    I'm a neutral, and quite prepared to tell it how I see it. Rangers weren't mediocre at all last night, especially after the first 20 minutes or so. My only feeling about it (in retrospect) is that they lacked some confidence in front of goal - which is why it went to extra time. But they were good for the win.

      Really? I'm quite surprised by that, thought it would be relatively evens. Maybe that's just because we have bigger names in the squad.
      But on the day, it's the football that counts and not the names.
      I do think Brighton made them look better than they are though

        There is not much in it but they said we were 'slight' favourites on talksport this morning.

          He didnt coach much of Kranjcar and Carroll or any of Doyle, Morrison and Benayoun (I'll leave Maiga and Keane out of this).

          He'll have as much of an idea of Harry's tactics as Harry will of his. 50/50 game in my opinion.

            What a stupid thing to say (unless you said it for a reaction) What the hell was mediocre about last nights team and performance??? you need to take a look at yourself Buddy or think twice before posting

              Agree with above, I don't think we looked mediocre at all last night (disregarding the first 20 mins), we looked like a team and thought we controlled the majority of the match

                Not sure anybody has ever coached those two.

                  Exactly right. We're happy to be at Wemberlee tbh. Both sides are ****** good attacking teams. It's a cup final and will be a good one.

                  I've got about as much confidence as a thawed turkey on Christmas Eve.

                        Firstly was massively impressed in mcclaren last night and the way he conducted himself - you cant have nothing but respect for the guy who operates like that.

                        I personally cant see it being an advantage. I think he complimented us numerous times because he knows we are very talented team. Hes said on numerous times through out the year and even when at derby we have the best team in the league. It will just come down to a good old battle on the day. Our advantage is we have a lot of experince in the team which does go a long way and as a qpr fan I hope the occassion gets to the inexperience of the derby players.

                        I personally think it will be a lot like the wigan game. Derby will come out quick and at us and we will need to stand strong to that - if we can keep them out for the first 25 - 30 mins then claw are way into the game I think we can push on over the line.

                          My favourite manager in football apart from our own. Going to feel bad breaking his heart. Well not really that bad.

                            McClaren knows we ball watch, hope Harry don't give Derby time on the ball or we'll be in trouble.
