QPR Tactics

[Willlow]

This is by no means sour grapes, I feel that City played very poorly and would have been delighted if we had snatched a point.

However, Never have i seen a team time was and feign injury so much before. They started time wasting from their 1st throwing and I think their whole attitude was very negative. They came to slow the game down and break it up and they did this perfectly. I just feel that it was unsportsman like and would be upset if a Leicester team did this. I hope that they continue to do this to other teams and get a reputation for it and then start to feel the back lash of under hand tactics.

Totally agree Willow, I was there and whilst we were shite, the antics of Holloway and his team were nothing short of disgusting. I used to have a great deal of time for Holloway, he was quite open and honest in interviews and appeared to be quite a character but on yesterday's evidence the guy is a complete t*sser.

If anybody needs any further evidence as to why crowds are dwindling, then I suggest they watch the video of that game and it will be summed up in that 99 minutes.

1) Poor quality and over fussing refereeing, the sign of a good ref is one you dont notice, yesterdays took centre stage, however he was right to send off Maybury.

2) The time wasting and feigning injury, and in general the negative tactics adopted by QPR. We were outdone by the same tactics we used last week at Wolves, poacher turn gamekeeper.

3) Another home defeat against a team that with respect we could and should have beaten.

However I am not going to condemn QPR for their tactics, they won the game, and I dont want to sound like I am bitter, it is just with all this talk of dwindling crowds that yesterdays game summed it up in a nutshell.

I thought it was quite ironic that the QPR players had spent the entire 90 mins trying to con the ref into thinking that they were badly injured then one of there players actually is carried off with a serious injury. Hopefully he didn't break his leg?

Whilst we weren't so cynical about it, we went to Wolves with a gameplan to stifle the home team, and hit on the break. QPR tried the same, but then added the time-wasting etc.

I was pissed off enough last week that we played for a draw, had City then tried running the clock down in such an obvious way and at such an early stage in the game, I would consider giving my season ticket back.

He broke his ankle I believe....

 

[Yorkshire Vixen]

that is unfortunate but maybe they got their 'reward' from trying to con the ref

[MHS]

Who was it that was subbed with the dodgy leg?

 

[beaumontfox]

whilst i feel sorry for him for that...the tackle was late,from behind and twofooted and imo should've been a red card.

so in one way i feel as though putting in a reckless challenge like that serves him right.
