So the bombs gone off!

[Pinkie]

Okay I'm going to try and make this clear as possible

No one of any decent caliber wanted the job. Why would they?

A chairman who is incredibly naive (but improving) and due to others has wasted £250m.
A Director of Finance who is a novice (but improving).
Lee Hoos cutting costs all over the place making budget for pretty much everything minimal (but this is how a club like us should be run)
Many failed managers
A playing squad that was extremely low on confidence, lacking creativity
A fan base with this false sense of entitlement that we should be Premier League and spending millions and millions on players STILL even after everything we've been through in the last few years

Here we are, mid table after a few energized performances and the squad were clearly not fit enough to maintain that level. Bore draws, fans booing, manager trying to give our players a few days off so he can go and get money for making a speech.

In comes Mr Holloway, a man who rebuilt this club from the brink of not existing. A man who has a cushy job at Sky. Why on Earth would he want to come to QPR and risk his good status with the fans? Why would ANY manager come here with minimal transfer budget against teams like Villa and Newcastle spending mega money?

Because he loves the club, as much as you or I.
If you thought you could do some good for the club, would you not do it?
I'm not denying I find his interviews incredibly irritating, and I'm not saying I've forgotten him being too complacent at the end of the season. Nor have i forgot the fantastic run before that, or how no one was complaining about "hoof ball" when we were winning.

If you’re calling yourself a supporter, start supporting. We’ve had enough negativity at the club to last a lifetime.

Top post!

You should be able to moan on a message board though mate it's free speech and opinion. You can't stop people from moaning if they want to.

If you don't like it and it annoys you that much then just ignore the people that do and concentrate on the people who post positively.

The lack of consistency is what annoys people. I think a lot of people on here suffer from memory loss or senility.

saying that the squad is poor, the manager does not have a clue, and a relegation battle is almost inevitable, could be seen as being realistic and not moaning.

I'm not saying it's not realistic! Not once said that! I've said many times IH interviews annoy the hell out of me.

Just find it difficult to accept that QPR supporters and the players and the managers used to face relegation scraps together, always supporting, no matter what.

Now it's all changed and we just want rid of a manager after a few months or a player has a couple of poor games and we make him a scapegoat automatically. George Kulcsar never got the treatment Ned has lol

Anyway, I'm off, enjoy your weekends and watch Polter bang in a hattrick!

So obvious that was all it was ever about. It's a typical Ollie remark.

Some on here can't or won't see the situation we are in, apparently Sylla and others have had enough and looking to leave so will be a interesting next few weeks. Pointless discussing Holloway with some as they are either related or obsessed, but reality is he won't be here beyond November.

Actually feel at bit sorry for him as clearly not the right appointment and was only made to appease the fans and for the majority even that isn't working anymore as people see through his jokes and ranting!

And who says some cant see the situation we`re in ricky?! so what would you really like, ollie to hand in the towell and have a defeatist attitude like most of you?! yes that would do us the world of good lol

[Cjskinz]

Just ignore them mate, half the time they're fishing for a bite.

haha nah it's all good.

Just really want Holloway to prove people wrong. Not saying he will, but i want him to! I'm sure some people do want him to prove them wrong, but others just want him to fail for the sake of it

[knocker]

Yeah I know was probably a bit harsh that! Just people moan at me (and others) for trying to be positive. You should never be moaned at for trying to be positive...

Sorry mate but Holloway is not a fan, just keen to get a pay check when no one else wanted him, plenty would have taken the job but powers that be wanted people like you onside. Trouble is people who know what they are doing should be making football decisions, not ones to keep fans happy because everything else including spending millions has failed

People like me on side? What does that even mean? If you're referring to someone who has had a season ticket for 23 years (I'm 26 btw), my Dad having one for 54 years and my Grandad for god knows how long before him, wanting to support their club through thicken and thin then yeah that's me

It's not about being a happy clapper or not seeing Holloways or anyone elses flaws, its about supporting your damn club. I'm sure it will all end in tears, it always does in football, but Holloway is here and for now he's not going anywhere. So whilst he's here, i'm supporting him,

You can keep moaning about it on message boards or you could try and be positive and support your club and see what happens! Just a thought

I think we have no other option to get on with where we are and Ollie now.

I would of preferred a younger kind of manager from the lower league's, someone who is the next Rowett or something and I'd be interested to know the reasons why we didn't take another punt on a JFH type from League 1 or 2. Any other manager is as much of a risk as Ollie coming back trying to recreate the past.

We are where we are though and we have to accept it.
