I've never felt more like starting the Blues Match Thread..
at 09:10 10 Mar 2026

Has Spaceman_P become the Steve Cook of match threads??

Why isn't he being allowed to start threads?

What's really going on behind the scenes?

Je suis Spaceman_P.

Kudos to you - I had to mute the commentary, it was driving me to violence.

Young or not, it's amazing how the players train nearly every day but don't seem to improve (or want to improve)?

It's like they make it as a professional footballer and just decide "I've made it now, that'll do."

True form definitely plays a part - just pointing out the personnel we had for that were arguably better than what lost to Boro.

Madsen is a big miss, but I'd definitely have preferred Cook and Smyth starting.

Agreed.

Despite all the BS off the pitch it's the still players on it who are kicking the ball, they can still make a difference.

Why hasn't Dunne got all the players together and said, sod Nourry/Hoos/Williams/Stephan/injuries etc., let's pull together and finish the season as strongly as we can.

I mean they still get win bonuses, right?

Fair enough - although I think Stephan is fine as manager and would be doing a lot better with his best players available, clearly he's had enough too.

OK fine well let's spin the wheel again.

Although I see no point in doing it at this time in the season. Wait till after the last game.

Yeah but as mentioned above I don't think the squad is actually that bad, it's just been stymied by injuries. Managers tend to have big egos and will think "I can definitely work with that". And if being dictated to by Nourry they'll still think they'll find a solution. And in the end if it doesn't work out they'll get a nice pay out and just claim "oh well that QPR is a total basket case".

Anyway as we know changing the manager is not going to make any fkin difference.

I'm going with our youngest son to Leicester - like you say, quality time, a day out together, a road trip. Just a shame about the football match itself; and if we don't avoid defeat at Birmingham I fear the away end will be especially toxic. Not really sure I want to expose a ten year old to that...

Over and over again. Like a broken record.

Changing the manager makes no difference - look at the people above him!!!!

Yes that Wrexham defeat was a total kick in the balls but then we did go on and beat Coventry.

Back four for Coventry was Dunne Edwards Cook RND.

Of course we did have Madsen too, but it was Hayden and no Varane.

And Smyth for Saito.

Which is why I wonder we don't move to three at the back, just to try and stop the rot?

Bizarre why he's not playing when our defensive record is better when he's in the team.

It can't be another appearance clause in his contract that Nourry doesn't want to activate??

If Kone keeps starting (since we have no other options) it does feel like he'll get injured this week, just to put the tin lid on everything.

I'm sure it's been said elsewhere here but why is Spaceman_P not doing these threads?

(much as it'll make any difference given our current form)

Christ it's like fkin Groundhog Day on here.

I'm just fed up with the same slop week in week out. Nothing is going to change while certain personnel remain in position. All the chickens are coming home to roost.

Bottom line though is it comes down to the players who cross the white line, if they ever felt like pulling their finger out. Even yesterday for the occasional minute where we showed some effort, Boro were there to be got at. It's such a dogshit league, even more so this season. You can beat anyone if you put your minds to it.

I've got tickets for the Leicester game with our youngest but if/when we lose at Birmingham it'll be so toxic there; might just bin it off and pop round the corner to watch Barnet.
