Barry the bird boggler Not too shabby 1st half followed by yet another inexplicably inept going forward 2nd half. Fail to understand why Hunt was not substituted and the one time he chooses to take McAnuff off was the one time he was our most effective attacking threat.
McDermott's substitutions this season have been largely completely bewildering.
I really would like to know how Jobi was a threat. I thought he was off the pace ( as he was when coming on v Arsenal) lethargic, not offering runs for his teammates and passing it to QPR more often than not. Most of his crosses didn't make it past the first man. He must have been pretty bad for Brian to take him off, a rare event indeed.
Having said that I agree that substitutions which almost always paid off last season seem to be poor this year. Much as I love jimmy I don't think it was the right move to bring him on in a tight game where we needed to get a firmer grip of midfield
