Sorry Ian - Ollie Out

[Cjskinz]

I can completely understand the frustration regarding results, even the most optimistic of us (Pinkie) will agree that at the end of the day the amount of points on the board are not enough. We all know Holloway makes some very strange team selections sometimes, but form and injuries do and should dictate selection ie dropping Washington. Tactics - we know he isn't the best tactician by a country mile. He does have his moments, but I don't think a high quality manager (even in this league) would touch us with a barge pole until the ship has been stabilised.

I would point out however that

1) Many first team players who would make a significant difference to performances are or were injured this season

2) The squad has improved exponentially. For instance, around this time last year we put a feeble attempt in v Newcastle and lost 6-0. This squad would not let that happen.

3) Some fantastic signings have been brought in on next to nothing, and I believe all of them have performed very well. Freeman, Scowen, Baptiste, Wheeler (too early to judge but early signs are promising), Smith (to some extent). Will admit Lua Lua was a strange and unsuccessful signing (again).

4) We have been very unlucky in quite a few of the games, and 99% of the games we haven't lost by an insurmountable goal difference.

5) I for one have not been more excited by QPR in a fair few years than I am now. Although I would like us not to be in these positions where we are chasing the game in the last 10mins it is bloody good entertainment value and I feel an atmosphere coming back to Loftus Road.

6) We aren't already relegated like some predicted and I think there's enough fight and talent in there to end up mid-table, which for this season I am happy with.


I do think there is a lot to be optimistic about when looking at things in context.

Known for only getting 2 good seasons out of sides. I'd take that right now.

Hollowhead can't get 2 good months out of a team.

Not a fan of either as a manager mate. But at least I like Ollie as a human being. Pardew is just a turd!

Pinkie's definitely no troll IMO. He's just a very vociferous optimist who probably feels the need to behave that way due to being so outnumbered on here (especially on threads like this)!

Two very valid points, I`ll give you that

[Ginger Ninja]

Not trolling just appears a lot on this site because he is Ollies only supporter no matter what. Has to answer anyone who criticises St Ollie in any way.

Or he's counteracting the ridiculous Ollie Out stuff that happens the minute we go on a bad run...

How is that trolling?

I'm baffled.

[QPRHoop]

Do you seriously think they will win any of those games?



I got questioned and told it's easy with hindsight last season because I didn't post my predictions on here for the 6 game losing streak towards the end of the season, even though I told some people that's what I thought was going to happen, so I am posting them now.

As you can tell I don't have any faith in Ollie.

Sunderland can go either way, but I think they improve and McGeady will score again for them against QPR.

It's the QPR way to help those in need of a win. Just ask Swindon way back in the 90s. like Bolton,
they hadn't won all season until QPR paid them a visit.

QPR have never won at Forest and I don't see that changing this season either.

Wolves at home is often a tricky game to predict, but they won last season and are actually a lot better this time around.

Sheffield Utd are a well drilled team, but QPR can beat them if Ollie gets his team selection and tactics right, but will he still persist with Mackie and Washington up front and Pawel as a wing back?

Villa, I think they got off to a slow start, but have a lot of good players in their squad and a midfield that is better than QPR's (Hourihane Snodgrass Whelan) with a forward line to punish what could still be a makeshift QPR defence . Not to mention that they have arguably the best manager for this league.

Yes I do think we will win at least 1 of those games.

Pinkie, as much as some of the negative posts annoy me, I understand that they are as valid as the postive ones.
Forums are about different points of view, without conflict the discussion would become mute.

[Pinkie]

To be fair Shania, if Pinkie needs to take a break because he's positivity is trolling, then shouldn't the handful of posters who are constantly posting negative posts also be classed as trolls?
Personally I feel both sides are valid.

Id have you as right there fraggy, ill take a break and try not to respond anymore can understand it can be annoying for everyone else

[Shepherds Mush]

Sunderland a, Bolton a, Wolves h, Sheffield Utd h, Forest a, Villa h.

I will give my predictions now.

L Sunderland will nick a win, L will give Bolton their 1st win , Wolves are on form L, Might sneak a draw D, QPR never win at Forest L, Villa are also on form and like playing at QPR L,

Perhaps the better question for you then is when do you think QPR will win again?
