..that the secret to success in the Prem is being prepared to lose in order to try and win?
I'm sure I may have.
Big Sam may be a fat w@nker, but he's right on the point made earlier. Parking the bus and hoping we do to everyone else we play what we did to the Scum is going to get us relegated.

We are going to need to our own dirty work rather than rely on others I'm afraid. |

Of course, but the situation isn't as dire as our pathetic number of points might indicate. Yet. | | | |

Right now seven points separate the bottom six clubs. If all six, or even five, remain in the relegation fight (ie: they don't pull well away or get left at the bottom) it reduces the number of points the survivors require to stay up. Reading beating Newcastle today is huge for us – provided they don't go on a run – as long as the bottom teams stay close together each of them has a chance. |
That kind of reasoned West Coast positivity deserves its own thread |  | | |

Under Hughes, we had plenty of time to find points and wins. Under HR, we don't.
Have a look back at my old posts re Hughes. I freely admitted I didn't have any time for him as a person, but I wanted to see him succeed because it would have given our club the stability it has desperately needed for decades.
I detest Redknapp and am appalled he's at the club, but moreover there is nothing long termist about his appointment. It will mean more players in and out, more money out, in this window, in the Summer (even if we stay up) and again once when he is replaced (which won't be too long because again he isn't the face that our owners will want to promote the QPR brand). If he is going to take us down playing negative rubbish, then wtf is the point of having him here? | | | |

our backs are against the wall because of hughes,he has left us with this squad .Harry is having to employ these tactics just to give us a fighting chance,so please give it a rest.

I don't think we set up to 'park the bus', the starting line-up was positive.
In fact it's more worrying that we tried to take the game to West Ham and couldn't, and then made substitutions to try to save a point.
Our midfield was anonymous. It was crying out for Faurlin to slow the game down and retain possession. He really must not be fancied by Arry.

We played them on the break early doors.Remy got through 3 times .Twice he was offside ,once he scored.
Then we really tried to shut up shop and it didnt work. |  |

For me, and not for the first time this season, his substitutions and were poor and his unwillingness to tamper with the formation as and when the match required it has cost us. Can't see how Faurlin couldn't have been introduced into midfield as someone who could win and distribute the ball. Never saw Mackie involved in the game at all, but I did see WHU playing ONE at the back again and again. Pushing Mackie up to join Remy would at a stroke have kept their back four in defence rather than overrunning our midfield. Bothroyd on rather than Hoilett? Do me a favour.
We've gone looking for one point and hoping to pinch three. That isn't the right approach in our position, and we will pay for it, |
Re boothroyd ,harry knew at that point the ball just kept going back to them , and like it or not boothroyd is the only one we have on the bench who could maybe hold it up and bring others into the game, also we were conceding a lot of corners and his height could help us defend,
we didnt play well at all today but we got a point and that brings confidence.

That’s there that’s two, and that’s Bowles

We are 5 points from teams out of the drop zone rather than the 9 points+ we were a few weeks ago. It would be lovely to go on a big winning streak and do what fakes have done and get 2 back to back wins, but we are slowly creeping back into this. Don't right us off getting something out of the City game. |  |

Don't think HR is thick, so you must be saying he's vain ?
As far as I can remember, defensive football is not really his style either, he's probably playing with what he's got ? [Post edited 1 Jan 1970 1:00]

+1 we have a glimpse of the light thanks to HR, gambling all at this stage of the game where every point counts is stupid and should be confined to the betting shops and websites and not the real world. Let me spell it out, if we stay up its because of HR and if we go down its because mh took us for a ride there is no middle ground here, hes doing the best he can with the players we have end of. |  | | |

The fact you supported Hughes when nearly everyone else sussed out he was a con man takes away a lot of credibility when criticizing Harry's tactics . Harry stopped us leaking goals, bought a goal scorer (hopefully), beat Chelsea, two points from hard London derby's, unbeaten this year,WBA away and we have team spirit at last . Pretty football wont keep us up and the fact we are still using Derry, Hill and Nelson for defensive stability after the money spent shows what a mess we were in.
Bring back hughes ! |  |

I don't dispute that we need to attack to win some games but that's a sight easier said than done if you inherit the sort of shambles Hughes left here.
Every time we've had an incompetent the first thing I've seen a decent manager do to repair it is to get the team doing the simple things right - sort the defence, get some clean sheets, make sure players know their position and role in the team. You have to build from the back.
I'd be very surprised if our 'arry has enough time to turn things around - price we pay for Fernandes trying to be a good owner and give Hughes a fair chance - but that doesn't mean he's not doing the right things. At least he's stopped QPR from being an embarrassment to all of us every Monday morning | | | |

hughes is the man to blame for the mess we are in
he bought in an england keeper and dropped him after 1 game if he had so little faith in him why bring him in!!!!!
he never got to grips with our centreback problems NELSEN was brought in as cover not to play every week
bosingwa wow he sure got suckered there
diakite what happened to him?
park sold a dummy by his old boss
granero we're in a fight is he a man that will fight?
plan A UP FRONT zamorra johnson tWo injury prone strikers and guess what happens
PLAN B there was no plan B apart from a sulking cisse
redknapp IS GOOD but he cant work miracles overnight he's made us much stronger ,today we would have lost 0-4 under hughes,but clock is ticking
man city
norwich
swansea
man utd we relly need two wins from these ,then its march and april lots of massive games and points on offer but if we are still in bottom 3 after them then i think its safe to say we are down |  |

After a first win against a poor Fulham side, we lost three in a row, matches I'm sure most of us – and HR – thought we should have got something from. Based on his very positive comments after the Liverpool loss – which many us of thought was just trying to maintain confidence among players and supporters – I think he realised he'd figured it out. Taking off Cissé at HT was the turning point – with luck for the rest of our season. We have got to get in the face of every oppo player in our half, cover, cover, cover some more and take what we can get on the break. If that means playing with one striker, or no striker, it's what we have to do. We've got one of the best goalkeepers in the world – who looks like he's really enjoying himself TBH – and a pretty decent back-up. HR's also built a resolute defensive system that's working well, plus we have skill and speed up-front. We're only missing, what in ice-hockey is called the "transition game," the shift from the defensive back-foot to the offensive front one, we lack consistent speedy break-out, and the killer pass. We scored that way early on today and will do again I'm certain. I don't know if we'll stay up, but the signs are good, and, even if we don't, we're not going down with a whimper. That's all you can ask.
It's worth asking would you rather be in our shoes, or Newcastle or Southampton's today? Personally it's no contest, even though they're both above us in the table. [Post edited 1 Jan 1970 1:00]

We got a point against a team that embarrassed & humiliated us at home.
We also took the lead.
Compared to the shame we endured under MH that is massive progress.
And that is a fact.

In a sense, we've already been relegated once this season. Unusually, we've been given a second bite of the cherry.
Whether we have enough quality to take advantage, remains to be seen. [Post edited 1 Jan 1970 1:00]

After the goal Remy was hardly ever in the same positions for the rest of the game. Players might have lost some tactical discipline but after 30 mins Harry still had an hour to do something about it, he didn't and the inevitable happened. |
Remy could/ should have scored in 91st minute.
