Obviously it will if we lose to Preston and then sink from there. |

Yes, in general, we need more articulate and entertaining criticism, not less, which is a big part of what this board is for, and what many people use it for. Like everyone else, I'm stuck with QPR and my mad love in the meantime, for which there is no cure. Not even The Cure. |

Clearly, and clearly not in our favour, but my question remains. |

Genuine question: Why was it in the 60s and 70s when our youth set-up actually was fit for purpose and bringing through the likes of Busby, Francis, Allen, and Goddard, these brilliant prospects WEREN'T getting 'snapped up' by those higher up the footballing food chain, so we actually managed to build a side? |

But that means we'd have to be very un-QPR and actually turn up for a must-win game! |

Romantic though I used to be, it's the 'transfer to the players' bit that's the flaw in this feel-good thesis. I could write a book on the history of Rs fans turning up in noisy numbers and the team abjectly letting them/us down. They don't deserve us, and I don't believe any of it makes a lot of difference other than fans making themselves better about their ineffectuality. We'll probably stay up by a squeak, but this squad is a law unto itself, and pro players' relationship to 'the badge' is largely and rather obviously a performative chimera. Don't shoot the messenger if you don't like the message! Our football club is, by and large, a joke played on us. [Post edited 14 Apr 14:23]

Was there a death-bed confession? |

We've struggled to a paltry 40 this whole nauseous season - only Rotherham (32) and Sheff Wed (35) have managed to miss more often than that. Thank the Subbuteo gods Marti has stiffened our defence as well as he has! Otherwise, we'd be in all manner of derring doudou! Does any whizz have our goalscoring stats since he arrived compared to the previous shitshow this season? (I don't get the feeling they've exactly skyrocketed.) |

I'm glad I'm not on whatever zombie drugs you are is all I'll say. |

Pedder has a touch of the Don Givens about him (he's actually now 22),and Bala looks an exciting prospect too. Do we think Marti might be looking to bring one or two of them through in earnest for next year's overhaul? |

Funnily enough, I read those arm gestures as him berating himself. In any event, it's clear, whatever his inadequacies, that one or two here just love to hate him whatever he does or doesn't do. If we still somehow sink, any sane fan will know the reasons lie elsewhere. |

I was thinking it could have been good PR for him and for the club if they'd lined him up for a post-match interview and he'd held his hands up about the g . . . Doh. |

I think your last line is the giveaway, but I do agree with the general view that Cook should be Captain Cook - and next season hopefully will be - now we can all presumably agree there's nothing wrong with his contract. How/where/when was he clearly blaming Uncs, by the way? |
| Forum Reply | Begovic at 06:05 10 Apr 2024
It was a howler, for sure, and not the first time, but he's also earned/saved us points this season with some excellent stops, and he's a lot better, like it or not, than anything else we have. At least as bad, if not worse, was Smyth's Junior school miss - all he has to do is prod it over the line, and I think we win the game. If anyone thinks one of our main problems this season has been our ageing Prem keeper, they're frankly crackers! [Post edited 10 Apr 6:06]

We're 'utter toilet' at home, but the manager's done an 'astonishing' job? Sorry, but could your oxys be any more moronic? |

Gulp! Wish I hadn't read that. You just know they'll break their duck now, rather than us handing out six of the best! Having expressed optimism before, I'm now worried that Sat's game will have spooked the players, and it'll be a scratchy and fractious performance with a red card for Jimmy and us losing to the odd goal in five. Sh*t! |

I'd really like to know Marti's and the coaching staff's view of his fabled 'potential'? How much 'development' do they think he has in him, and what's their evidence? And what about Armstrong himself? Does he fancy himself to become a 'top, top' player? |
