I think it's more to do with Bradofrd having been on an upward tick for a while and having better players. I would expect to see them in the champonship in the next few years.
But we should recall Morgan and get him somewhere else playing regular football, even it it's league 2.
It is also a warning that we need to be careful not to overhype young players. The club don't help themselves with this either. That premier league cup win looks pretty average now. |

Playing regularly
Cory Adjetey-Brew (Worthing, 4th, National League)
19 apps (14 league, 4 FA Youth Cup, 1 National League Cup) · 4 goals, 2 assists · 1,672 mins. The standout so far. He’s the most-used loanee by a distance and is putting up good numbers.
Jaiden Putman (Woking, 13th, National League)
13 apps (10 league, 3 National League Cup) · 2 assists · 850 mins · 6 starts
He wasn’t in the starting XI at first but was starting by mid-September. He was sent off three weeks ago and came straight back into the team on Saturday, playing the full 90 at centre-back in an away win at Scunthorpe.
Daniel Bennie (Dundee United, 4th, Scottish Premiership)
11 apps · 1 goal, 1 assist · 595 mins
He’s involved most weeks at a team near the top of the league, but he hasn’t completed a full 90 yet.
Fringe or mixed
Emmerson Sutton (Worthing, 4th, National League)
7 apps (5 league, 1 National League Cup, 1 Premier League Cup for QPR) · 1 goal (National League Cup, in a start)
He has only one league start and 99 league minutes.
Kieran Morgan (Bradford, 3rd, League One)
5 apps · 0 goal contributions
In the league he’s had only two sub appearances (28 and 9 mins), but he has played the full 90 in three cup games.
Ziyad Larkeche (Barnsley, 23rd, League One)
4 apps · 0 goal contributions
He’s been taken off at half-time twice, but both times as part of a triple change. He started and played 88 minutes in Saturday’s 2-1 defeat.
Struggling for minutes
Jaylan Pearman (Swindon, 14th, League Two)
6 apps (4 league, 2 EFL Trophy) · 0 goal contributions
He was taken off at half-time in his only league start.
Philip Sanyaolu (Bristol Rovers, 15th, League Two)
4 apps (2 league, 2 EFL Trophy) · 0 goal contributions
He was taken off at half-time in his only league start. Otherwise he’s been an unused sub every game, apart from two where he wasn’t in the matchday squad.
Joe Walsh (Wigan, 24th, League One)
He dropped out of the team before the end of August and hasn’t played since.
Tylon Smith (New England Revolution, 2nd, Eastern Conference)
He hasn’t made an MLS appearance yet. [Post edited 26 Oct 9:49]

I am starting to eat humble pie with Keeley.
I have watched him closely recently and here are my thoughts.
- Closes the space to the winger REALLY quickly, this doesn't allow the winger to get himself running at you and get you back pedalling side on. (Kemper also does this very well)
- Stops the cross (Easy game innit).
- Body position when the winger does get running at him needs work but has come on massively so far even this season.
This is enabled because he is now a fully developed 23 year old (24 in March). His atheltic ability will be there. Now he is adding defensive technique to his game.
The things he needs to improve.
- Be braver on the ball. He relies on the back pass to Jimmy way too much right now. To progress he needs to be braver and get his head up for the forward pass more.
- Work on his crossing. Not the best at the moment. A bit Michael Meaker.
- Driving with the ball at his feet. If he can add this to his game ala Mbengue, he will be a serious asset.
Overall, he is going to play, so considering his uptick so far this season you have to be happy with his direction of travel. I also like that we haven't overhyped him, we haven't plasetered him on socials and let him get on with it. Let young players fly under the radar (Emmerson Sutton anyone?). [Post edited 26 Oct 9:52]

Broader context? Thats just an easy way out. Easy excuses for a bunch of people that drown you in statistics to drown out the noise.
Keeping people upright is where we can get an edge in this division. We have failed at this miserable for how long now? It's the single biggest issue holding the club back and it's continuing to happen.
There is one common denominator here...... |

Also, they have got someone literally sitting there ready to press a button when Jimmy Dunne heads the ball. It's so forced and so anti-QPR.

"Fan consultation isn't a priority for this regime"
And thats how things start changing, start forcing things like this on people, say it's just a song, say that young people like it. Then we start wearing the away kit at home.
What next? Doing away with tradition will not go down well with this fanbase, but feels like its co-ordinated as this regime have targeted young people with their online presence specifically.
It all starts somewhere and I don't like it. |

The squad is looking in good nick and having seen some of the oppo so far, we should now be aiming to be right in the mix and probably top 6 by January. If that isn't the goal behind closed doors, with this squad and the state of the rest of the league.....
As Clive said they other day, if not now, when? |

He has quite a big technical deficiency in that he moves across the goal line like he is in treacle. |

Non-related to the car giant site but also kind of related to the topic......
The cycle lane on wood lane has taken a year to be built. parts of it are finished but have been left closed.
It is absolutely insane how public infrastructure jobs take so long in this country. Meanwhile, Asia presses on. |

"But it did appear from listening to the meeting it was a lot about trying to catch Christian out which I felt was my overriding element listening to the meeting and I am not aware of how it was clearly as was not there in person either."
He catches himself out by not having figures on season tickets available to hand when meeting a fans group. A good CEO would lie or have the figures available. Lee Hoos would have had them available, or he would have lied. Shows lack of preparation going into these meetings. |

Just catching up on all of this.
I represent AKUTRs at these meetings, so I have to be very respectful of that. Dave gives me a couple of items he is interested in, and I report back. Dave trusts me enough to have carte blanche, though, and to ask my own questions. But again, the responsibility of being there on behalf of DT is something I take seriously. Although I am totally sure at this point, CN and PM know exactly who I am and my views on Christian.
In previous meetings I have pushed Nourry on tough topics and weirdly at the end of this one he said to me "Nice to see you, you always give me a hard time." ...In this meeting I only really asked what happened to the pitch and pushed back a little on the comms around the Bould stuff. In previous meetings I have pushed back a lot harder on various topics.
You have to give everyone a chance to ask questions and give them a chance to retort. Again in previous meetings, I have found myself jumping in quite a lot. It just wasn't possible this time, you have to be respectful of others that have attended. Made even harder now by certain people that have been added to the group.
I feel like the group is too bloated now to have proper conversations with CN and PM. It's become a fans forum. The first question about the AI GK was just a waste of time. |

"He only wants a select few fans there because he can’t really handle being pushed on anything that isn’t pre prepared."
This Is playing it to be true, noticeable that pro nourry voices were added to the group this time to facilitate that.
RE; season tickets. I think it would have gone down alot better by just telling people to look out the window at the current climate in the world. I have no issues with the price rises, I do have issues with the way it was communicated. |

Sorry but I have to object to this JD. There are multiple people that challenge him in these meetings. Previous meetings were spicier, although I will admit the attendee list has become bloated now, in an attempt to even the playing field, so to speak. |

It's not too much to expect the CEO to turn upto a fans meeting prepared with his numbers, to answer the inevitable questions on season tickets.
Incompetence, arrogance, or both? |

Reply | Supporter Advisory Board
at 10:58 15 May 2026
For context, see below the FSA's framework for SAB confidentiality agreements. It's mandated by the FSA. Although some of it allows clubs to be ambiguous, the framework is meant to give some protection to those supporters that have put themselves forward.
CONFIDENTIALITY POLICY
This code sets out the terms of handling confidential information expected of
members of -insert club- Fan Advisory Board (“the FAB”) and -insert club- (“the Club”)
Any breach of this code may incur disciplinary action up to and including removal
from their position under the provisions detailed in the disciplinary process.
Introduction
The general principle is that the FAB will be able to raise, discuss, examine,
investigate and ask questions about any matter concerning the Club.
Confidential Information
1. For the FAB to be effective, members must respect each other, their views,
any collective decisions made and recognise items highlighted as
confidential.
2. Information highlighted as confidential that fits within the definition of
“confidential information” will be treated as confidential by all board members
3. Public disclosure of confidential information will be on terms agreed by the
club and the FAB.
4. The FAB fan group representatives may request that an item deemed
confidential can be shared and discussed with their member group board. If
agreed by the Club, the member group board becomes subject to this
confidentiality policy, and if breached that group’s seat on the FAB becomes
subject to the disciplinary procedure, and as such it would be possible to
remove the representative person and seat.
5. The definition of ‘confidential information’ is as follows:
• Any information given on terms which forbid its disclosure to third parties
• Any information given which cannot be disclosed following an order of the
court
• Any information given which cannot be disclosed for reasons of contract
• Personal data relating to any individual or information likely to reveal the
identity of an individual within the meaning of the Data Protection Act
2018
• Information relating to any consultations or negotiations whether
contemplated or otherwise in connection with any labour relations
matters arising between an employer and an employee as well as
employers and employees
• Information in respect of which a claim to legal professional privilege
could be maintained in legal proceedings
• Information relating to any action taken or to be taken in connection with
the prevention, investigation or prosecution of crime.
• Any information deemed by a party that is reasonably considered to be
business confidential
6. Information falling within clause 5 is not confidential information by virtue of
that paragraph if it is required to be registered under:
• The Companies Act 2006
• The Friendly Societies Act 1992
• The Cooperative and Community Benefit Societies Act 2014
• The Building Societies Act 1997
• The Charities Act 2011
7. Information which falls into clause 5 may be considered confidential if and for
as long as in all the circumstances the interest in maintaining the
confidentiality of such information outweighs the interest in its disclosure.
Conduct relating to confidential items during meetings
8. If an item appears on the agenda of a meeting during which confidential
information will be imparted, this will be brought to the attention of members
prior to discussion of that item.
Confidentiality Addendum
9. Any information shared by Club sources to FAB members, or their
representatives, should be treated as confidential, unless it is indisputable the
information has previously been the subject of a prior Club announcement to
or already in the public domain.
10. If the information in question has not been released, formal written
permission from the Club must be received before any such information is
shared with any unauthorised third party either verbally or in a written form.
11. Knowledge is intellectual property and belongs to the Club or FAB board. If it’s
shared in a discussion, it remains the Club’s or the FAB board’s property and
therefore does not belong to anyone else without the Club’s or FAB board’s
explicit approval.
12. Any public statements made by the FAB should be shared with the club in
advance of release. The FAB and its members reserve the right to pass public
comments on all public club plans and actions, whilst respecting
confidentiality.
13. Information covered by this agreement continues to be confidential, and
bound by this agreement, beyond all terms of office. |

A huge risk. There is a reason the ground was selling out these last 3 years. Lot's of young lads going.
That stops, still at LR in 10 years probably, and suddenly no youth? Short sighted decisions. |
