Proud of my 100% record - well, it's one out of one.
Still, rainbows I'm inclined to pursue so I'll go for a long awaited win and gee'd up by Clives desciption of Norwich's poor form. |  | | |  |

Give me strength! Name me one game, one, where them being on the pitch at the same time has looked even promising! Dykes is done at QPR, ands Armstrong is a hulk of a winger who might score 3-5 goals this season if we're lucky. He just about warrants a place on the bnech right now, but that's it.
In the words of Edwyn Collins, as far as our 'strike force' goes, it's a case of 'rip it up and start again'! |
You can't "rip it up and start again" outside of the transfer window, so in the meantime try to find a solution, they've rarely been on the pitch at the same time so got to be worth a try. |  |

Still on course to go down despite some improvement in how we play.
I could go on for hours about where we are poor but its all been said before for several seasons now.....sigh. |  | | |

That's a fugging ridiculous yellow card by Cook.
Scadalous. |
I don't like any of the "experienced" players Ainsworth bought in except Morgan Fox - Cook and Colback brain dead, just want to pick up stoopid cards and probably cost us more than the other players and Begovic is sooooooo clearly here for his GK school and NOTHING else. He just continues to go through the motions, administering no bollockings despite the crap unfolding in front of him.
...and all the crap on here about Chair - arrrgghhhh! No-one moves in front of him, no-one. The entire "forward" line just stands still, no runs, no movement, no guile. Yes Illy held on too long a few times, but would you really cross when you have Dykes the Lamppost in the middle?
Still, its just opinions, like assholes everyone has one... |  |

You’ve posted a few times on this thread implying that Chair is our best player and our best chance of staying up: he really isn’t and has had a terrible season in the main. Cifuentes has got to work out how to get him playing much better starting with looking up and passing more. |
So many people must have told him that though, yet it still happens. | | | |

Best Post of the night, and sums us up perfectly.
Also QPR apparently stands for Queer Platonic Relationship. Never knew that until Google sent me in the wrong direction! | | | |

Did Dykes go off injured or just not doing much?
It's hard to know for sure from watching the feed. Optimistically I think maybe he does a lot off the ball that isn't evident on-screen. I hope so anyway! |
Not sure he offers anything on the ball or off it. If I’m a centre back in this league and I see I’m up against dykes this week then I’m laughing. Another awful day for him. Would sell up and take what you can get in January but it won’t happen. |  | | |

Right. I've had a few beers, watched John Wick 4 and slightly chilled out a bit.
My takeaway from today is this:
1. We are so much better than we were. We have a shape, we look well-drilled. Fcuk, there might even be a plan!
2. Colback is an utter, utter, UTTER fcuktard. For THIS we got rid of Dom?! Fcuking shoot me.
3. Chair is trying to write the theme tune, sing the theme tune and play it. How can we get the best out of him? Because I'm not convinced with him playing wide.
4. Our right side (Ossie, EDB and Willock) in the first half looked lovely. Not sure how that'll pan out but it looked like there was something coming together there. Add Reggie?
5. Fag paper between us winning and losing. Better than under Gaz where we'd have been stuffed and mounted by half time.
6. EDB - loving his work. More please.
7. All that being said, we could use John Wick up front. That bloke knows how to hit the target. |  |

We’ve got 10 points from a possible 51 …..so, it would be miraculous for us to get 7 points out of the next 9. |
Be lucky to get one. Think it will finally dawn on some, after these next few games, that there aren't three teams worse than us...even Sheff Weds could probably beat these losers. | | | |

Sums it up in a nutshell. Their are clear improvements in organisation, tactics, and style of play. Ultimately, however, the team remains toothless up front. Marti really has his work cut out. |  | | |

Not watching the game just reading this thread so no idea how he’s playing but people are crazy if they think Chair should be dropped and isn’t the only slither of hope we have for staying up. |
I think today reached a new high in Chair refusing to part with the ball, especially in the first half.
After turning inside early on & managing to have a shot (easily saved), he insisted on attempting that all the time. Ignoring Paal outside of him, ignoring trying to go outside the defender & ignoring playing the ball into the area.
Would they have achieved anything better? Possibly not, but they wouldn't have achieved less! | | | |

Hard disagree.
Kakay being anywhere near the field is symptomatic of the rot that has set in at QPR. |
Kakay was our best defender! The distribution from Cook & Dunne was awful.
The only two players who tried to go past Norwich defenders on the outside were Kakay & Paal. | | | |

^This
I think it may be a good thing if he is moved on in January. He ignores the obvious pass and continually just turns inside straight into 3 or 4 defenders. Way too greedy (or idiotic?). He plays his own part in this shambolic squad. We need a few more (him, Willock, Dykes, Dunne) moved on ASAP. [Post edited 25 Nov 2023 23:19]

A lot of comments about Colback's discipline, but, and this is not excusing it, just stating facts, he's always been the same.
21/22 - 46 games, 11 yellows, 1 red
18/19 - 39 games, 16 (!) yellows
17/18 - 16 & 6
16/17 - 34 & 10
15/16 - 30 & 11
and on and on.
The bloke has never learned and never will. He's a walking yellow card. |  |

Wasn’t at the game but judging from the BBC stats it looks like there has been some improvement. Big question is, does this team have the confidence/belief and technical ability to start winning?
Big game Tuesday night, saying that, I feel they’re all big games now. The size of the task and pressure is growing with each game that goes by.
Sadly, I can’t see this team improving. |  | | |
| Mr 100% Norwich thread on 09:45 - Nov 26 with 1148 views | Rangersw12 |
I think we were far better than we were under Ainsworth but we just don't create enough and when we did we miss them anyway
Haven't seen it back but at the time I thought Dykes should have scored from the corner and Field should have equalised at the death
We desperately need the midfield to bomb forward more and give Chair and Willock options hopefully at home we will see more of that and we gamble a bit more
Dykes was his usual awful self and the bit where he miscontrolled it then pretend he was injured was embarrassing
Was Chair's poorest game for a while aswell where he just didn't release the ball especially to Paal on the overlap
Feels like a big game Tuesday where we need to get something [Post edited 26 Nov 2023 9:46]

A desperate signing of a player who wasn’t particularly good in his prime. How long are we lumbered with him?
If you’re going to get booked then make it count. Committing an obvious foul on a player in their half going nowhere and then having a hissy fit about it was embarrassing. The bloke is nullified entirely once he’s on a yellow as all he’s really good for is taking someone out [Post edited 26 Nov 2023 9:49]
