jrperry1882 that was me at 29 minutes, great spot! I was trying in vain to check the Reading Wigan score whilst Sam Field was injured. My little boy is gutted because he sat down whilst there was a break in play (we had to stand the whole match so he was stood on his seat to see and was getting sore legs) so you can't really see him so he lost out on 5 seconds of 'fame'!

Still not heard back from daveb as to whether it was HIM that I saw in the QPR faithful!

I’ll be honest
I never thought we would stay up

I do agree Single...really thought we were goners

I may be one of the few supporters who thought Greece were mazing the year they won the Euros, probably helps that my wife is half Greek...anyway for my part I want us to win games and I want us to play as a team...beyond that I'm not too fussed about style.

Maybe my mind is playing tricks on me but how expansive was the QPR team that NW got promoted...I feel like it was a very defensive solid team that was made to look amazing because of Tarrabt?

Didn't we win loads of games 1 - 0 (I'll look it up)

My point is we only need one, possibly 2, exciting forward players for this style of football to be quite exciting...I thought the lack of possession yesterday was due to our forward players giving it away needlessly.

Give me a solid and impenetrable team with one flair player next season, followed by one nil wins and promotion and I'll be very happy thank you

That Warnock team won a lot of games by 2/3 goals, they were well organised but were very exciting going forward. Not just adel but had Ephraim, Mackie, Routledge, Faurlin a lot of creative players plus Kyle Walker. I'm not sure we're gonna see that under Ainsworth and wouldn't expect it as we'll have a lot less money to spend than we did that season

That was indeed a well-rounded and attack-based side daveb under Warnock, and I doubt we will see that under Ainsworth for two reason: The club does not have the money to buy the few 'gems' that make a difference, and (as you mentioned in another post) it does not seem that Ainsworth wants to play like that. I guess this time next season we will be much wiser in that regard, as well as much older following QPR!

LOL... I think next time I might check the stats before posting... Clearly I memory is for shit

I guess what I remember is the defense and Derry being immense... I think (so probably wrong) Kenny was our player of the year?

My overall point holds I think... To get out of this division you have to have a rock solid defense and we haven't had much of that over the past few years... And you have to believe that will change under Ainsworth
