Thread | Hillsborough - not a single officer will be held to account

The bereaved families have been fighting for 36 years for justice and have been denied, even though their case has been vindicated. It's an absolute scandal and must be incredibly difficult for them to accept.
Yet another desperate low for the police in this country. |

I'd prefer us to wait and make a decision at the end of the season. I'm glad he's with us, but he's only played 12 times, so it would be wise to see how he performs over the next 28 games or so. |

I've never really understood the Varane love. He has had the occasional good game but, as this thread documents, he's got serious weaknesses he must improve on.
I'd like to see Hayden given a run in his place if nothing else, to make Varane realise he's not an automatic first pick. I wouldn't be surprised if Stephan does just that starting next Saturday. |

Look, I liked Kakay, never considered him a 'joke', but could see he wasn't a Championship level player.
He appeared in 9 games for Boavista and was then released on a free to Kosice, who are currently rooted to the bottom of the Slovak first division. Nothing to write home about there.
Mbengue is better than Kakay but he has a hell of a lot of work to do if he's going to secure a place in the starting 11. |

I rarely agree with your views - more how you express them - but I think we see today's performance in a similar light.
I honestly believe we could have grabbed the points today if Stephan and the players had been a bit more savvy. But of course hindsight is always cleverer than foresight and I don't work at the QPR coalface. They all do.
Win the next game and today will fade into the November mizzle. |

Perhaps but I don't think you make any argument on his behalf by comparing him to Kakay. |

Always hated the Budgies and hate them a bit more now. But, I think today clarified a few things.
Mbengue is not the answer to the RB question. He simply does not have the requisite ball control.
Varane is not improving as we hoped he would. He remains clumsy and often just a bit thick when in possession.
Madsen is shrinking back into his shell. He's not affecting the game as he must do being the deep lying playmaker.
Frey has become an old nag without a horn. He should never be subbed on the pitch again.
GK, RB and CM are problem areas for this team. |

I think he's having the time of his playing life and will want to play every game. |

I'd expect a good few HT subs. Kone for Saito, Hayden for Varane, RDN for Field. Keep Smyth for a bit later. |

I didn't watch it, Brian. I must admit that in the past I haven't been all that convinced by Bennie. That he kept popping up in different positions didn't help. But, he's been playing striker quite a bit now and from what I've gathered, pretty successfully.
Where he'll end up, though, I'm really not sure. |
