    That's was a good move. Several times though we did play far too many triangles in the middle (even in our own half). Some of these inevitably broke down, so why not play the odd forward ball and risk losing possession but possibly creating a chance?? A tad too clever, clever at times.

      Tend to agree we do overplay on the edge of the box sometimes and I have my heart in my mouth

        When we do it in front of our box we're so good- as are Hill and Dunne- I'm not worried that we'll concede, but that we're shilly shalleying about when we ought be getting forward and looking for a goal....

            I think the great thing emerging is that teams cannot play their conventional game against us...... above and beyond a normal tactical adjustment. They go into the game thinking that they're gonna get smashed and then end up playing all over the place.

            Sun Tzu would approve........

              Exactly. Sometimes we don't give ourselves enough credit.

                Agree Stainrod.....I think i almost know how Man Utd fans feel....The best squad/team in the division imo...we're the team to beat...everybody hates us..

                  Funny you mention Man U. My brother actually counts them as his first team (even though he has seen us a billion times more and has been a season ticket holder here over many years). With the Rs he knows we will end up losing a lot of games. And although that really upsets him - because secretly I think he loves us much more ... - when Man Utd lose its like he just can't understand it. Its like when your internet connection fails, he just thinks "that's weird, oh well, it will fix itself shortly." Well lately he has seen Man U behave more like a normal football teams losing matches, and the good old superhoops winning every week like a well-oiled machine. I'm not crowing - honest

                      was away from all media etc today on family business and only got to tune into the match thread on here twice for a cple of seconds-luckily after we had scored both times. just wondered....
                      how did the front line,midfield,defense play?
                      motm?
                      subs etc?
                      atmosphere?
                      cheers.

                        I thought the atmosphere was a touch subdued today, no? Crowd seems to put in a workmanlike performance, but we don't go crazy......

                            Quote from a Boro fan

                            "QPR played us very well and stopped most things as I said I am glad that they decided to rest in the second half"

                              Should of put it bed at 3 -nil that was the very disappointed bit.

                                Lovely game to watch, best this season for me.
                                If that team had of had time to gel, and we moved into second gear, boro would of gotten a right tonking.
