QPR Blow Two Points
Posted on 02 February 2012.
What a shame. Two goals up, Villa playing like drains, Cisse boosted by a fabulous opening goal – QPR were all set to launch their charge to safety. Then, second half, it all went wrong. Mind you, a point at Villa Park is not to be sniffed at, and with Wolves hammered by Liverpool and Blackburn going down at …

Will Morrison’s Career UnRavel At Upton Park?
Posted on 02 February 2012.
Sorry about the headline but the pun was irresistible. On paper it looks a fantastic deal. £650,000 upfront is chicken feed in the big scheme of things, and apparently the wages are not that huge if the “wonderkid” doesn’t perform to expectations. If the fee does rise to closer to £3m then great, that means…

Allardyce should have gone to Spec Savers
Posted on 01 February 2012.
What a great big oaf. According to Allardyce, he “didn’t see last night’s result coming”. So what team has he been watching play since the beginning of December exactly? Not the same West Ham I have been watching! Was he at Reading? I was. And we were crap. Truly, truly crap. …

Morrison, Maynard and Vaz Te! And boy do we need them!
Posted on 31 January 2012.
So that’s it then, we couldn’t get Jelovic so we upped the bid for Vaz Te. Maynard arrived as I predicted and the mystery man was Morrison. Love the KUMB headline, no Tevez but Vaz Te. Very clever! Don’t know anything about Morrison except he is meant to have oodles of potential but a short fuse. Allegedly he has…

We are top of the Championship!
Posted on 31 January 2012.
Great news guys, Allardyce has transformed the club from top to bottom, producing a lean, mean cynical machine a world apart from the disorganised rabble put together by Zola and Grant. All he needed was time for the team to gel to show how brilliant he is as a manager, and now, six months into the season, we are …

QPR’s Fernandes Opens His Wallet!
Posted on 31 January 2012.
Wow! Well it looks like I have to eat my words. Assuming that the Zamora and Cisse deals go through, Fernandes has come up trumps after all. And with Wolves and Wigan getting thumped as I write, it is hard to imagine that QPR won’t now have the fire power to survive. …

QPR signing no marks on the never never
Posted on 30 January 2012.
Odd isn’t it? Mittal has all this money, Fernandes has let everybody believe that there is a huge transfer war chest available, but thus far, only £2.5m has been spent, and that is probably based on meeting Nedum’s inflated wages over the next two years. As with Wright-Phillips and Barton, you’ll probably find that no fee has actually…

West Ham’s New Ilan – We are 100% Underwhelmed!
Posted on 30 January 2012.
Oh dear God. After all the talk, after all the rumours of £5m bids, we end up with a no mark journeyman who has toured the world in his caravan, desperate for a club to let him settle. The guy has obviously read about Dale Farm and heard that West Ham are the…

Three’s Company: Jelavic, Maynard and A. N. Other before window slams closed.
Posted on 29 January 2012.
It’s getting tight to the wire, but expect West Ham to sign three before the window closes. Rhodes is the preferred option but it’s looking as if Huddersfield won’t let him go. One for the summer, perhaps, if we get up, although Rodallega might be a better option for the Prem – and cheaper! So expect Jelavic and …

Bristol City’s Maynard on his way
Posted on 29 January 2012.
Interesting that Nicky Maynard wasn’t in the Bristol City team that lost at Reading today. McInnes claimed “Nicky Maynard didn’t start because we won last week and I kept the same front three” but that is obviously bullshit. He is on his way out, and the buying club want him fit and ready…

On yours marks, get set….sign anybody!
Posted on 29 January 2012.
One month. One bloody month. So what do they do? They wait until the last two days. If the conduct of clubs like West Ham and QPR in the transfer window is not a definition of business madness, then tell me what is! I know those in the know will say, “That’s how it works.” …

QPR’s tactical discussion for Chelsea game leaked.
Posted on 29 January 2012.
Training pitch, Friday. Hughes calls the players together and dishes out the bibs saying, “Red bibs Chelsea, yellow bibs Man City.” “QPR boss,” corrects Barton. “Quite. Quite. Whatever. Now then boys, tactics. Big competition. FA Cup. Big game. Chelsea. Big club Chelsea. Big players. Chelsea.” “Not all of them boss, some of them are quite short,”…

Jesus Resurrected On Green Street
Posted on 28 January 2012.
And so it came to pass that the Lord came again unto the Earth in a place that had been named Green Street. And the people were sore amazed when the Messiah came amongst the pimps and the whore and the arch apostate Allardyce. For the soil was polluted and the air was polluted and the…

QPR Fans to Demand the Return of Warnock!
Posted on 28 January 2012.
Well would you believe it? I throw in my lot with the Hoops, invest a fiver in them to win the FA Cup, and they duly slip out of the competition with a whimper. Under Warnock, QPR were good enough to beat Chelsea courtesy of a dodgy penalty; under Hughes they surrendered in similar fashion. Sadly, because of Anton’s petulance, I…

Sam Sets The Standard
Posted on 28 January 2012.
How depressing was Allardyce’s article in the Evening Standard? No hint of an apology for our awful performance against Forest. Instead, he serves up a dish of smug, self congratulatory triumphalism, with a garnish of caution in case it all goes wrong. Doctor Evil’s understanding of the game is summed up when he boasts that stats…

QPR’s Anton refusing a hand job
Posted on 27 January 2012.
Well the guy is acting like a tosser so it is probably good news from Terry’s point of view that Ferdinand is refusing a handshake, because heaven only knows what might be coating the palm of Anton’s hand! There have been those defending Ferdinand, arguing that he hasn’t stirred all this up. Well his reluctance to …

QPR, PSG and Spurs Target Samba is a Disgrace to Football!
Posted on 27 January 2012.
Dear God, I hope Blackburn fine Samba and leave him to rot in the reserves for the rest of the season. The guy signed a contract extension last year and is the club captain at Blackburn, but with Tottenham, PSG and QPR sniffing, he slapped in a transfer request. So far, so fair enough. Everybody is entitled…

Tottenham’s ‘Arry Can’t Reed and Rite!

No surprise there! According to ‘Arry, he’s never “wrote” a letter in his life. He aint a wealer deeler, ‘e’s a football manager, but he can’t spel for his liffe and is so disorgasmized that he couldn’t posibly hide monie from the tax man.

Is Yo-Yo a No-No for Sullivan & Gold or Perfectly Acceptable?
Posted on 26 January 2012.
There is a body of opinion that holds that relegation suited Sullivan and Gold. It enabled them to cut wages across the board and nudged a host of high wage earners out of the door. The Eggert, Duxbury, Curbishley, Nani & Zola eras did for us good and proper. Bad signings, bad sales, bad …

Ex QPR & Hammers legend Phil Parkes tells it how it is at Upton Park!

Well said Phil Parkes! He was always a safe pair of hands and a level headed guy, and now he has come out and said it exactly as it is at Upton Park. According to Parkes, we only have 4 Premiership quality players in the squad: Green, Tomkins, Taylor and Noble (possibly). It is interesting that Cole and Collison …

Fernandes breaks the bank to bolster QPR
Posted on 26 January 2012.
There were those who scoffed. There were those who said Fernandes would try to cling to Premiership survival on the cheap. There were those who doubted the commitment of the Malaysian to the cause. Well what have those doubters got to say for themselves now? Now only has Fernandes signed Taiwo, they have now signed Nedum into the bargain! And…

£7m offer for Jelavic – if true, who needs QPR’s Fernandes?

Bloody hell. It’s being reported that Rangers have turned down a £7m bid for Jelavic. If this is true, then that’s nothing short of amazing. How brave are Sullivan and Gold to make an offer like that whilst we are still in the Championship? The Dildo Brothers have had …

Let’s not get too carried away, the guy has come back a couple of times before and barely got through a game, but we have to hope that the long layoff has put him right this time. Taylor isn’t Messi but he offers balance on the left of midfield and can deliver a wicked set piece. We …
