QPR v Stoke 17Sep22 0-0 46mins 8th/14pts

Whilst Amos and JCS are now back training I doubt they would be risked from the start so at best they might get a place on the bench.

We know that Dickie and Richards are out injured so unless we have some injuries or players showing tiredness after the Millwall game I reckon Beale will stick with the team who started that game.

The important one is Paal. He has not only proven himself (my MotM against Millwall), but he also has no real understudy....

Going to be a good game, I think. I am, for a change, in Block B, Row X - so South Africa stand, and looking forward to it!

Not sure why we make such heavy weather with teams like Stoke?

Stoke are tidier than us and probably also better organised. It is not just Roberts who is struggling, so is Willock. Realistically that only leaves Chair to soldier the burden. Behind them it appears as if Johansen is still the one supporting the attacks, whilst Dozzell & Field are doing the same for defence.
Other than the performance of those mentioned, the other problem is not pushing forward to contain their Backs and open up the midfield more.
Expect Dykes soon....
