I did actually agree with nearly all i heard at the fans forum but somehow missed Christian Nourry saying that his performance team have been sensational.
Now, on most things he has learnt from his mistakes and i have been impressed, but why on earth he was name checking all the performance team as sensational for me, he is not helping himself.
For many reasons its happened but the performance team have not been able to stop an horrendous injury list for the last three seasons.
There are some mitigating factors which we all know about, but it was almost like he was putting the entire performance team on easy street in saying what he said.
Sensational would not have been the words I would have used.
I dont know what dirt this team has on Nourry but it must be mucky !!!
Maybe some of this is bad luck but its almost expected that one or two players pick up some kind of injury in every game. It happens so often thats its becoming sadly predictable. [Post edited 1 Nov 22:13]

Thread | Where we fail - Wingers as back up defenders
at 07:55 1 Nov 2026
Vale and Poku are both very poor defensively. Definitely an issue we need to address. Dembele and Saito likewise. Our only wide man that can defend as well is Paul Smyth.
Maybe Steve Bould needs extra time on the training pitch with these guys doing defensive drills.
We have four or five decent full backs, but against the better teams, we need our wide men up top to help, because the full backs can't do it all alone.
Definitely for me an issue that needs looking at. Saints opened us up on the flanks with ease yesterday !!

Varane i thought was reasonable today, especially first half. Kamara was poor today though.
It shows in the against the best teams we need Madsen.
Madsen and Burrell and we do better. Hope they both return after the international break.
We need at least four points from the two home games, hopefully six and these two come back and we go again.
Southampton are probably the best team in the league but i dont think they got punished enough for cheating. Their manager should have got a six month ban for me, so hope somehow they f**k it up. Really dont like them. |

How about our lilac kit - hate it.
I actually bought the black kit this season. i would wear this for away games and we seem to have had good results in it, but the lilac is just wrong for me.
If you want to intimidate, mean black or lightweight light purple !!!! [Post edited 1 Nov 5:49]

Sorry chap.
Think you said this in haste.
But you saying it about Kone, who got our quickest hat trick in history in the last game and scored a cracking goal in this one. If other elements of his game failed, remember he is a centre forward.
Saito, Vale and Poku are all inconsistent, but on their days, they are certainly decent.
Apart from that?....... [Post edited 1 Nov 5:45]

First half we were generally decent
Poku and Vale were not at their best and sad for Alfie. An inevitable injury and annoying to concede at the death too, but it was a four - one result in terms of their ability to open us up.
I bet on Coventry to win the league last season before the start and managed to get 16 to 1 on Saints this season, and tbf I think its between them and Boro this season.
Our losses are home to Boro, which could have been different and away at Birmingham and Saints.
I dont feel its time to be despondent today. They are just too good for us and the most encouraging thing was a fantastic finish from Kone.
Burnley and Lincoln at home - really need six points from these two games and then we can see where we get to.
I would say it was our worst defensive display this season but perhaps that was more to do with the quality of the opposition.
We move on and hope Alfie's injury is not as feared. |

We need make couple of subs in first 15 minutes of this half. Maybe at 55 minutes but before any chance of a two nil scoreline.
Would bring on Chair and move Smyth wide and take Vale off.
Poku give him a bit longer and maybe Dembele earlier.
Am expecting at some point Ronnie moving into midfield and JCS coming in and probably Kamara off today and not Varane.
Cirkin will get a run out instead of Kemper at some point too. [Post edited 31 Oct 16:15]

Reply | Big, horrible adverts.
at 15:10 30 Oct 2026
I always thought adverts on sites are generally aligned by algorithms as to what you mostly search or look at, but perhaps certain sites ie for example here may have a glitch in that certain advertisers find a way to get their ads on the page visible to site visitors.
If you watch a lot of serial killer podcasts though unsure what the **** comes up on the ads.
I know you can use ad blockers, which can help the functionality of the site, but some are advertised as blockers but actually do the opposite and hack into sites unknowingly by the user.
Am sure there must be a techy guru on here, though that can advise better and exactly what can be done securely.
Hopefully. [Post edited 30 Oct 15:11]

"You never know what you going to get."
Forest Gump's words could easily be said about QPR.
On new years day in 1992, we annihalated Man Utd 4 - 1 at Old Trafford. Three days later, ironically, we played away at Southampton and lost 2 - 0 with a pretty miserable display.
The scene is therefore set.
For me, it could be 0-0, it could be 3-3. We could lose 3-0, we could win 3-0.
We are QPR !!

Saints and Sinners - perhaps !!!
Sinning Saints....
Hope we can perform well. Think the first goal is key - we score first, we have a chance to get a point or win. I think if they score first, it would be exceptional for us to get anything out of the game. |

Its when we start to hear podcasters, youtubers, social media contributers and everyday journalists and us forum types that all actually follow the club and have done for decades and when all of these types start bigging us up, then we all will suddenly believe we have found the key to success.
Basically we all know the history.
It could all turn to dust as quickly as our star has risen. We are all hopeful without being completely naive to suggest we have finally found our long term success forevermore.
But it is decent to hear outsiders being impressed with how we are progressing. |

Odegard, Havertz, Gyokeres, Bruno Guimares and presumably Eze would have taken the last pen.
Appreciate cup upsets lessened these days but 18th in league 2 knocking out the Premier League Champions and Champions league finalists is quite a story.
Good luck to them and they even wear the Arsenal kit.... |

This boy seems the real deal.
I have watched a few highlights. He is playing left back but finishes like a top striker.
Pace and power. I think he is only 18 but lets hope he is one from the production line

There is a few youtubers that big us up last season and this.
We have put in some amazing performances recently interspersed with very middling ones too, but its promising that others seem to think we are onto something. |

Top man
One of my neighbours chatted to him about Harry yesterday. An Arsenal fan, but was very much saying Kane deserves all the accolades that come his way.
No flash Harry, very grounded man, who just does his job exceptionally well.
Top man, indeed. [Post edited 27 Oct 16:25]
