QPR’s Warnock Beginning to Bluster

Oh dear, Neil Warnock is now telling us that there’s not a lot of difference between QPR and the other promoted teams – and is putting the Rs lowly position in the table down to the late arrival of the new owners. This is all very odd because the last time…

Hutch a Roker legend?

They love him!! The Boxing Day match is one steeped in tradition and one I always look forward to, especially if the fixture list has been kind and Sunderland are at home.

Well he was a complete arse when he was playing and a complete arse when he went dogging, so I suppose it should be no surprise that he is a complete arse as a pundit.

O’Brien, Faye, Lansbury and Faubert available for Birmingham

Unfortunately Baldock is still out, as are Taylor (injury) and Collison (suspended), but Doctor Evil has more options available to him for the Birmingham game than for the Barnsley match, which is a blessed relief. Presumably this will signal a return to a 4-5-1 formation, with the usual suspects shuffled and square …

Should we leave QPR and Fulham to fight over Maynard?

This isn’t another gripe about selling the golden generation, because, to be honest, Rio and the loathed Lampard apart, none of them have proved that special…
