True, although IIRC on balance of play they deserved a point at their spot (notwithstanding the absolute pearlers from our star striker left back Ruffels) and absolutely bummed us in the gob at home and were really unlucky not to walk away with 3 points. Wasn't our home fixture the game where QPR's commentators said (with some justification!) that we looked like a side that hadn't been coached? That could've been any game from the start of last season to now, bar the ones Colin was in charge of 😉 True. Just addressing the point that we took 4 points off them under Buzz. We did, but that was more luck than management. Even against a side that was in freefall.

Lads in training with Moore Mic'd up 👇 Interesting thanks. Certainly sounds a lot more comfortable on the training pitch than be does in interviews!

Lads in training with Moore Mic'd up 👇 seems like a good man manager from that snippet, lots of vocal praise for the players in there, they look like they're listening and taking it in too.

Still sounds as thick as a whale omelette though. Does he have a stammer too or was he imitating an outboard motor at times. If it's a stammer I hadn't noticed it before.

Love how a lot of you forget how shite we were 1st half against Stoke, and the embarrassing displays against Burnley, Norwich, Coventry etc last season under Warnock!! Moore has no chance with some of you lot.

Moore has no chance with some of you lot. And yet none of those were as bad as the Brum performance or failing to have a shot on target against the worst team in the division.

If surveys are to be believed, many of my fellow countrymen would hear my accent and instantly presume I am as thick as pig shit. Whether or not they would be correct in their assumptions would not be my decision to make! That being said, as someone who grew up surrounded by these accents (apart from at home where it was West Riding vs Essex) I can assure you that not all Brummies and Yam-yams are numbskulls. I'd also like to humbly suggest that if Darren Moore has made it this far in football management, he's no imbecile either.

I know quite a lot of Brummies and used to work with a bloke from Wolverhampton. I'm well aware that you're not all as thick as you sound. Hence, you could be a Nobel Prize winner explaining the world's most cutting edge scientific research, but if you were from his part of the world you'd sound like the sort of person who could get outsmarted by a sofa cushion.

1-1 @ 6/1 or 1-0 @ 13/2 seem to be the favorite score bets.
I'm going for the 1-1

Gavin Ward is the man with the whistle on Saturday then Anthony Backhouse v Cardiff after his trip to Wales for Swans/Foxes .....Still not had lucky ref John Busby yet this season after 3 home wins under Warnock, on duty at Carrow Road (v Lids).

Looking forward to this one - expect us to come out and set the pace against a counter attacking QPR team with some real quality in Chair, Willock, Paal and Dykes (if all fit).
Would really like us to go attacking from the start but can’t see that and DM will set up to be solid in the first twenty.
My starting eleven if all fit would be
Nichols
Pearson Helik Nakayama
Thomas Hogg Wiles Rudoni Ruffels
Burgzorg Koroma
Think the bench options of Headley , Diarra , Harratt ( Kasumu and Ward too hopefully) will give us some ammo to switch up if needed.
Forget previous results and our position in the table …as a standalone this is a game that we need to win if we don’t want to be in a relegation battle . Also takes the pressure slightly off Tuesday as I’d be happy with 4 points from the two

Also takes the pressure slightly off Tuesday as I’d be happy with 4 points from the two I agree with your team, expect for one - Thomas at wing back is a non starter for me. I think Thomas has to play on the right wing or nothing , as in the 10 role ish , he looked lost and at wing back defensivley he does not do enough to help out pearson for example.

I always thought Thomas had his best spell for us in that position back under CC at the start of the season . He eventually got moved to be a winger in front of Turton I think ?

I always thought Thomas had his best spell for us in that position back under CC at the start of the season . He eventually got moved to be a winger in front of Turton I think ? He covered the first game, for toffolo as he had covid. But as soon as Toff was fit and as and when Turts was fit. Thomas was put in his position. Thomas is a winger with a full back behind him and a defensive full back at that. Thomas defensivley is very below par. You have to cater for him defensively when he plays. In a back 3 or 4 his defensive work is not great. But under cc we had the legs in midfield to cover it with LOB/JR and Hoggy but since then we simply haven't. getting back is fine, but then pointing is not defending. Since CC the games we have tried Thomas a wing back have not been great.

You can win the next 2 home games but then lose the next away game. 6 points from 9. Deal or No Deal.

QPR (9) & Cardiff (15) have had a lot more players on international duty, both will have small away followings to cheer them on & the Bluebirds have a long trip to Blackburn prior to Tuesday's game.........Everything in Towns favour, unless we shoot ourselves in the foot like our last two games.
