Re: MATCHWATCH : Queens Park Rangers (a)

Went down for this one & have to say it was a great game to watch…high tempo, end to end, gritty, bite between the fans, some cracking tackles. We have a team of fighters & more than matched them for large periods, although on balance they prob edged it. It was all about the midfield. They b...

Re: Opposition fans back from the game

The willy-waving about attendances is mainly from the clubs who like to think of themselves as big clubs, but aren't. Genuinely big clubs compare themselves against the other big clubs. Agree to a certain extent, but there are several clubs who are now pulling in at least double the numbers we are,...

Re: QPR (A) tickets

Unpopular opinion…but has anyone thought maybe we price our tickets too low?

It’s not exactly led to an increase in home attendances, and encourages higher away attendances.

Plus, it’s not financially savvy

Re: QPR (A) tickets

The problem, as always, with high ticket prices like this is that people complain but then still pay them. The only way, outside legislation or a league wide agreement such as the 30 quid PL deal, to have prices lowered is for fans as a whole to stay away from games where they are charged over a ce...

Re: Injury watch 2022/23

Any apology from the people who poo pooed me saying the preseason injuries were showing the problem hadn't gone away? What are we operating at now? About one injury a week since the start of pre-season, on average? Anyone want to claim that’s normal? It is not normal But isn’t it a symptom of our r...

Re: Injury watch 2022/23

I'm totally fed up with Joao - he seems to be made of glass. What was the point of signing up Dann - he has hardly played for us whereas Morrison at least made the fielld. Do we have too many crocked older guys ? Not good We basically have 3 injury-prone forwards in Joao, Long & Meite. You have...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Blackpool (a)

Have to say I’m disappointed the summer break has ended. Was enjoyable not having lost for a few months! Predicted a 1-0 loss & that’s exactly what happened. Too early to judge but we know this is going to be a dogfight of a season so it’s hardly surprising. Fully fit squad is a priority & w...

Re: Freebies

We are now linked with Victor Adeboyejo and Jay Fulton. Jay Fulton I'll take but defo not the guy who was at Barnsley last season. He's awful and wouldn't want any players from there right now. Awful? Have you seen him play? Not a dig, just wondering where your view is coming from. Andy Yiadom came...

We haven't been able to sign players for contracts of more than one season, from outside the club. Not, for more than one season, we haven't been able to sign players from outside the club. In response to Notts Royal, last season different restrictions apply. This season we are yet to sign a player...

Re: Out of Contract 2022

Lots of cry-babies on Twitter pulling out the loyalty card. Think about it from Rino, Laurent & Swift’s positions - can’t have enjoyed being part of a club with a losing mentality for several seasons, they’re entering their prime years & will want a shot at promotion. All 3 of those clubs h...

Re: Out of Contract 2022

I'm really surprised at the ambivalence on here from some about losing Rino. He works hard, brings energy, bursts forward, has a willingness to tackle and to get the ball and move it on and has been sacrificed to play in many different positions. He may never be a 'star man', but he's always consis...

Re: Out of Contract 2022

Personally think Rino would be a big loss. Been a massive fan of his, love his energy & is a solid 7/10 performer.

Maybe some of that is fan bias but I personally think it’s another big loss for us

Re: Freebies

We got ourselves into this situation, not them. I did think it was a bit strange when we were originally placed under our soft transfer embargo that we went and spent nearly £15m on a bunch of new signings within a matter of days, but again, that's on the club's head more than the EFL's. If anythin...

Re: Freebies

This stuff with the EFL is a joke now. They are trying to get us relegated despite us co-operating with them on getting back within the profit and sustainability guidelines. It shouldn't matter what we do in regards to incomings and outgoing players and fees as long as we stick to the wage bill and...

Re: George Puscas leaving?

The problem is Ince is unlikely to start with two upfront. If he does then Puscas and Joao will do a good job.....but it will come at a cost elsewhere. But in the loss of Swift & Laurent, we are now significantly weaker in a 3-man central midfield, so maybe the time to change formation as the s...

Re: Baba Rahman

Whenever I’ve seen him play, he looks like someone who knows he’s too good for that level & is just coasting, happy to not really achieve much in his career. Not sure he’s the sought we want for another relegation scrap. If the cb area was solid enough I wouldn’t be too against it, but it’s shit...

Re: Freebies

Why would anyone spend £10m on a striker who spends 50% of the season on the treatment table & another 25% being completely ineffective. Granted the remaining 25% he is shit hot and bangs the goals in, but for that price surely clubs would be looking for a better outcome

Re: Rival Watch

Well this sucks. Lost my local away game. Derby, Pboro & Barnsley were nearby too. Loads of travelling for the ding-based fans too, having lost the local games down there. Going to be a long slog of a season! Rotherham are up which takes the sting away from Barnsley slightly. Still going to be ...
