The Cat Posted 5 February, 2015 Posted 5 February, 2015 We got in loads of pubs by not wearing colours last time.
Sour Mash Posted 5 February, 2015 Posted 5 February, 2015 There is the engineers weld which is decent but home fans only, just don't wear colours. We're going to drink in the Churchill Arms in Notting hill FWIW. You mean the Defector's Weld? Decent pub.
Saint Garrett Posted 5 February, 2015 Posted 5 February, 2015 You mean the Defector's Weld? Decent pub. That's the one....name seems apt!
Sour Mash Posted 5 February, 2015 Posted 5 February, 2015 Both Walkabouts and O'Neills closed now? If so, I wonder if other pubs welcome away fans, or become the away fans pub.
Saint_clark Posted 5 February, 2015 Posted 5 February, 2015 Both Walkabouts and O'Neills closed now? If so, I wonder if other pubs welcome away fans, or become the away fans pub. O'Neills has reopened as something else, Sindercombe Social I think.
positivepete Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 Looking for a couple of tickets, pm me if you have two spare.
hypochondriac Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 [video=youtube_share;n5DjVm2t94g] Sounds like a complete mess.
trousers Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 Sounds like a complete mess. Indeed. The words "arse" and "elbow" spring to mind. Surely they're there for the taking with that level of dis-organisation...
Jack Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 They gave us a tough game at SMS. No reason to think they won't this time round. I'd have been more confident if this twitchy business hadn't happened.
Sour Mash Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 They gave us a tough game at SMS. No reason to think they won't this time round. I'd have been more confident if this twitchy business hadn't happened. Agreed. They've got some decent players, play alright at home and tested us a lot at home. Can't see this being easy at all.
Saint_Ash Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 Players who were frozen out by twitchy saggy chops will be in contention to play, Taarabt, SWP etc but hopefully they will be well off the pace. We should be winning this game really. Play like we did against Swansea but with Mane and Elia either side of Pelle with Morgan alongside Reed in the middle with Vic coming on in the latter stages to sure up the midfield.
Matthew Le God Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 [video=youtube_share;n5DjVm2t94g] The day before a game he admits he doesn't know who has final say on tactics or subs. The club really is a mess!
hypochondriac Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 [video=youtube_share;R9GiEYQ1YpA] Not sure they could have made that any more boring.
Jack Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 I can't warm to Tadic. Seems pretty dull off the pitch, and spends most of his time complaining on it, when he's not under-hitting crosses that is.
Graffito Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 Although they are at home, do we think QPR might change tactics, sit back and hit us on the break or hope for a goal from set pieces? Swansea will not have escaped their notice. If so, then the onus is back on creating and finishing and the first goal will be important.
niceandfriendly Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 I can't warm to Tadic. Seems pretty dull off the pitch, and spends most of his time complaining on it, when he's not under-hitting crosses that is. I think he is just shy on-camera to be honest
Jack Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 I think he is just shy on-camera to be honest I'm not sure that camerashyness is the reason for his bad attitude on the pitch. The Man Utd game was ridiculous, and not the only game where he's come across as a whinging sh*t. He's similar to another talented but lightweight attacking midfielder we used to have in that sense.
DT Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 I think he is just shy on-camera to be honest I think he is just shyte on pitch to be honest
warsash saint Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 I think he is just shyte on pitch to be honest The first 3 months of the season proves your talking rubbish!
Grigsy Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 Pretty confident for this. Should be a good trip with a near full strength side. Tadic to win it for us, after taking over from Mane as the attacking boo boy. Some muppet fans that follow this Club.

Clearly I was talking about the "seems dull off the pitch" comment. Oh Jack.
Batman Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 Hard to see how tadic justifies a place right now to be honest. Rather go at them with mane and elia from the start. Agree with that. Mane looked good when he came on against swansea. He would be a huge threat against QPR
Saint_clark Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 Who are QPRs first choice centrebacks? Mane and elia would do well up against those with lack of pace, but dont forget you still need someone to play the pass in the first place.
Matthew Le God Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 Who are QPRs first choice centrebacks? Mane and elia would do well up against those with lack of pace, but dont forget you still need someone to play the pass in the first place. Steven Caulker and Richard Dunne
The Cat Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 I hope Clint Hill plays. Elia and Mane would make him look a complete carthorse and he'd end up getting himself sent off.
for_heaven's_Saint Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 I hope Clint Hill plays. Elia and Mane would make him look a complete carthorse and he'd end up getting himself sent off. Dunne isn't exactly a speed demon!
Smirking_Saint Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 Pretty confident for this. Should be a good trip with a near full strength side. Tadic to win it for us, after taking over from Mane as the attacking boo boy. Some muppet fans that follow this Club. Exhibit A m'lord
Smirking_Saint Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 I think he is just shyte on pitch to be honest Not like you to slag off our own players DT ?!
Saint Matty 76 Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 It's nice/a bit ridiculous that a midfielder in his first season of English football with 3 goals and 7 assists is deemed underwhelming for us now. Definitely slowed a bit though and this is the exact game where Elia/Mane would be perfect, caused havoc at the end against Swansea.
Sour Mash Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 I hope Clint Hill plays. Elia and Mane would make him look a complete carthorse and he'd end up getting himself sent off. Dunne isn't exactly a speed demon! ANy worthwhile team news on QPR?
Saint Matty 76 Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 ANy worthwhile team news on QPR? Nothing interesting; Sandro & Faurlin both still out and Taarabt may be given a go with new management.
The9 Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 I'll say it again... At worse a loss this weekend would see Saints 3 points off 4th, a loss could also see Saints still 4th on Sunday evening. I fail to see how that would give us no chance as you claim. Seeing as you said it twice, you mean at "worst" - the superlative, not "worse" the comparative which is only used when there's one thing out of two better than it.
The9 Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 Any suggestions for a pub to watch the spurs v aresenal match before game and poss scouser derby afterwards? My train times mean I will have a lot of pub time in between and http://www.footballgroundguide.com/queens_park_rangers/ says no pubs close to the ground, have to go up to Shepherds Bush (which means a longs walk or buses/tubes again). The Westfield at White City has a bunch of bars at the end near the bus station, last time I went we had a good chat to some QPR fans about how cack Mark Hughes was after the game, they were all really positive about Redknapp coming in to keep them up, we put them straight... Can't remember if the bar(s) had tv with a match on though.
Leicestersaint Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 It would be nice if Tadic would score some more goals.
SaintRobbie Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 Sounds like a complete mess. Yep. Queens Park Raisons are going down, Pelle will destroy them.
brett24 Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 Would play Forster Clyne Fonte Targett Wanyama Morgan Davis Elia Mane Pelle Can see Mane scoring tomorrow.
dannysfc Posted 6 February, 2015 Posted 6 February, 2015 Lets just rip them apart & spank them tomorrow & am going for a 3-0 Saints win tbh and hopefully Spurs & Arsenal will draw too & am gutted to not be going as I love London away games so Come On Saints!!! COYR!!!
Saint-Armstrong Posted 7 February, 2015 Posted 7 February, 2015 Preview: http://www.saintsweb.co.uk/content.php?569-PREVIEW-Queens-Park-Rangers-vs-SAINTS-Barclays-Premier-League
Kingsbridge Saint Posted 7 February, 2015 Posted 7 February, 2015 (edited) I would play JWP ahead of Tadic purely on his ability to take corners and free kicks. Tadic is woeful with a dead ball, and at the moment isn't that impressive when its a moving one. Could do with a spell on the bench in my opinion. Edited 7 February, 2015 by Kingsbridge Saint
Kingsbridge Saint Posted 7 February, 2015 Posted 7 February, 2015 JWP not Tadic. Tadic can't strike a dead ball and repeatedly wastes corners and free kicks and we can't afford that luxury.
musesaint Posted 7 February, 2015 Posted 7 February, 2015 Feel we should win this but after last weekend anything is possible Sorry that 'Arry resigned earlier this week. It's wrecked Saints outstanding record of assists in post match managerial sackings!
Professor Posted 7 February, 2015 Posted 7 February, 2015 Expecting to see some variation in tactics today. Koeman and his coaching team know very well what was wrong last week, Koeman talking about a lack of sharpness in the area. They will have worked on that this week, so it will be interesting to see the outcome.
Dr Who? Posted 7 February, 2015 Posted 7 February, 2015 Now I have been very confident that if we play like we did last week we will win. But then I have spoken to non-saints fans and they are all predicting a QPR win. Now these are people that the rest of the season have been saying mostly a Saints win..... Now I am not sure why this is, could it be because we lost at home to Swansea? Anyway I am thinking away win, cannot see any other result.
Jonnyboy Posted 7 February, 2015 Posted 7 February, 2015 We will win if Schneiderlin and Wanyama are fully fit and both start.
Window Cleaner Posted 7 February, 2015 Posted 7 February, 2015 Now I have been very confident that if we play like we did last week we will win. But then I have spoken to non-saints fans and they are all predicting a QPR win. Now these are people that the rest of the season have been saying mostly a Saints win..... Now I am not sure why this is, could it be because we lost at home to Swansea? Anyway I am thinking away win, cannot see any other result. It could be becasue we've lost 2 successive home games yes but we lost those games because our midfield was woefully weak against robust sides, to boot last weeek we were poor in front of goal. Today we should be back to par so we should be OK.
SaintRobbie Posted 7 February, 2015 Posted 7 February, 2015 If we can't win today against rudderless and talentless QPR, we can't hope to qualify for the Champions League in my opinion. We've failed to invest in a striker. The Boardroom failed to gamble and dig deep. Unless Koeman can successfully retrain Mane to be the next Kevin Phillips, I fail to see the clinical striking power needed to qualify. We shall see though... we shall see. If Saints fans can hit Champions League on Soccer AM, anything is possible!
