Did not come across to me as having a go in any way, shape or form. As you rightly say we feel each others pain and frustration. Just clutching at straws I guess  |

I was not suggesting that having missing players was the sole cause of or problems and 100% agree with the comments you make, what I was saying is based on facts, we have had lots of key players out injured long term.
I am not a fan of rumours but again I do accept key people at our club has made it impossible to trust what is going on behind closed doors at the club.
Having Varane and Saito back is a positive but again I agree their form has been awful, I would be more hopeful if the likes of Chair, Burrell, Madsen were back alongside them.
I was not in anyway suggesting good times were around the corner but just trying to put things into perspective. Perhaps our biggest problem is cannot see things changing anytime soon and that is a serious worry.
Take care mate and up the Hoops  |

Not a massive poster on here but spend a lot of time reading other people's opinions and I totally get and understand the frustration along with the negative comments posted over the last few weeks.
No doubt we have been god awful, no shape, unable to defend, unable to pass a ball to our own players from 6 yards, never look like scoring the list goes on and on . . . .
If we go back a while I am not saying all but the majority of us thought we had improved our squad significantly with the addition of Kone, Hayden, Poku and RND. That along with Chair being fit, Smyth, Vale, Saito (mixed opinions), Mbengue and finally Edwards. Not to forget Burrell who was a total surprise and has been excellent. With talk of JCS being fit and Madsen suddenly becoming a very good player hopes for the season was high.
Our biggest issue has been keeping our best players on the bloody pitch!!!! We saw last night with the introduction of a couple of players bought on how we improved. It is quite right to dig out underperforming players, as supporters we have every right to do so but as bad as Walsh is as a goalkeeper the way he has been treated along with the other two is deplorable. Kone is still very much learning his trade, has been pushed to his limit, without Chair to help hold the ball up and Burrell to support him his form has suffered.
So while I am as frustrated as everyone else my point is the unavailability of key players for long periods of this season is, in my view the key to our problems. Again on balance, I also think it is a joke to have Williams anywhere near our players.
Keep the faith boys, keep the faith. |

I really like Buttler as a player and as a person, you are quite right he is undoubtably a class white ball player but his last 10 innings are 2, 7, 3, 3, 21, 26, 25, 39 and 17. In his last two innings he looked like he had never played cricket before in his life. He is totally out of touch and something needs to change. Perhaps moving him down the order to protect him might help? I am no expert but this cannot continue if we want to win this tournament.
Also, on balance, it should also be pointed out that his opening partner (Salt) apart from one innings has also failed which has not helped. |

Totally agree a fantastic innings especially given he came into this match in poor form and had done nothing of note to date. Think that makes the innings even better. Unfortunately, it kind of papers over some very serious cracks in our batting performance. Buttler looks shot as a player at the moment and Salt (last innings apart) has looked poor. Today slashing at a wide ball when it was first ball up - sorry that is poor.
Having said that we are into the semi-finals even though we have been poor and in 20/20 cricket one player can win or lose you the match.
On our day we can win this - so come on boys step it up!!!! |

The series currently showing on BBC - Kingdom is truly fantastic. Filmed over 5 years the story lines and the filming is incredible how they do it I honestly don’t know. Narrated by the master it is nature programming at its very best. It is also very sad at times as well. |

Hi Hubble - unable to recommend anyone as per your request but I have both bought and sold businesses in the past in similar circumstances. When I sold a business I was advised NOT to accept a three stage payment as in the majority of cases you never get the second and third payment. Hindsight, is a wonderful thing and guess what my advisor was quite right, never got my money. Company ended up going bust (unlike your brother I was nothing to do with the business once I sold) but people who had worked for me told me they were awful people to work for.
I bought another business so the shoe was on the other foot but I gave personal guarantees the money would be paid by either the business or me.
I am sure your brother would have guarantees in place, not sure that will help but wish him very good luck. |

Personally I cannot wait until Monday night when the transfer window shuts. I know it makes reading BUT thread after thread, page after page based on nothing but pure conjecture, clickbait, opinions, then going completely off track.
Does it make good reading? Not really. Do I read most of it? Yes. Am I bored to tears with it all? Yes.
Think we have had a very good window and now just want to sit back enjoy the ride, good, bad or indifferent and see where we are come January.
Let's just remember we are all QPR fans, we are all perfectly entitled to an opinion, appreciate the hard work that goes into running this site and please show respect to each other.
PS Great win yesterday!!!! |

When Mark played for QPR I was lucky that after the games along with my dad we were invited into the players lounge while we waited for them to get changed. Hi mother used to sit on a big chair in the corner, she like Mark was a wonderful person who although I was only a child always spoke to me along with him.
Great memories, great man, great player. RIP Mark |

Quite a few years ago the company I worked for was taken over by a 'group' - the people running this group were, how can I say, not very nice people (I will leave it there). In was MD and reported to the group board of directors.
We did very well, made money and everyone was happy, then some of the decisions being made by them reflected very badly on our business but was it their fault? no, it was all mine. So, one day I went into the office as normal, called into the board room and was told that I was to go home, hand over my keys, would be on full pay whilst a full investigation had taken place. I was not under any circumstances allowed to have any contact with any staff members and clients. I asked how long would this take and was told, it will take as long as it takes!!
So off I went on garden leave and just sit and wait. Approximately five weeks later I was told to attend a meeting at an off site location. I attended this meeting and was told that I had done nothing wrong, the business not performing was not of my making, was offered a bonus payment, and my job re-instated with a pay increase.
I accepted, we shook hands and I returned to work, all of my staff were pleased that I was back as were our clients. I hated them for putting me through all the worry etc and I had already plotted my revenge. After 8 months, I held all the cards and bought the business from them, happiest day of my life telling them to F*ck right off.
What has this got to do with MC - nothing except, being put on garden leave is not always the end of the road and people do get their jobs back. I like him and would be happy to see him return. |

Having supported the Hoops for close on 60 years there have been many decisions that have left me wondering what is going on - I can forgive Tony F for spunking his and the Premier League bounty as he was only really trying to do his best and got his pants pulled down. I can forgive giving Redknapp the job, I can forgive giving Hughes the job, I get and understand being mugged off by boil face and although it is not a great advert fore the club - I really cannot forgive this complete shit show.
What must the players be thinking or do they even care? Are we missing something? Is he also a snake in the grass, one thing for sure this does not bode well for the future of much loved club. MB was a snake and that was nothing to do with the club - that shit show was on him, this is different, if the manager had a good working relationship with the board etc (or one person) leaving the club at this point would not even be in his head. It is going to be a very tough next few weeks/months. |

Appreciate this in not QPR but sorry to hear about the sad passing of the West Ham midfielder Ronnie Boyce. I knew him and his wife Dawn as they were friends of my parents and I can honestly say he was one of the nicest people I have ever known. Very underrated player.

Ole Gunnar Solskjar did it after scoring a goal for Man U in a European Cup final and basically ended his playing days. Sorry it is utter madness.
Many years ago I badly dislocated my knee playing in a game, no way back for me after that and the pain was off the scale. I cringe every time I see any player do it. |

Please, please please can someone at the club Marti or anyone tell the players to stop sliding on their knees when a goal is scored. Noticed the young lads were also doing it tonight in the cup match. Trust me it will fu*k your knees - just stop it ad stop it now.

The news last night was very emotional, what those poor men went through was god awful. It was made worse for me as my 98 year old mum passed away a couple of weeks ago and yesterday was her funeral. I made reference in my short tribute to her that people of her generation had awful childhoods being evacuated at a young age, apart from their parents and brothers or sisters then joining the army etc.
We owe these hero's big time - total love and respect to all of our older generation. |
