I think you are too hard on QPR, yes, Palace was the better team, but in no way by the margins you argue. We played well. Their goal was a fluke, it was heading for a draw.
Watch it again and repent. |

It still doesn't make any sence to me that you have to change the very justification of the team, the Origin Story for many of us of a lifetime of hope and hopelesness in supporting a footballing team. Passing accruacy below 50 pst is a joke. QPR were on top just a few months ago as a footballing team. We have picked up some injuries, and need to adapt, but this regression back to the stone age is too painful and should not be necessary. |

I don't particularly enjoy watching a "passing team" complete less than half of their passes, and am here encoraged to accept that as a necessity to avoid supporting a club that has passed. Sigh, is that really so? Our creativity is truly shot with Willoch and Chair out of the team. When they come back, I hope we can revert to something more akin to whom we are. And there's always next season. |

A team that wants to chase promotion, cannot afford an attacking player that does not score. All "toil, effort and line leading" doesn't change that. |

Playing Lumley was enough to lose us the match. His save percentage is 0.565 this season, the worst in the CC and his worst ever ( https://fbref.com/en/comps/10/Championship-Stats#all_stats_keeper_squads).
Selectng him again is a disservice to the club, the fans and to the man himself.
When the obviously weaker goalkeeper is picked, it's a stretch to insist that you had "very little problems" with the selection.
Kane - as pointed out by Tomo-5 - is struggeling, he is simply too often out of position. I hope selling Furlong was forced upon us. On the left, Manning's game has simply deteriorated the last two months, a pity, given the good start he had to the season. And obviously, BOS should have played.
OK, we lose out on the monies from an encounter with MCity, and that's bad. It also bothers me that the game was on the box, not only in the UK, but all over. I see no obvious reason not to play with our best team, given an exposure like that, and the league position we're in.
I don't think our display was a particularly healthy contribution to a widening of our fan base. And I, for one, don't find any pleasure in thinking about QPR as a small time club for those "special enough" to acknowledge our charm. I want us to be big. To me, Chelsea are our natural enemies. Maybe starting to support the club as an eleven year old in 1973, has something to do with it...

Warburton forfeited this game. We had more than a fair chance to go through to the fifth round. His team selection made sure that wouldn’t happen. Leaving BOS and Wells on the bench, defending with Manning, totally out of form, and Kane, still struggling with his positioning.
And, again, going with the goalkeeper that has the worst stats in the CC. Who, again, let us down.
So we lose the game. Hardly a surprise to anybody that has seen at least some of our games this season.
But this does not make any sense to me. The game was on the box not only in the UK, but in a number of other countries as well. Shouldn’t it be important to QPR to come across as a club with ambitions and at least some quality when given a rare occasion to access a wider audience?
Does Warburton, or anyone else at the club, for that matter, think that this performance contributed to a widening of QPR’s fan base here and abroad?
Even more pertinent, the team selection was disrespectful to the fans. We spend a lot, a lot!, of our time and money supporting this club. We’re talking serious commitment here. And the FA-cup is a big deal.
We have a right to expect our club to try it’s damndest to progress, given a chance like this. That didn’t happen. And that, to my mind, is a disgrace. This I will not forget.

We cannot use Lumley in goal. He was not in the team for this match, I know, but this point is to important to leave out, no matter the context. Lumley is simply a bad goalkeeper, he might be a nice guy, but he is a bad keeper, and that's the trait that I'm paying to witness.
The Cardiff goal was a travesty. He saw the ball coming, all the way from 22 yards, and he still couldn't manage to move his body behind the ball.
A steady string of basic mistakes, no depth perception and without any authority in the box. A serious contender in the CC, must use a keeper that can be a matchwinner, rather than a liability.
