    Not disappointed today, expected nothing else - a worse result if I'm honest. There are games coming up that we ought to win to stay safe. It's all about how we do in those.

      But there were 5 defenders starting the match, so that would suggest a 3-5-2 again.

      As usual, he starts with the same system, QPR go behind and later on he changes the formation and QPR perform better, but again too much, too little, too late.

      I know most of us expected a loss from this game, but in my case that is because I could guess the formation and to some extent the team that would be selected, not to mention the appalling away record they have. Had he started with the 2nd half line-up, QPR might just have proved us wrong.

        True, but it is getting boring blaming the manager.

          Well we all know that Washington is not good enough, yet the manager you refuse to blame, keeps on selecting him almost every f,,,,,ing game.

And as Hits said earlier, the reason people predicted a relegation battle was because Holloway’s our manager.
            And also irrespective of results do people really think that this guy is a man who can build us up to better things?!

            You are absolutely correct.

            how on earth anyone can think that such a record is decent is beyond belief.

              Maybe true with hindsight mate. Would never have happened though. Things were getting very nasty towards the end of Ramsey's tenure. Blame TF to be honest, raised expectations and delivered utter sh*te!
              I think people have forgotten how appalling QPR were at defending under Ramsey - they were conceding 2 or more practically every match. If he had stayed on much longer QPR would probably have been in a relegation scrap, becuase they were on the slide, hence the reason they brought in Warnock to help him out.

                In context to what he is dealing with regarding FFP it could be argued he is. I'm not a great fan of his but if he keeps us up this season we could replace him and argue he'd not done a bad job.

                  They totally rode their luck in that game. We could easily have got a draw in our game against much tougher opposition.

                          I don't even understand what a 3-5-1-1 is. How do you fit 6 players into the midfield?

                            Ask Ollie. Freeman playing behind Washington. Robinson apparently between Scowen and Cousins. Wszolek and Bidwell wing backs. But, hey, we lost gloriously having thrown away the first half. Again.

                              Bloody stupid mate.

                              He should have just left Bidwell on the bench and played a 4-5-1. He's always got to try to be clever.
