1-1 and I’ll be ecstatic with that

I’ve a feeling Poku will start and play well

Man love.
That’s what I have for this fella

It was love at first sight - the sight of him seeing the game picture three frames before the film rolls.
His first touch is always into just a yard of space and always where his opponent needs to rake through him to get the ball. He’s strong enough to make sure you can’t shove him out the way and his passing range is full.

Was described as the second coming of Ray Wilkins to me and I didn’t disagree
That is highest of high praise indeed.

He’s only missing one thing and that goals. If he had 6 to 8 a season in his locker then he’d be an £8mill player easily

Absolute kudos to whoever in the club identified him as a target and also got the deal over the line.

Didn’t look a happy set of terraces at the end did it?

Absolutely mad they’ve now gone over a calendar year without a win at home.
Certainly out “QPR’ing” QPR there!!!

Not a club I’ve ever warmed to so good enough for ‘em

I posted about the table the other day - after game 12 it's time to re-assess.

Also said how top 6 or 8 around turn of the year might mean a different calibre of player could be attracted in the January window IF we go shopping. I was really thinking about Prem loans there but in general as well.

However a positive thought fill me with a deep warm glow..... players like Chair and Burrell to come back into the match day squad are like new signings on their own (providing fit and firing).
I'm yet to be sold on Cirkin and if we get another 10 appearances from Lamptey that'll be something but if those two kick on that would be superb.

I'm writing Obikwho? off - looks to be a disasterous signing and his squad place is the one we should look to be filling as he's been as much use as a paperbag in a monsoon.
My opinion on Kone hasn't changed and he's got a lot to do but he's proved to be a warrior if nothing else so I'd hope he's up for the fight and will contribute.

Next two games points tally will be interesting.
Target for me is 4.... that should have us nestled in nicely top 8
If it's 3 then happy enough and we'll have beaten a top 6 team
2 would be acceptable with a hope results below us go in our favour.

All too early in the season but I cannot get away from the 6 points we've already left on the pitch IMHO

As we move into double figures of games played you'd usually look at it and say it's taking shape.... still a bit mental in the Championship.

I was gutted that late goal went in as we dropped a place and also the next two games taking us past the quarter way mark are proper tough. The crazy thing is positive results in those for us (I'd take 4 points all day!) and we might actually find ourselves with a cushion of a game/3 points to 8th / 9th which would be amazing.

Still can't get away from the points left on the pitch against PNE, Bolton, Charlton and to an extent Boro.... even another 4 from that lot and we'd be second.
Got to be happy with where we are though and I really didn't expect it (which might shock some).

This is the Championship and it can kick you right in the knackers if you're not giving it the gun every game.
I really hope we can stay in the mix by the time January ticks into view as that might well attract a different level of player joining in the mid season window if we go shopping.

I remain in my default position of 13 more wins needed
Great to see where we are though............

I get where you’re coming from

If you didn’t watch the game and looked at the stats you’d think Derby were unlucky
We are down as making 83 clearances and Derby not too dissimilar on shots plus (naturally) more possession
Also - the BBC has Pierce Charles down as man of the match!!!!

The story really was down to 10 men for that last 20 minutes
Mad amount of injury time by the ref and I thought we were extremely sloppy in both periods of it.
We looked desperate to get in for an orange from 45th minute and I do wonder if fitness levels are a factor….. not just due to those playing but also lack of availability of others.

Huge positives to take with the form of players like Smyth, Kamara and Madsen plus to cohesion at the back with Adamson getting better each game.

Brilliant tonight

Just edges out Kamara for me

Good luck to Mbengue

Yet again these pre planned on the hour subs backfire as we’re all done.

That aside his injury takes a shine off a good night.
Fingers crossed he’s back soon as

0-0 it is then!

As noted above.... really could've done with Burrell for this one.
Another blank from the forward line tonight will be a concern.

Hoping Kolli flowers in front of goal tonight x

No win in five but there’s a weird positivity around the place.

One day we’ll find a reincarnation of the goal machine Andy Thompson
If we had a striker in hot form this first quarter of the season we’d be top; sadly we lack some finishing guile.

Need it on Wednesday

What about Stoke and Huddersfield?

Done all those on your list apart from Filbert Street, never got there.

For my grounds visited list I used the clubs not the actual ground unless it was some sort of neutral venue. My rule was that it had to be a QPR game and friendlies counted as long as a pro club.
So including Wembley, Cardiff Arena and Chester City (some team of mechanics in the FA Cup) I got up to 83
That does include some clubs sadly no longer with us like Bury and R&D who you mentioned

I can’t work out if you like West Ham’s ground or not?!?!

Gutted afterwards that we hadn’t walked away with a win.
In the cold light of day I’ll put it down as a point gained as I don’t think too many will be leaving that shizenhole with much this season. So we’re chipping away at the points dropped against Charlton, Bolton and PNE plus possibly one v Boro….. six to make up then.

Tricky month ahead still.
If we’re still top six by Christmas then that would be amazing, especially with our A&E dressing room.

One player nobody has really raved about from Friday is Kamara.
Every time I see this fella play I’m more and more impressed; he’s absolutely fantastic and props to the club for securing his signature for the season.
