Hasn't that been the mentality of he club for years which is part of the problem Loads of points to play for but as usual we just want to sack off games as it's ok lose at QPR . We are in a no better position than last season after spending ridiculous amounts of money . Like I've said many times every single part of the club should be performing better [Post edited 28 Feb 19:55]

I didn't read too many dissenting paragraphs when Kone etc were being signed.

We're also not going to be winning many points with this injury list. It's not sacking off the games, it's being realistic.

However, if Ben Williams is involved next season then we'll repeat it again. Anyone think Williams will be sacked or resign?

I think they will say he has left but I would be amazed if he’s not been told to leave already.

Be funny if QPR told Williams to 'get on his bike!' Would be even funnier if when riding off into the distance, Williams were to pull a hammy just after the club shop.

That said, Nourry does not strike me as someone imbued with humour, so we should hope at best, a boring AI inspired piece mentioning different challenges etc.

It doesn't matter who we sign when we have this losers mentality around the club

Norwich have more injuries than us and look at their attitude compared to ours

As for Williams I haven't a clue if he will go but surely it can't be down to just one person and that whole department needs to be looked at

All I do know is that next season will likely be the same as this . Start poorly, go out in the cup to lower league , go on a decent run and then go to pot , rinse and repeat zzzzz

The mentality around the club is the thing. Perhaps it comes after years of just about avoiding relegation? Perhaps it comes from a lack of ambition based on the fact that compared to at least 10 other sides in this league, we can't actually compete financially to build a team to compete at the top level.

It also comes from seasons of injuries to players at key times and a lack of depth financially to cover the gaps.

I'll say it again, we brought in Steve Bould to coach the defence and it clearly hasn't worked, bar a few 0-0 away results. Overall, the defence, which has some decent players, has leaked horribly this year. That has to be addressed. We have to be much better next season or we'll just wallow in lower mid table forever.

On "All I do know is that next season will likely be the same as this . Start poorly, go out in the cup to lower league , go on a decent run and then go to pot , rinse and repeat zzzzz" this is good to know and at least I won't be disappointed.

The defence had nothing to do with Campbell's goal, that was down to not so super Varane.

An American guy from NY sat next to me on Saturday, he had always wanted to visit LR, thinks its an amazing place. Its such a shame the team performance on the pitch failed to help bouy us fans so he could savour LR at its best. He spends much of his time visiting European football games, this trip he so far has taken in Benfica, Juve, Arsenal and the supa hoops.

His first half comment was he could not understand the team set up or what our game plan was.

His hand wasn't forced because we played much better in the second half after our half time changes. Therefore the starting 11 was wrong.

I think the second half had as much to do with Utd staying in second gear, they could have scored more at any time...

The issue is we are not looking to be a competitive club who might as did this season with hang around the top half maybe looking t promotion its purely a conveyor belt to devleop players to make us self sustaining , even when we spent weeks just aoutside the top 6 i dont think the powers that be wanted us to be in the play offs , way to many weaknesses would have become obvious even more so than they are right now . i think for the considerable future the sole purpose of the club is to try and break even each season nothing more. and of course this is all being run on a theory dreamt up by the CEO of the club not based on anything more than crunching numbers and coming up with what we presently have in place .

I think with hindsight the manager could have ripped up the pattern of play book when Burrell was injured and looked for something else other than two up top, high press catch the other team on the break.

We just don't have the options to do this, and would have been better to stodge up that midfield.

I doubt anyone at the club wants us to fail, but I think top 6 with our wafer thin squad of quality is a pipe dream. We are disappointingly going to par the course again, which is a shame as the league is wide open this year with at least two playoff spots up for grabs

What worries me is that we knew from the moment of signing him RND - that he was unable to play against the Blades. Even allowing for the injuries to play the Brazilian youngster and Saito on the same side of the field was management naievity of the highest order in my opinion. It wasn’t that he only knew 10 minutes before kick off.
There were other combinations that made much more sense. They are a physical side and have been for years .
Even without the injuries I did not think we were good enough for the play offs but our non playing side leaves me with very little confidence in getting any better any time soon

I never lie but I don't always tell the truth

I know where the problem lies, we've conceded 54 goals.

Unless there Is something wrong with the Inside my head, I'd look at that figure of 54 goals and think whoa there this has got to stop.

As a consequence staring tomorrow early morning Sunday 1st March I'd have every player In at the training ground with the sole purpose of learning how to defend.

Apparently we have a defensive coach and we have some defenders, well either the defensive coach Is useless or our defenders are useless (or both) are useless (which Is my guess).

I'd say watch these videos and I'd show then videos of David Bardsley and Clive Wilson at work and of course Alan McDonald, at the end of the videos I'd ask our players ''well what do you think? don't ask me what can my club do for me, ask your fcking self what can I do for my club''

You lose 7-1, 4-0 and 5-0, it's no wonder we've conceded 54.

It's alright though, Ziyad may be back next season.

The issue with the squad is that the reserves are the players "picked for the future" even though they are needed today.

Keep fit, we're ok. Get these injuries, we're fckd.

Most other clubs have 1 or 2 seriously near the first team, Nourry likes to think we have 5 or 6 but none of them would consistly put adequate performances in for the first team.

We HAVE to get the fitness side right or we will be looking down once more.

	Can we go out yet?

I must take some of that back. We have some good players but they must be be so pissed off with the whole situation. Have a good game and get dropped for the next one. Getting picked when they obviously need a rest. Don’t tell about how thin the squad is and we loan Sam Field to Norwich.
I’ve heard players criticised for not giving their all, I wouldn’t blame anyone for having a lie in on Saturday. It’s all become such a shambles…..

With all respect, I can’t agree with all of that JC.

We do have some good players, who probably/possibly want to be great players, those types don’t take days off - especially when backs are against the wall. We know who those players are, we’ve had them in the past. We don’t have many of them now.

These are privileged sportsmen. Paid extortionate money to be sportsmen (while many other sports people have to fight for funding to keep being a top level athlete). Footballers will get little sympathy from me. How many times do we hear about crossing the white line when responsibility begins - the manager may get it wrong but the player is responsible when on the pitch. Leaders step up, communicate and give 90 minutes they’re all. Then they can take time off.

It’s been tough with the injuries, no doubt about it. Kone still coming out strapped up and putting in a shift - he may not be 100% but you can see he’s trying. If there’s a problem on the pitch the players need to react, speak to their coach for in game changes. It’s a team sport.

There’s no doubt all managers make mistakes. They are also always the first person blamed and sacked. I get it, the easy/only option. But we all know it’s rarely the solution or silver bullet. We (most clubs) just rinse and repeat until they get lucky.

We’re in a tough period of the season, it will improve. Thankfully we’re not fighting a relegation battle with the squad in its current state.
