    Thanks for that link Dave.

    A lot of positives from that interview with a genuine passion to do well. Also interesting to hear that his no.2 Dobson is a former season ticket holder, two club loyalists which is better than we could have hoped for.

    I'm slightly excited at the prospect of Wild Thing back at Loftus Road.

    Gareth Ainsworth's blue & white army!!!

    Going to LR had become a bit a of a chore, but I'm really looking forward to Saturday now.

    I think we'll see a bit more of Armstrong under Ainsworth.

    If we see a bit more Armstrong, l’ll be over the moon.
    Hope we see the opposition goal mouth a bit more too!

    Our current analyst jumped ship a week or so ago and went to West Ham... no I can't believe our analyst could ever get another job after the obvious lack of opposition analysis that we have...but apparently we were without an analyst.

    Really looked as though Critchley reign was falling apart.

    "Former Queens Park Rangers performance analyst Bartosz Andryszak has announced he has moved across London to join West Ham United's coaching staff. Andryszak joins after more than a decade at Loftus Road.....6 days ago"

    This is a new start...let's gets some wins under our belt...starting Saturday

    Can't quite get over 11 years at Wycombe and Ainsworth never spent a single penny on transfer fees. That's incredible. No wonder the board wanted him!!!

    Clive's synopsis is right on..we are up s*** creek without a paddle. But Gareths interview made me smile and gave me hope.

    I will freely admit I didn't want Gareth appointed, a mixture of fear for him and his legendhood (!) and a desire to go back to the heights of Warburton reign.

    But, being easily swayed, I am now excited by Gareths interview. I hope he can convince the rabble we once called our team to knuckle down and get the required points. You Rrrrs

    I also really enjoyed the interview.

    I do not know what to expect, but I really wish him well.

    I am sure that LR will be ROCKING on Saturday. It is ironical, possibly even fate, that we will be facing Blackburn his boyhood club in his first game.

    I have no idea who is injured, sulky, grumpy or simply has “downed tools”.

    But I personally would classify Armstrong as a “good egg” so if unavailable, I guess he is injured?

    It’s a pity he couldn’t bring the Wycombe team with him and send our shower the other way

    I'm hoping he has a strong knowledge of the lower leagues and players he thinks may have a bright future.

    I'm sure he does. If what has been said is true and that he hasn't spent any money at all for god knows how many years it makes even more impressive their performance over the last 5-6 years. Hopefully that skill will continue as he looks for better quality players who will command a decent fee. That's the main area where Warnock failed when he was eventually given the key to the coffers in that last week of the transfer window. Didn't have enough experience of judging the true value of tried and trusted Premier League donkeys

    That's quite something to see in this day and age. Hat's off to Wycombe
