  1. I spent most of the afternoon hoping Millwall, QPR, and Stoke would do us a favour and lose, I should have known better after all these years.
  2. We are 6 points clear, and have you seen our upcoming fixtures?
  3. I don't think the other results below us could have been much worse for us today, not a good day to lose at home.
  4. If you had said to me after we beat Southampton 3-1 that we would be looking over our shoulders now I would not have believed you. I'm not confident especially when I see our upcoming fixtures it would be just like us wouldn't it?
  5. Didn't Cotterill do a similar thing with the bench, and we all know how that turned out.
  6. Unless the bottom 3 start playing like Man City we are definitely NOT in a relegation battle ....... this season. though having just looked at the table if Stoke win today we will be only 6 points from the bottom 3 and with the fixtures we have coming up and City being City well who knows.
  7. But we were still mid-table when he was sacked 13th, though the omens weren't good. It's pure speculation to say we would have gone down if we had not appointed NP though.
  8. In your opinion, the truth though is we will never know.
  9. For all the excuses that get trotted out like getting rid of the deadwood, cutting the wage bill etc he wasn't exactly a roaring success was he, I must admit the way some go on on here you would have thought we had been a fast-raiding attractive to watch side that was going places when he was with us when in fact his stats were quite poor, yes there were some mitigating circumstances but I somehow expected more from him, but even so I find the OP a bit cringy, I mean OUR Nige.
  10. It's with a heavy heart I have to announce one of footballs great showmen and entertainers from the 1970s Stan Bowles has died aged 75 from Alzheimer's, for those too young to remember him he was a true entertainer a cocky flamboyant player who sometimes did things that made it worth the admission price alone. RIP Stan. Stan Bowles: Former England and QPR forward dies aged 75 - BBC Sport
  11. No way on this earth ( this season) as for the next well the jury is out.
  12. I could have sworn I heard Illia's Chairs name mentioned for QPR that can't be right, can it?
  13. I wouldn't like to have to limbo under that bar :laugh:.
  14. A typical game where one team have a lot more to play for, it's the travelling fans I feel sorry for.
  15. Could have been worse could have been egg and cress :laugh:.
  16. Sometimes though player's hamstrings go when they have been playing nearly the whole game I'm not sure I buy the warming-up theory.
  17. But Pearson was given 3 years, not just the 18 games at the end. I would hope we have learned that chopping and changing managers does not usually work and it's not as if we need to panic as barring an unlikely set of results we are safe this season, perhaps if we were in relegation trouble your suggestion would carry more merit.
  18. What are you alluding to? that we somehow let him slip through our fingers?
  19. I still think we should reserve judgment, 20 odd games are a bit soon to decide on his future.
  20. We did not play well on Saturday nobody could argue against that, but we were very good against West Ham and Nottingham Forest had great results against Middlesboro and outplayed Southampton, so what does that say? well, we all know that on our day we are a match for most teams in this league but have too many off days just like under Pearson really. Talk of another change of manager is madness look I've been disappointed as well but come on we're not Watford. where the manager of the month means exactly that.

    Mbude.

    I do remember the, we would have been better off with Benny from Crossroads gags :laugh:.
  22. No, I didn't, I still think it is a bit brave to call yourself Dire though, let's hope he turns out not to be.
