    We'll win tomorrow definitely but then we'll go and lose the next game and the following one, it's just the way we are and that won't change regardless of who we get in in January.

    We will stutter our way throughout the remainder of this season, it's going to be a very long and tedious one I'm afraid chaps so you better get used to it.

      Jesus dude, nothing like having a defeatist attitude is there?

      I mean sure, this might be a tricky game, hell most games are for us this season, but repeatedly posting that they'll "beat us with ease" is taking it a bit far imo.

      Stoke beat plenty of teams at their place, indeed much better teams than us. And we were a bit robbed against Villa, I know most of our fans were negative about that game but all the impartial match reports had us playing quite well barring an inability to score (which we've all known would be an issue since Sept 1st) and some silly defending.

      On balance of the whole season there is nothing to suggest we will get beaten "with ease" by QPR. I bet they don't think it will be an easy game.
      I could not dig, I dared not rob:
      Therefore I lied to please the mob.
      Now all my lies are proved untrue
      And I must face the men I slew.
      What tale shall serve me here among
      Mine angry and defrauded young?

        Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.

            I'm not overly optimistic about us these days and haven't been for a while. I cant see where the next win is coming from and even though qpr dont have a massive physical presence themselves diakite apart, we look short of confidence, fight and goals.

            Redknapp will already know what our weak points are and surely he will set up to focus on those. We have our gameplan and its been the same plan all season irrespective of the opposition.

            Not confident one bit. Qpr win for me if Rodgers goes in with the same team he played against stoke.

              We're more than capable of winning or losing this one. I'm not sure what our strengths are this season. If QPR want to win then they will win.

                It's nothing like that time though. It's not great but we're not peering into the abyss, no matter how gloomy some are.

                  It's not quite as bad as the Woy days, yet we're actually achieving even less than we did back then. I guess the difference is that we still have some dwindling optimism.

                    Who knows where we might be in two or three years. Not me that's for sure. It could work out, it might not, and I can understand why people have misgivings.

                    What I was trying to say is that the problem is not as immediate. IAFN arose before Hodgson came in. Getting rid of Benitez was the serious mistake - replacing him with Bronto compounded it.

                    But the real problem then was the owners. Benitez represented the only bulwark against them and their seeming desire to run the club into the ground, simply because he showed himself capable of making players better and more effective through his tactical expertise, although even he couldn't work miracles all the time, hence his last season.

                    Rodgers may prove to be no better than Bodge and no more a judge of players than Dalglish. But even if that turns out to be the case then the club is on more solid ground than it was back then. For all their perceived faults, miscalculations and naivety, the club is not in danger of going into administration.

                    Rodgers may or may not be the man to lead the club into a glorious new era but we are not on the edge of a precipice right now like we were then.

                        Agree Neil, but is now not the time the owners have to really back their man and trust him with the funds to bring in the playrrs who will really improve us; the likes of Isco.

                        I know it would be a tough ask to get these players but that is where we need to aim, and questions need to be asked if BR ultimately keeps spending small fortunes on the likes of Sturridge, IMO.

                          Haven't they backed him with funds already though, it's not as if he was given a very limited budget £15m for Allen and £10 or so for Borini is more than most clubs spent alone.

                          I think we have to be realistic with the money side of things.

                              The club has definitely stabilised, it's nowhere near as bleak now as it was back then. The situation on the pitch has worsened since then, but at least we still have a club to support and we're still in the Premiership - for now. A string of a few wins and we're right back in the mix for a top four spot, but looking at our fixtures we must win the next two games.
