(My record is won 1, drawn 1. So unbeaten, 😀 but regardless who starts the post, it’s the players who have to get us out the trenches and to D (Delivery) Day) - yes, double brackets in that sentence.
War is bad-and there is too much happening of it in the world. But I thought will use the fighting for survival analogy for what we need to do vs PNE.
My grandad fought in North Africa, my favourite set of books are Spike Milligan’s war memoirs (hence the title of the post), war comics and army sets were part of my childhood growing up in the 70’s, Sir Laurence Olivier's unique narrative voice of the World at War still poignant from when I first heard it when watching with my dad on black and white TV.
I’m not a war fanatic. Much better things in life.
But let’s get stuck in, let’s dig deep-We shall never surrender to any relegation threat! - even if we think Preston are on the beach already. Let’s see a bright light in our 3rd last game. Let us see peace in the world. Get stuck in Hoops.
QPR 2 PNE 1 (Chair and Armstrong)

Bad Juju in the first paragraph. What you describe as double brackets is in fact a 1.5 bracket. In match thread parlance this is a hanging bracket. Please rectify.
Danny P - 2 brackets on the left, 2 on the right. So balanced. Excuse me if I’m slow……Pray tell

The good thing about the late KO is that if Norwich win their 3pm game then it's a dead rubber for Preston. 2- 0 hoops. Armstrong , Anderson.
I will be at the front row of R block with my Copenhagen R´s flag trying to get the attention of Lucas Andersen and geeing him up. He is long overdue to scoring his first QPR goal. This Saturday will be the perfect moment to get that first and all important goal.

I wouldn't start him on current form, unfortunately.
Again, I don't think what we have in this squad means that the selection of this player or that player is particularly vital. What is vital is getting performances out of those that DO play.
Bare bones.

Sure and Cifuentes doesn't have a great deal of choice anyway. The starting 11 usually sees 2 or 3 changes but it's the same matchday squad from one game to the next, and much the same in the way of subs too. I think he's squeezing as much as he can from what's available to him.

Weil I say you’ve opened the match-day thread with an open bracket - I missed that - nerves - my apologies. A fascinating manoeuvre. If this is a success it could change everything. Wishing you all the best for thread success 👍🏼

I’ve thought about this a fair bit…too much, tbh.
I don’t think this is a “must not lose”. I think it is a must win. The difference between a loss and a draw isn’t relevant, IMO.
I believe the most likely points total to survive is 50 points and you’ll survive on GD, it could be 51 though.
If we draw, we’d still need 2-3 points to survive from 2 games, meaning we’ll need to beat Leeds or face going to Cov needing to draw and hope results go our way or win. If we lose, it’ll be the same, we’ll need to beat Leeds to get to 50.
Obviously 1 point is better than none and 3 draws is possible.
However, I think we should be all out for the win. If it it costs us a point, so be it. We’d need to beat Leeds anyway.
Arguably more important this Saturday is actually Huddersfield and Wednesday losing. Both lose and we have had a good weekend. If they both win and Stoke and Birmingham won, even if we win,the picture isn’t much different to now. Apart from meaning it likely one of Huddersfield or Brum drop as they play each other. We’d still need more points from Leeds and Cov.

Thank you Danny P. Just got back from the Gabba - went to watch Geelong Cats vs Brisbane Lions (AFL). I chose Geelong Cats as my team when I emigrated here almost ten years ago. Why? Cause their colours the closest to QPR’s 😀😀😀😀. They won tonight …..good omen…. Night time in Aus
