR vs Bolton Wanderers Match Thread 07:15 - Aug 20 with 42535 views | Spaceman_P | The pun recommendation was too good to not use this week. Ok, first game out the way. Now onto the second. I see us winning this but it will be difficult. Going for a tight 2- 1 goals from Burrell and Ronnie Edwards. PS I'm not a fan of youtubers Thogden and his Dad who are both Bolton fans so I'm very much hoping we can beat them to rid these guys of their phoney smiles Plus they seem like another "stoke" type of team... hopefully not as bad a PNE though.

| R's Taking the Michael of Bolton, QPR vs Bolton Wanderers Match Thread on 17:05 - Aug 22 by Hooping_Mad | Thought we looked worse after the subs. Kone was a mile off for his big chance then got flagged everytime he touched the ball afterwards. Vale was wasteful today, but when did we install that big fecking magnet in row Z must have caused a few walking wounded. Clean sheet, lets move on. |
Thought we looked worse after the subs. 100% this!! The players that came on did well, but our momentum seemed to go |  | |  |

| R's Taking the Michael of Bolton, QPR vs Bolton Wanderers Match Thread on 17:40 - Aug 22 by Stainrod | Kone getting a lot of stick but at least he was involved. Burrell was on for half an hour and barely touched the ball. Vale has to score that header. Main problem I think was we were too slow. Nice passing out of defence and thru midfield - v slick - but never wanted to run in behind |
Kone had quite a good game, did get involved, held the ball up well at times and laid it off. But he never looked like scoring. Vale's header was as wasteful as Kone's one on one. The ball is in the air for a long time, he is running on to it and of course should have headed it downwards. [Post edited 22 Aug 18:16]

| R's Taking the Michael of Bolton, QPR vs Bolton Wanderers Match Thread on 18:00 - Aug 22 with 2358 views | numptydumpty | Its hard not to be disappointed after today. But was definitely a half decent performance apart from the obvious. On a better day thats a comfortable 3 nil win. Yes Bolton were very average, but they did win last week and no game in the championship is straightforward. Good to see Madsen come on and both the new full backs who both showed elements of promise. For me Saito and Kone were disappointing today but some crisp passing and a good attitude. Adamson again performed well. Shame we did not get the win, but overall cant really complain. Still shows lots of promise of a decent season ahead. |  |

Sorry but Poku was the weak link in the chain for me today and I would have brough on Smyth earlier for him but everyone see's games differently. [Post edited 22 Aug 18:05]

At least we've got an early contender for worst team ever to play at loftus road this year, there's usually 6 or 7 of them per season |  | |  |

We need to sort a few things out which will happen with more playing time. Players were getting in each others way a bit too much. Madsen, when available, should be taking the majority of corners and offensive FKs rather than Chair. Koné was clearly behind the play and needs to adjust his game accordingly, otherwise he'll find his minutes reduced. |  | |  |

Disappointed with Poku, a bit style over substance. Our shooting is much like our penalties, no pace and you can read them like a book. Their keeper must have been loving it, sort of game you can look good making relatively simple saves. Aim at the bloody corners. Thought Edwards was outstanding in CDM. Like Cirkin, not so sure about Lamptey. Overall we were good, so not too concerned if we can smarten up the finishing. |  | |  |

Strange what people see. I thought Saito was too light weight today and Poku showed elements of promise. [Post edited 22 Aug 18:27]

I thought Saito played pretty well, especially compared to some of the performances he was putting in last season. |  | |  |

| R's Taking the Michael of Bolton, QPR vs Bolton Wanderers Match Thread on 18:38 - Aug 22 with 1907 views | HammersmithR | Very frustrating today. We need to take our chances. Bolton looked dreadful in my opinion. Not sure our keeper made a save today. Bolton keeper kept them it. We had a nailed on pen towards the end when Chair was brought down. Would have been a red as well which the ref bottled. Need to get more bodies in the box when the ball is out wide. Thought Edwards was class. Reminds me of when Rice was moved from centre back to midfield. Just seems so comfortable there. Poku was very frustrating. Kone huffed and puffed. Needs to be more clinical if he wants to play a higher level. Hopefully Cirkin can now be our left back. |  | |  |

I know Chair is probably under orders from the coaching team but when something obviously isn’t working, try something different! [Post edited 22 Aug 19:10]

Absolutely this. Today just seemed to mirror previous seasons, a struggle to beat a newly promoted side, plenty of opportunities but make their keeper look good with poorly connected strikes on goal. When we do have good positions a reluctance to shoot let's the opponents escape. The excellent match report for Portsmouth suggested our three goals were rubbish in terms of the actual quality of the strikes on goal. This is true, none of them were clean strikes of the ball. Sure they went in but the shots were, if you can call them that, not clean connections and rather scuffed rather like the penalty shoot out with Millwall. Early evidence suggests we need a lot of work on shooting and get their foot through the ball. So two home games and one own goal for us which threatens to derail our potential if forwards can't kick a football properly. I hope I am wrong but early signs suggest we may have to rely on away wins to keep us up the table in keeping with recent seasons. On paper at least, Bolton should be one of the easier home games but no goals to show for it. We should dominate at home against a side up from league 1 but troubling we could not score for all the good approach play. |  | |  |
| R's Taking the Michael of Bolton, QPR vs Bolton Wanderers Match Thread on 19:34 - Aug 22 with 1440 views | OxfordHoops | Just back, a disappointing result, we played OK, wasteful with our chances though, another day we win 2 or 3 nil. Both Vale and Kone, the two main culprits. Good to see JCS fit and playing well, Ronnie also had a great game, Cirkin looked class, one particular pass played Saito in, inch perfectly. Lamptey is clearly in need of match fitness. Early days, lots to like about this team staying positive. |  | |  |

I dont get why Chair still is doing corners... when he wss injured Madsen and Vale were way better. Look guys still early days.... we should of won, we didnt but we didnt lose... team dominated the match. Blackburn next weekend. Still no baby.... they may need to induce in the morning. |  | |  |
