Just go Don’t care if it’s too late in the season Don’t want to go to league one with you It was coming with all our issues this season We’ve won one poxy game and got 4 points this year only 43 points won’t be enough to stay up Tonight has put us in a relegation battle now We should be able to beat at home a team that hasn’t won away in fact in 2 seasons Well done Rotherham for breaking your bad run thanks to us
Sack him get Holloway for rest of season We need 2 wins only if not then I want to go down with McClaren gone as far as he can possibly go

You won't be the only person saying 'McClaren out' and the pressure he is now under is deserved.
McClaren is clearly doing something wrong but we are in a similar position every season.
The players just aren't good enough. I don't really see what changing manager would do. We have ups and down, change the manager and ultimately we still end up 16th to 18th.
A new manager would only have the same players to work with and despite a strong period earlier this season clearly they are lacking.
I still don't buy that we are in a relegation battle as we will pick up some points before the end of the season. It is just hard to fathom how we have gone from 2 points outside the play offs to 1 win in 13 games and losing to a Rotherham side who haven't won away for 43 games. Frustrating.
Northwest with the up most respect mate Where’s the next win coming from Can’t see it with how we are playing very soon We have good enough players to win games,yes they are very average but so do lots of other teams in our league We had a chance to silence the relegation worry but we are only 7 points clear when we could of been 13 points clear

I don't disagree that McClaren is having a poor run and sitting through that match tonight was painful. You won't be the only person calling for his head either.
HOWEVER
It's easy to say 'manager out' but this is a bigger issue at QPR right now.
We have no parachute payments next season, we are going to lose some key senior players, we could have to sell Freeman and Luongo.
How is a new manager meant to make us any better?
It's like ripping up a piece of A4 paper and passing them to somebody else to fix. No matter what they try the best they can do is create another piece of A4 paper. They can't create a bigger, better A3 piece of paper with the limited pieces they have.
We've tried an untested manager (Ramsey) We've tried an up and coming manager who was in demand at the time (JFH) We've tired the passionate, feel-good manager (Holloway) We've tried a 'coaching' manager (McClaren)
But we still end up 18th.
There is something fundamentally wrong at QPR and changing manager never seems to work for us. We almost need to change the DNA of the club, massive changes are needed from top to bottom.
Throwing a P45 in McClaren's face won't change anything right now.

It’s performances as well as losing I’ve watched a couple of Ipswich games they put in a effort the whole 90 mins and yes they lose but they give what they have We just stop trying and the players don’t have any urgency or belief anymore by the look of it Agree northwest that sacking him won’t change anything maybe but why should the home fans and every other fan put up with what we are seeing at the moment Joke is on us tomorrow as we let Rotherham have a easy win that not one other team has done at home
McClaren is tactically inept but the real problem is the West Ham fan who has constantly mismanaged the club by appointing poor managers and adopting a poor Financial strategy.
If McClaren can’t motivate a team of better players than Rotherham have on paper and who haven’t won away all season then I give up It in my opinion was a must win it’s drew us 6 points closer to the relegation zone
I don't think that McClaren should be sacked. As northwest said what difference would it make.
But in my opinion Holloway should not have been sacked either
Lets look at why McClanen was brought in
Holloway played boring long ball football. The main reason for this was that we played Smith up front, Smith played in 44 games last season and in 36 games with 8 game left this season (not a lot in it)
McClaren was brought in to play and introduce young player to the 1st team
Holloway introduced Othe Chair and Smyth to 1st team football
MCClaren Has introduced Owen and Bettache For a total of 2 sub apperances !
McClaren was also brought in to coach and improve our young players. ( Can someone tell me how he can do this when they are all out on loan to other clubs)
The one thing that has justified McClarens appointment is the playing of Eze in most games this season But even there he has played him too often.
Eze is a big big talent and in some ways reminds me of the greatest player we have ever had (Stan Bowles) but he has lost form a confidence and should have been droped/rested long ago.
We need to have a long team strategy for the club, and If that is with McClanen then great but we need to back him 100% and not sack him and appoint another manager with now idea of what we want from him.
McClaren has publicly declared his aim is 50 points, so that is 6 points more from the remaining games. I think that is achievable and would rather he be stating 53 points as the team's target.
I think as northwest says We’d probably be alright on what we got Rotherham don’t win away apart from us and have nightmare fixtures And Ipswich and Bolton are practically gone already Our 8 point gap and Millwall and reading are in the mix too It would have to be one hell of a run by a bottom 3 team to put us in trouble,but I take nothing for granted We’d of been safe last week if we’d of not lost to Rotherham Simple really all we have to do is match Rotherham’s results and we are safe

No problems this season @singlespeed but there probably will be next season. Losing high-wage players with experience will hurt because we are restricted in what we can spend. The alternatives will largely be ex-Development players and those on free transfers. Some will work but most will not (as is normal) so we will struggle. The club and its supporters need some good news on the training ground and stadium to distract us!
