He has not had a dig at HR you notice, Jamie wouldn't be please.

Our poor away form stretches back much longer than 4 years ago!

Maybe because Harry is a small part of the problem, which I've been saying for months yet people don't realise what a mess our club is behind the scenes!

Also he does have a dig at Harry by mentioning no tactics in away games and the strange selection of a player last week despite hammering him all season and the fact he's not the type you need in a fight.

On the last bit, i agree with the point, but what should be asked is when Adel can play his first game all season, in a massive 6 pointer, when understandably not match fit and still be one of our best players on the day, why the hell hasnt the manager involved him before now?

I too am for HR, I believe he has brought in a young core of good players, he just needs to grow some and go for it!!!

I agree but who knows Del? I don't think it's a coincidence that Adel is suddenly fit in January, where he can prove to the world he's fit and available. Not even 24 hours after the game and he's running his mouth off saying just that!

Gary Neville....now there's a man I'd like to have a go as head coach

A rare thing you and I completely agree on Dave!

And I hope everyone on here who still thinks Tony Fernandes is god's gift to QPR read this closely. Neville shys away from criticising Redknapp as much as he ought to but the rest is very damning towards Fernandes. Who else is responsible for the total lack of identity, strategy or even basic planning?

He is right about a lot of things in that article including perhaps playing 442 in away games.
They are not good enough to play a defensive game away from home.

QPR used to have a decent away record although nothing fantastic and even under Warnock in the Premiership they managed 3 away wins at Everton Wolves and Stoke.

I agree that although his heart's in the right place Fernandes has not been a great chairman for QPR and still has a lot to learn.

Ah...... I knew you couldn't be all bad!

Neville doesn't even mention the fact that "total lack of identity, strategy or even basic planning" has cost us £177m of debt and counting (and that was only up until April 2013). Plus we only have about three players with decent sell-on value in the squad...

I don't think it's the formation so much as the mindset and the preparation.

I'm very happy to play one proper forward up front if it means Adel at no10 and two proper wide runners either side of him (Vargas + 1 other).

Now that Zamora is in such awful form / is injured / has been found out (again) there's no justification for making 442 the only option. Arsenal, Southampton, Chelsea all play with one proper striker and you wouldn't say any of them are defensive sides.
