Who?

To be fair the referee saw it once from one angle, I've seen it from several angles, several times, it looked harsh to me, and to the commentators.

Experience is being promoted on here as the answer, for me it isn't. What would be useful is quality, fit, skilled, motivated, experienced players with leadership skills. The fact is we can't afford them. Thomas and Euell are long term injured, Skacel is probably looking to get away. Svennson, Perry, Wooton, Davis, John are motivated. I don't know where BWP stands. That leaves us with the rest of the young squad. I really can't see any point in pie in the sky proposals to insert experience, we just don't have much available.

I thought he looked very useful and was winning the ball in the air, he deserves another chance sooner rather than later.

A fact many people have yet to grasp. I'm looking forward to Wednesday and Saturday and 6 games in 20 days.

Until Skacel commits himself 100% to Saints, he can rot in the reserves.

Or more like last season, 0-1 defeats, hopeless dross, no spirit and almost being relegated.

He was only about an inch from the ball, the view from the left showed it best, he was sliding on one leg reaching for the ball with his right foot, he could almost have touched it.

IF!!!!!!!!

The Stoke result was a good result but that QPR team was a mere shadow of today's team.

He couldn't do a thing about it. His distribution was first class today, just the crosses to deal with now.

They fear that Thomas may be out long term, months. Awaiting results I believe.

I happen to think that any team we have fielded in the last 2 years would have been beaten at QPR. How many 1-5 and 1-4 defeats did we have last season, with the so called experienced underperforming, unfit, unmotivated, couldn't hit a barn door with a banjo, can't deal with free kicks and crosses, experienced, overpaid journeymen. All descriptions used on here to describe last years team. Short memories, now people here are advocating bringing some of them in. Having sat through more than 30 games last season, no thanks. As for Skacel walking out on us and leaving us to our own devices, he can rot in the reserves unless he changes his commitment.

Maybe they will appeal, there is plenty of evidence to see.

I surrender, bring back the crap from last season and still get relegated.

The team go a goal down in 37 secs, go down to 10 men on 30 mins, get back in the game, then the linesman misses Stewart already a yard offside running behind the defence before the freekick is taken and lets him score. We then have to attack with only 10 men, of course we are going to leave gaps. I thought the team was brilliant, their heads didn't drop, they tried until the end. They played good football, the goal was outstanding, they created chances whilst Kelvin Davis had a great game. It's a good job they didn't have the benefit of the hindsight, possessed by the negatives, or they wouldn't have got out of bed this morning. There is far too much unwarranted negative criticism, by some who clearly haven't a clue, as to the club's predicament, we have only one team. All the negative binding isn't going to change a thing.

Ladesma isn't playing tomorrow.

Inflation in Zimbabwe given as 11million%.

I saw him have an even worse game v Watford at right back, when we were hammered in back to back legs in the league cup.

That sounds just about right, I think Cork is pushing for a start, maybe at right back or midfield, I think he is not good enough in the air yet and would put Lancashire in front of him alongside Perry. Although I wouldn't be surprised if Thomas plays alongside Perry. In any event Svennson was only going to play against either QPR or Ipswich.

Mind you, he did well in the second half v Stoke and Thomas was at fault for the goals. At 16 he looks pretty big and physical. He didn't seemed phased at all against Stoke, when their main tactic was Delap's throw and route one into the box.

When he came out of the youth team he seemed a pretty good keeper. I seemed to remember he had a bad injury and was never as good after. In any event it would be a bonus if Davis managed to punch the ball clear sometimes. At Exeter, Schneiderlin and Wooten swapped after half time and it improved the passing. As much missing Schneiderlin in midfield, as Wooten playing well at the back .

His last two lines are spot on.

Tony Godfrey could catch crosses, I think Davis and Katalinic were similar but most of the others were better than Davis. Certainly many of the youngsters would have flourished in the 60's, 70's and 80's if introduced piecemeal into some of the good experienced teams. Much like Paine, Sydenham, Channon, LeTissier, Shearer, the Wallaces, Benali, Dodd, Kenna etc.

It's better than that, Wootten and Schneiderlin can also play there.
