Derby Match Thread

Thought we played well and controlled the game most of the time, just wish we were more positive other than Rooney hitting the post they offered very little and were poor but we have to put this teams away , agree a little bit with the chair issue turns back too often when he could really be driving the team forward, a bit more. Dieng is a big plus so far, Dykes just needs to hold up the ball better, but take nothing away, good performance and great result , please let’s be positive at Blackburn

Just seen the highlights and well done to them for winning (and live on Sky to boot).
Good game from Dickie and made up for losing the game against Barnsley.
Also well done to Bonne who has his critics on here although not sure why when Dykes hasn’t had the same given he has only managed to convert 2 pens in the opening games and nothing since ( but he has missed good chances since returning).

As for Chair getting criticised, whilst he hasn’t been great he is joint top scorer and has provided assists as well as being involved in a lot of our attacking play.

I do however agree that Willock should be given a bit more game time to see what he is capable of.

Thought chair did ok , he did a lot of closing down and worked hard . Still needs to know when to pass instead of shooting and needs to be more direct ... Worked twice as hard as BOS and he doesn't get a hard time

Brilliant win last night but I still think we don't create enough chances.

Playing as a lone striker is hard work and can cause the player to lose confidence in himself.

6 points in two games, we can build on this.

Ha ha , you were one of Bonnes critics last week when you were questioning his fee .Its amazing how quick things change isn’t it Stan .

I’m not sure about the 1 striker thing , Dykes , Chair , Dickie and Kane all should have scored .We look a more balanced side with 1 up front .

If you actually paid attention I have not been a critic of Bonne (perhaps questioning a £2M fee) but rather said that given the service he could replicate his scoring feat of last season with Charlton. Yes, he has his limitations, but he can score goals for QPR.

No perhaps about it Stan by questioning the fee you were clearly doubting his value to the club .I personally feel he needs to improve his build up play outside the box but no doubting his goal scoring instincts inside the box.

You didn't watch the Game? The way you go on I thought you turned up to watch us train.

So you say it’s a pity we didn’t gamble on Toney knowing full well we could never afford what Brentford paid for him .You were loudly beating the drum for Bonne , now you have reservations about the fee without any of us really knowing it .You do change like the wind Stan , judging by our results usually . By the way I think we should have gone for Harry Kane but I thought we might struggle to reach the price .
Firstly , We had the money for Toney from selling Eze!
secondly, yes, I wanted the club to sign Bonne, if the price was in the range of 500k to 1m. I still think that would be a reasonable buy. He needs decent service which I think over the course of a season he would repeat his scoring feat of last season with Charlton.

No, I don’t change like the wind judging by our results. I think Warburton is a very average manager having seen his performance last season. He lacks consistency and cannot change a course of a game with a plan B.

As I said before, I would give him a few more games to turn things around, but if he doesn’t we should look to replace him before the rot sets in.

I had hoped that he would have done better this season with results and shown a bit of consistency but it seems like it will not be.

No Stainrod, this is what I wrote about Bonne.

But you don’t know what we paid for Bonne , none of us do . Also consistency comes with time , especially with young players and new arrivals . You have clearly stated you would give him a few more more games , do you think that’s a fair opportunity for a manager with a brand new team ?

Willock seems to be matched wisely by Warburton. We should Look at the pressure Chair has on his shoulders before we judge!
