League 1

Re: League 1

Im not sure I saw the same game as some on here ( and on the Call Rob radio show, dont normally listen to that, is it always as negative ? ? )

1st 30 mins were we not great, but neither were QPR

1st goal they scored, Should have never have been robbed like that, 2nd goal, you have to win that slide tackle or at least bring the player down, dont let them skip past you

we hit the crossbar twice, had a few a very decent chances

Rambo looked like he was 100% committed to win, Ollie came on and as ive said in the past, he is exciting, he runs at players

on another day, we have won this game, and we would be thinking everything is good

I came away discussing it with my 2 daughters and it was all positive and I stand by that

I listened to the game on Radio Wales with Rob and Iwan Roberts while I was at the Welsh Fire with Mrs HaB and my boy.

Iwan Roberts was of the opinion that QPR were much the better side early on and deserved to be in front. He was critical of us being on the back foot and giving QPR too much respect and time on the ball. It wasn't until we scored that we actually took the game to them. That's unforgiveable at home. He also questioned Grant's position on the wing.

It won’t change overnight. Patience required but i feel our fans won’t abide by that

Accurate and not even the complete story! The players looked like they’d just met, with sideways passing, no pace and again (like Wednesday) some poor decision making when a pass should be made - either too late, to the wrong person or holding on to the ball and losing possession.
It was shambolic stuff.

Iwan Roberts got it spot on then.

Re: League 1

Just like the Haaland thread keeps being brought back to life every time he scores, I’d like to see the same with this one.
Imo, we’ll be no where near the relegation places at the end of the season.

Re: League 1

44 games left FFS.
Who ever suggested that we would get 110 points.
The first month's fixtures you can forget.
QPR and reading were top this time last year.
Id rather find our feet and lose a couple of games now.

For a team who had just lost 4-0 at home the clear message should have been to get at them straight from the kick off and try to get an early goal, which may have seen them heir heads drop.
It was the exact opposite. We stood off them tried to play possession football in defensive areas and had no forward play at all.
QPR played themselves into the game because we were so negative and so poor.
I really want Bulit to succeed but he must try a few changes aimed at getting the team going forward and playing on the front foot.
A bit early but perhaps Tanner and Robinson could come in and Bowler get away from hugging the touchline and for most part, out of the game.

Re: League 1

Playing the ball out from the back we make mistakes every single game, most of the goals we've conceded are from our own players making good passes to opposing players, will we ever be able to play the ball out from defence?

Trollope tried, Morrison tried, and both were gone by Christmas, will Bulut be any different?

I'd rather we found our feet and not get completely out fought and and out thought for 75 minutes against a fellow relegation candidate.

We will lose against Leicester almost certainly. The Sheffield Wednesday game then becomes absolutely massive already due to the 3 we have following. Lose to Leicester and Wednesday and this will get out of hand early doors.

Re: League 1

I agree we make mistakes but we don't have a target man who can hold the ball up or flick it on to a teammate to go long

Re: League 1

Yesterday was a massive blow. It doesn't get much easier than a Gareth Ainsworth QPR at home. But it's the fact that we were not even in the game for 60+ minutes. How does that happen? The first home game. Ramsey homecoming. The so called positivity. The "higher quality" players. I'm genuinely shocked at the performance.

Bulut says he chooses performances over names. If Grant starts against Leicester then he's another manager feeding us bullshit.

Still...no towel throwing over here. Just a little dummy spitting.

Re: League 1

I'm still too angry to comment. I can't remember the last time I felt like this. But as has been said, it's early doors and the transfer window is not closed. But seriously, what the ****?

We need a striker or 2 - otherwise we can look forward to tippy tappy side passes all season. Bulut was right in his summary.

Re: League 1

Wow, I'm glad we're not being managed by some of the defeatists on this board. Our deficiencies are plain to see but we've played just 2 league games with a new manager and new players and with more recruits on the horizon. Be disappointed yes but to throw in the towel after a single defeat is plain ridiculous.

Re: League 1

Nobody is throwing in the towel on anything. But equally does anyone think we have a stronger squad than last season - when other than for points deductions we’d have been down?
