Re: Moore

Your right no real stand outs but a very good side.

We had a squad of very good championship players who were physically tough could play and a real team.

Sides would have hated playing against us.

Id say only Ramsey gets in that side.

This back 5 for starters.Etheridge Manga Morrison Bamba Bennett. Id put Connelly and Peltier in our side tomorrow let alone any of them.

A younger Ralls , Gunner , Pilkington Mendez Hoillet , Grujic , Ken turned up then.

Just shows how important a good manager is, to get the best out of a unit, like Warnock did

Re: Moore

Surely, if we do get Moore, we can have loftier ambitions than just staying up ? :facepalm:

I think so. I hope so. Shouldn't be any real threat of relegation with that team, surely.

I don't think playoffs is realistic though given how QPR just dominated us at home. QPR FFS !!! One tenacious midfielder isn't going to be the game changer they think it is. Unless everyone around him ups their game too but I need to see it to believe it.

Still mid-table for me unless Tan chooses to spend in January. Sounds like he will if we're at least 10th or thereabouts???

I do like this quality over quantity philosophy though. Hope it continues.

I hope a lot of things!

I know I keep banging on about this, but we’ll be bottom six or worse unless we start showing up for home games - was shocked how bad we were against a team that’s been awful for nearly a year last weekend.

Connolly would walk into this team.

You do keep banging on about it because whenever I think about our home form I think of you

But you're absolutely right!

It is THAT bad.

Re: Moore

I know….did we really have many stand out players when we went up in 2018?

Every player in the 2017/18 walks into our side. Manga, Bamba and Morrison are all outstanding centre backs. Bennett was very good, as was Etheridge. Ralls, Gunnar, Grujic were top centre mids, I was surprised how much Ralls struggled. NML and Hoilett (especially Hoilett) were brilliant wingers and Zohore was great. The slander this side gets is bizarre and Warnock gets way too much credit, even though he deserves a lot. I’ve not mentioned very good players like Peltier, Pilkington, Paterson, Bryson, Connolly, Ward, Harris, Richards etc.

In terms of absolute stand outs, Gunnar, Morrison, Bamba, Manga and Hoilett were brilliant players at Championship level.

QPR have Chair and Scotland’s no 9 (they’ve beaten Spain and Norway recently). They’ve got Sam Field who is linked with the PL. We should be beating them but the way people talk about QPR is as if they’re a team of League Two players.

Re: Moore

Connelly

Very good servant for us. Easily gets in our current side.

Going into our game they had won a total of three games in 2023 and one of them was against an already promoted Burnley.

3 wins in 23 games.

I didn't say they were a League Two side but "we should be beating them" is the understatement of the year.

With crutches and inflatable boot

We have won 2 home games in 2023, QPR 2 away prior to last weekend.

Until our form is better I can't say I shared your pre match confidence.

Re: Moore

Ronnie would struggle to score in this group of players, legs are probably shot now.

Connolly was terrible. I've never seen a player back off from his opponent as much as Connolly used to.

Only at FB, which was not his best position. He was a very good CB.
