    Midfield of Barton, Derry, Faurlin and Mackie.........

    I'm sorry. I said to the lads in the pub before the game when I heard that midfield against a side we had to win at home. No width and stinking of negativity.


    I go home and away every week and know how these players are performing.

    Barton - just about in the side on reputation and no other option.

    Faurlin - one of the shining lights this season. A pleasure to watch although can make mistakes at times, but I accept that.

    Derry- just going backwards and the Prem is a step too far for him.

    Mackie - a Premiership Gareth Ainsworth. He has his song when he scores, but what does he do in 90 mins of football. I nearly had a heart attack when I saw his 'dad' sub him at half time.


    That midfield was not going to win us a Premiership game. No width and no pace. SWP had his best game on Sat at Arsenal and deserved to start today ahead of 'Golden Boy' in his proper position on the right.

    If you watch our midfield, unlike other Prem teams they never bust a gut to support our strikers hence why we never score more than one a game. As soon as Norwich equalised I knew we wouldn't win.

    Under Holloway he had his favourites and we went down and I'm afraid the same is happening now. Warnock is a very stubborn manager. He is playing certain players because he doesn't liked to be proved right. Ceratin players can't play together in the midfield and once again today showed why.

    IF we go down, which I expect we will do, it will be because of one thing and that is Warnock's tactics.

    But I'll be there at places like Burnley etc. next season. A lot of fans there today won't be.
    First game: Arsenal vs Queen's Park Rangers at Highbury, Saturday 17th November 1984.

      Under Holloway we didn't have the money for new players, under Neil we do so keep the faith!

        Look at Holloway's favourites who took us down like BigNOT etc.

        He would always pick people like Palmer and Gallen in games when they were having stinkers. A manager being stubborn like Warnock.

        We are going down I am afraid to say. I'll be there at every game because I love the Rangers, but I am sad to say we are not good enough for this league and next season we'll be off to places like Barnsley again etc.

          Holloway never took us down - he inherited a joke of a team with a joke of an attitude.. that team was always getting relegated from div 1.

            You can't blame our relegation to League One on Ian Holloway. The team was absolutely appalling (Ready, Kiwomya, Morrow etc)...the current squad looks like Barcelona in comparison.

              We only got relegated from the Championship. We didn't get relegated from League One.

              Remember how poor Bignot's game was at Burnley they year we went down?

              One of the worst games I have ever seen from a professional footballer of our club.

                  Other teams would walk through that midfield not a tackle in it
