Match Day Thread QPR v Huddersfield

Fantastic!

 

Home form is a worry, still away at Birmingham next week who are on a worse run of form than us, only 1 win in 12............so we all know what will happen. Right?

 

Norwich thump Forest 5-1, would be nice if just once in a while we could do the same.

 

Despite the our loss, given the other results down at the bottom, status quo maintained.

Now of course if we could have won today, we would have leap-frogged Forest.

 

Exactly, we are so obilging in asisting other teams to end their poor runs.

 

......or to any other team

 

The 2nd half radio commentary was very exciting. It seems we played very well.

It is just a pity that we did not play like that in the 1at half.

It seems that we could have even won 3:2, we deserved the draw,, but we lost.

Just about sums up a life of supporting the R's.

Despite the result, have a great weekend!

Nahki Wells scores his ninth goal of the season for Huddersfield Town

Huddersfield Town held off a second-half fightback from struggling QPR to record their fifth straight victory.

Nahki Wells pulled the ball back for Izzy Brown to sidefoot a volley home to put the Terriers ahead before Wells himself drove in the second.

Luke Freeman capitalised when the visitors failed to clear their lines to net his first Rangers goal.

The R's pressed but could not beat keeper Danny Ward, who a produced a stunning save to deny Matt Smith.

And only 14K, Saturday 3pm and not on the box. I better go get a beer.

 

Couldn't be arsed myself. Was in London for work this morning too. That Wigan game on the horizon is a big one.

 

Do all ST holders get totalled up in the attendance?
Me and at least 4 others couldn't make it today and wondered if we are included in the figures

 

Dominated most of 2nd half & looked good, Didn't get run of the bar in there area, should have had pen with that handball, ref gave us a pen & then over ruled by linesman for offside but didn't see much in that, 2 sloppy first goals cost us dear, liked look of freeman when he came on & very attacking midfielder.

 

Highlights for those who want them...

 

Just got back
Smith deliveed more nod downs in 90 mins than Poulter did all season
New boys generally look like upgrades
Thought Ned was very very solid even when all around him were crumbling first half
Pavel and manning have lost a lot of form last 2 / 3 games
I reckon we will start scoring a few more now
2nd half we created a lot
Thought Huddersfield were the best team we,ve seen this season

 

Phung phí cơ hội + hàng thủ tệ hại = thất bại!

Arsenal do, 60,000 every game even when you can see a few thousand empty seats for many of their games. The way things are going we'll have a hard job shifting season tickets especially in League One...

Squandered opportunities lousy defense + = fail!

 

Thought Ned was very dodgy today & his fault for first goal.

 

Newcastle also helped us today persevering 1-0 at Wolves.

 

Just back
A game of two halves. The first we were slow, second to the ball and they were far the better team in all departments. No37 Brown was class and ran the show for them with Wells always looking for a goal. They could have scored two goals in the first minute.

The second half was better for us once Hollow made the change( which he needed to as Clappy and Bidwell were shocking). The new boys brought life to the team. After Freeman's goal, Huddersfield seemed to fall to bits and we should have capitalized. Maybe a pen when Smith was pulled down but gave offside, however, it was a clear penalty for the handball. The ref fell to bits as well and was giving stupid cards out.

I thought Smith played well (wins headers) and once he and DC get to know each other they should start scoring.
Perch for me was at fault for a goal and I am beginning to think he is a weak link. Nervous Ned was okay but still frightens the life out of me at times.

I come away not happy and not sad as we did okay in the second half. Hollow is just doing enough for me not to complain. We won't go up under him because his teams are too inconsistent. I think the difference today was that Huddersfield have a decent tactical manager whereas we have Hollow.

Good to catch up with Tooting, Mouse and the Bracknell clan before the game.
