I agree with the people who think it might be good to shake up the midfield a bit. I would like to see Karacan getting a start again. Even though I like Harps I don't think it would be a bad thing to give him a rest every now and again or Cisse for that matter. I would also like Tabb to be thrown into the mix.

As I have stated before I am not a big fan of Matejovsky so I wouldn't replace Harper or Cisse with him. I think Boris is a great person to have on the bench.

People around me were getting upset that we didn't make any subs, but I was looking at the bench and thinking who would make a difference?


I agree but think Tabb would have increased our options over Marek.

If Coppell didn't feel he had a sub worth bringing on in an attempt to the win the game he needs to re-assess who he puts on the bench.


Maybe SCC decided that 0-0 was good. He played not lose and hoped for a win. Going for the win might have cost us the game

This was an important result (not getting beat).. it starts a possible unbeaten run, whereas a defeat
after the win against Wolves would have taken away all the plusses.

I'd like to see Cambell - Ryce come in even if Hunt stays, a quick, strong winger, who can play both sides and actually push Kebe and Hunt for their places.


+1..............just as we should have signed some serious competition for Shorey long
before he left.

It's not as if we can't afford it or are currently over loaded with wingers. We could do a lot worse than sign rice 'n' peas tomorrow as a sign of our intent for the rest of the season and an invitation for Stephen Hunt to show us just how much he'd still like to be a part of this club.

I'm growing tied of getting out the prayer mat twice a year for players who were nobodies before we signed them......................we really don't deserve it and have the funds to guard against it somewhat better than we do.

OLLIE KEARNS We've been sussed since we stuck 6 and 4 past Sheff Wed and Swansea in that everyone plays a defensive 4-5-1 against us and stops us getting width. And yet we continue on an upward curve points wise.
Yesterday was typical of the whole scenario. We were the better side in the second half but still without a great deal of creativity. Would you utilise a "match changing bench" (Matejovsky maybe ?) or stick with what you had given that we were the only side likely to win the game at that stage ?
It's a difficult question for sure. I can just understand why Coppell would continue to go with a formula that is picking up more points that all of our rivals. Even though I'd prefer your option as far as watching enjoyable football is concerned :)

My thoughts entirely Ollie. I remember in the 94/95 season we had a storming run of games but pretty teams adapted to our style of play to try and nullify it.

If we can't win well, win ugly. It's the Branfoot mantra!

SLAMMED
Ashfordroyal From these photos Slammed, you must have been behind me, I was sat next to the "odd couple" that moved in the first 10 mins. The reason they moved was because the idiot behind them kept efin and blinding continually.
But please tell me you are not the tosser who slagged the team off the whole game shouting,
"this is fkcin sh*t"
"fkcn sort it out"
"your all twats"
"fkc off to Spurs Hunt"
etc. etc. etc.
In fact I nearly saved the stewards a job.



Nah i wasnt the tosser, he was sitting next to me. He pissed me off as well. Every 5 minutes i would get "Hunt dont take the corner your f*cking sh*t!" hammered into my right ear.


Glad to hear it Slammed.

We get this crap every single home game - the woman behind us screeching about how crap the team/game/weather is for 90+ sodding minutes, including an almost homicidal reaction to everything S Hunt does. You wonder why she bothers.

Row HH Y25 or around there is full of tw@ts who seem to think if a player makes one mistake he is crap and should be subbed. The same tw@ts were forever slating Doyle at the start of the season, seem to have shut up recently for some reason.

You've already mentioned that you reckon me and Schards were sat/stood there. I hardly spoke all match - I was too busy singing. I did notice some bloke staring at me everytime I looked around, I just presumed he'd been let out for the day.

These numptys are all part of the rich tapestry that is watching football matches. There was a bloke last year in Y25 who stood up and screamed "Taxi for Coppell, Taxi for Coppell" everytime someone made a mistake. Makes a sane man feel good about himself. :lol:

Yeah, I guess people have a tough old week and let it all out at the match.
Good for the soul.

Wasn't that good for the Seol.
Most of that was justified though

Yeah, he was a frustrating player to watch, was he lazy?
When he was good, he was very good.
But when he was bad, he was awful.

He's playing in the Middle East at the mo...

Cold.
2 chances in the whole game.
QPR shaded first half.
Reading shaded 2nd half.
Both teams v organised.
Both defences played well.
Routledge shone for them.
Helguson a handful, should have scored his chance.
We badly lacked someone like Little or Shorey who have such fantastic first touches and could have perhaps bought themselves some time on a day when no one else could.
Pearce, Doobs, Rosenior and Cisse shone for me, with Doyle and Lita working v hard without reward.

I won the dance off at Marylebone, but Tredder and Dickie Davies were so steaming, it hardly seemed fair to claim the victory.

Agreed. Plus...

Was that pitch big enough? Seen Under 12's playing on apparently bigger surfaces. (As well as being on par in quality with Rabson's/Prospect Park/Palmer Park etc.) Thought that the ref should have sent 2 players off from either side to give the teams enough room to play properly. (Harper - as much as I like him - and SHunt would have been my choices)

Thought Jimmy had a good game helping out Liam in defensive duties (although his attacking game was, well.."disappointing")

Impressed with Leroy's effort throughout the game - shame he wasn't 6ft 2 or he would have scored from Doyle's fantastic cross near the end.

Also my first visit to Loftus Road - puts to rest the idea that only new stadia can be soulless - although I thought it was very worthy of them to set aside part of the South Africa Road Stand side of the ground as Council Flats (complete with grubby net curtains)
