How did we manage a draw, I didn't think we knew where the goal was. Disappointed that so many of our fans left before the end of the game.

Mental last 4 minutes. 2-0 down on 90 minutes, somehow we draw 2-2. Undeserved draw. One man and his dog still in the ground to see it.
Smith with a goal and an assist.

Yes Smith coming on was the game-changer as it disrupted their well-organised defence that Sylla and Washington could not penetrate. A good substitution, as was bringing on Wszolek for a tiring Cousins, but Lualua for Mackie? I would have tried Wheeler always in preference to Lualua as he cannot hold onto possession. He compounded that problem tonight by not marking properly and allowing his player to cross for the second goal. When will Ollie give up on him.....!?

Bottom line: We were lucky to snatch a draw but full credit to the side for not giving up. Still 16th but now 22 points.

We were poor tonight. The draw covers that up. We did not deserve it.

I am extremely disappointed with our performance. There was not a lot to like. I actually didn't see that much fighting spirit, we just pumped balls into the box in hope and got EXTREMELY lucky.

Holloway is having a go at the fans for leaving, well he needs to have a look at the dire football served up in the first 89 minutes of the game. They left for a reason.

Brentford will feel like they have been robbed but their game management at the end was not good enough.

crazy end to the game

we can not be to critical of the QPR defence, this is not the 2nd or 3rd choice defence line up.

Will take the point, and just hope the team can get something out of the way we thought back, but really a poor game.

We don't have a settled team, the only settled players are Smithies, Freeman, Mas, Scowen ands Bidwell.

we need at least 3 players in Jan - Striker and 2 defenders I reckon. But as we know we have no cash.

Defensive issues don't help but it was a very poor standard of football from QPR.

The subs meant we had no shape and Brentford were more than comfortable then we get 2 set pieces and get out of jail. So, so lucky. Gives Holloway an excuse now for a poor performance overall.

Bringing on Smith is a real cop out and why did Lua Lua come on over Wheeler?

The commentator even said 'Brentford won when they weren't even in top gear' when it was 2-0. Of course they didn't end up winning but they deserved to.

It was great to see the lads fight right to the end but I totally agree that overall it was a really poor performance. The sooner we let Lua Lua go back to Brighton the better because he just doesn' like tracking back and leaves an already dodgy defence even more exposed.

I think the draw is fair, there was nothing between the sides in the first half

We could’ve easily taken the lead before their opener as well as denied a blatant penalty. Yes we were very lucky to get that point but I’d say we were worthy of it

I am a QPR fan for life, sometimes happily!

Yes a great comeback
But we were crap most of the game and Ollie having a dig at fans going early,Ian we couldn't score in an all female nightclub
Matt smith is a huge player and our only option is to lump it up to him and hit and hope
The lads tried to the end and you can't fault them for that but we got to sort things out,baptiste is static and costing us goals,I wish we could play like Brentford very neat and tidy side,we look unbalanced and we can't create any chances at all during normal time
It doesn't mask even after this result the fans are not happy with what we are serving up,our strikers just can't score the way we are playing and I still am resigned that we will lose our next away game as we don't have any goals to threaten the opposition and a injury hit back 4
We have a little breathing space from bottom 3 but I can see us slipping nearer to it,if we continue to play like we are

First half was even but second half they were on top for me. They took their foot off the gas, thought it was won and couldn't deal with Smith.

Nothing to enjoy in our performance for me.

I am not happy to grab draws by playing long ball. We should be far better than that. It's awful to watch.

Northwest I share your views mate
ollie probably making out it was his game changing tactics that got us a draw in the end
Were just lucky to have a 6 foot 4 forward to lump the ball up to when were desperate
The game was lost and id of got the next train home before the game ended if I was there too
Brentford must be gutted and i understand why they are
Holloway will start saying this is the start of our revival but Luke freeman has probably saved him his job for now

Well let’s look at it another way then, we certainly showed real character to fight back like that!

However tonight does bring up one negative that’s been mentioned often this season, why do we always wait until the 90th minute onwards to start playing well and getting goals? Exactly the same as Fulham, but at least we got the draw tonight

It is easy to be Critical, but what do you expect with Baptiste. He was a non contract signing, there was a reason why he had no contract.
All of the sudden he is now first choice and expected to lead a defence of him, Robinson (who is playing out of his socks) and Cousins. Comeone, that give them a break.

Now the strikers, we have big issues, but firstly we are swapping them each game. We need a settled strike force. So they can play of each other, and learn each others game

If The strikers scored more often
Our makeshift defence wouldn't be under so much pressure
Why don't we just play longball all the time,not pretty but as it proved tonight we got two goals in 2 mins against a well organised defence

Think the general feeling is although we made a remarkable comeback
We still are as bad if not worse than we were playing football for 90 mins against a very average Brentford side
We make teams look good when they are not,how the hell that team beat wolves who are running away with the league I'll never know
Yes Ollie you have a right to moan but you cant use a bit of luck to rub it in our faces the fans that went home early
They turn up in all weathers on a working day night to watch our team get outplayed and simply fall apart at times
I was at home watching ant and Dec on itv as id had enough of it
Ian (I'm a manager get me out of here)
Yes he has limited funds and injuries but it's your lack of addressing weak areas in the summer thats done us
Scowen and freeman very good finds but come on Lua Lua and Washington who should of been sold as he's very ineffective and simply doesn't score goals
