Morisons Prozac 0 Posted February 2, 2013 Clean sheet and a strong performance against a resilient side with Bunn and Snodgrass really impressing. Also lost one in four in the league. Things are getting back on track Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baldyboy 0 Posted February 2, 2013 whilst it looked good after the game, with this afternoons results i dont think it was that good tbh, a point away against the bottom club, isnt fantastic when other teams around us are picking up points as well. However come the end of the seson it could be the difference between staying up or going down!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
super canary 0 Posted February 2, 2013 Nope, totally agree. Solid point, could have been alot worse. We aren''t good travelers so any point on the road is a good point as far as i''m concerned. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Morisons Prozac 0 Posted February 2, 2013 QPR are a side that concede very few though, I feel like that people are looking at the result at face value. We will stay up and will win against Fulham Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aggy 755 Posted February 2, 2013 I said elsewhere - it wasn''t a disaster but it wasn''t as good as some have made out either. It was an ''ok'' result. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fiery Zac 1,066 Posted February 2, 2013 I agree it was a good result, and the performance was good up to a point as against Spurs. But we had a few too many sloppy moments, giving the ball away too easily and bringing pressure onto ourselves too often when we''d already showed we could match them playing proper football and not just hoofing as we did numerous times in the 2nd half.We looked weaker as the game went on and bereft of new ideas (same as against Spurs) and so would have liked to have seen a change made earlier (Becchio being the obvious one today).

Dubai Mark 0 Posted February 2, 2013 When you consider that QPR,despite being bottom, have taken points off Man City, West Ham, Tottenham and Chelsea in their previous four Legaue matches, then I am also very happy with a point today. Add the result and performance to the one on Wednesday and its clear that we are getting back on track and I wouldnt be surprised at all if we get a few much needed wins over the nextb four or five matches. Todays game could have gone either way though,as usual Harry put some spin on it, but it wasnt only our keeper who had a great game, yes I am very satisfied and say that even fearing I could be labelled a "happy clapper" by someone on this board......

Yorkshire Canary 118 Posted February 2, 2013 Away from home to a side that has just spent £20m.This was a must win game for us and they should have thrown the kitchen sink at us. Ok we are dropping down the places in the league but the gap with 18th club is still 7 pts Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beefy is a legend 224 Posted February 2, 2013 I thought it was an excellent point.It maintained the gap to the bottom 3 with another week gone, it''s another away game out of the way against a side in form who I definitely think will be picking up points regularly from now on and so keeping the 11 point gap to them was massive.We also have a real nice home run-in now with opportunities for wins and we have now got our best XI back out on the pitch and with Whittaker and Becchio in reserve.Every away point from now on is a real bonus because I fancy us to pick up some decent home points from hereon in.

Mister Chops 7 Posted February 2, 2013 It wasn''t an "excellent" result, that would have been a win.It was a good result.A 0-0 away at Man U or Man City would be an "excellent" result.

With the resources at their disposal and the players they have signed it is ridiculous to label them as ''the bottom club''. They aren''t exactly Peterborough are they?We''ve kept them down, 11 points behind, that was as important as the point that we gained.

Buster Douglas 0 Posted February 2, 2013 Thought it was a well won point. QPR were always going to be lifted by their transfer activity and I think we may have been fortunate that Remy was injured yesterday. Nice to see us showing more urgency to win the 50/50 balls, my only regret is that Hoots should have used our Subs more and earlier. Anyway would have taken a point this AM so good result.

Branston Pickle 3,657 Posted February 2, 2013 Of course they are bottom, but QPR''s recent league form has been good - they beat Chelsea away, drew at West Ham, and have drawn against Man C and Spuds at home. There is no doubt they would have been definitely looking to win today (Lawro said it was a "certainty"), so it would be pretty daft for us to not be relatively happy with a point.

ron obvious 1,502 Posted February 2, 2013 Although I agree the table doesn''t lie, it''s difficult to pin down a realistic position for a team that changes players (& managers!) with such monotonous regularity. Townsend, & to an extent Samba, made a difference today.Although I think the result was fine, I don''t think the performance was. My main concerns were Bassong & Garrido, the former made some stupidly careless passes, the latter just didn''t seem to want to be there. Overall they looked nervy & a bit jaded. We need someone to galvanise the team, or it''s going to get nervy for all of us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
canaryfan68 0 Posted February 2, 2013 It was a good result considering they missed a penalty, but our inability showed again in hitting the net and hughtons cautioned approach to games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bryangunnshairline 0 Posted February 2, 2013 A decent point away from home. Qpr look more like a team now than they were two months ago remember they are gonna look at teams like ourselves and think we will take 3 pts from us. It''s two points dropped for them because they desperately need them and a point gained for us. We will get two or 3 wins from our home games left. We have played all the big boys at home remember Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mario Harpershite 20 Posted February 2, 2013 Satisfied with the result but still a little unnerved by the performance.I think the rest of this season is about scraping over the line and letting Hughton build his own side in the summer. If we are still over-cautious,, lacking in confidence and misplacing passes this time next year then I will be less satisfied with this kind of result. As an aside, if Bassong dwells on the ball or Garrido let''s players push him back 15 yards without a challenge too many more times this season it''s going to really cost us.

Guest Posted February 2, 2013 Obviously it''s not a great result, but given QPR''s predicament (e.g. fighting for their lives), their recent spending, and the two clubs'' comparative recent form, I''m not sure how anyone can think that a point isn''t a good result.Unless they''re a bit dim and/or have a vendetta against the manager of course...
