Burnley v Qpr | Match Thread

You couldn`t make that up.

Commentator on Sky says Burnley fans calling us cheats for time wasting. Lol

It really is the best feeling in the world when opposition fans lose their heads and have screaming hissy fits about our methodology isn't it!? Silly Billys must have assumed we'd roll up, drop our pants and offer up our butts to them. Well I s'pose we kinda did but they weren't expecting that we'd fart in their faces though!

This result just made my day, i feel just happiness and relief! The whole weekend will be great.

Assuming Reading win their remaining two games we still need one more win due to our goal difference.

Lets take those 3p next week, if the team puts in the same effort we will definetly have a chance.

Its not over till its over, but:

Wigan can't catch us.

Blackpool need 6 more points than us from their last 2 games .......Millwall (H), Norwich (A)

Reading need 4 points more than us from their last 2 games ........ Wigan (H), Huddersfield (A), both of whom are currently below us and need to add to their points tally to stay up

Its getting close.

Also if Huddersfield don’t win either their next game or game in hand then both Reading and Huddersfield cannot catch us as they are playing each last game

For all those that foresaw that we might get a freak result today, I just checked back and we've taken 11 of our 47 points off of the 3 teams who were in the Premier League last season. That's pretty much a quarter of our points!

[KLOS]

I have been saying for weeks that we might survive dint of there being three worse teams and we have been helped by Reading 's deduction. So we have scrapped a win with 19 percent possession and suddenly people are on here claiming an inspired managerial appointment and a season of folly has been airbrushed.

Rather the sitting around giving thumbs up, the task for the club . if we survive is to try to ensure that this circus is not repeated next season .

[LoftusRoadLad]

Well we always play better against the top teams......be prepared for a surprise

There you have it. !!!

Indeed.

However, my only concern is that there are at least 3 teams finish below us.

Pressure is firmly on Reading.

With a four point gap now, they cant lose next week to Wigan or else they will be down.

we could be safe by this time next week if results go our way.

who was saying Rob Dickie was a liability?

best player on the park Saturday by a country mile

like ive said all along he hasnt become a bad player he just had a case of severe low confidence

all the back four were amazing Saturday

yes they rode their luck but thats the luck we hadnt had all season

that all said i still dont think GA is the right man for the job taking us forward into next season (but 100 per cent we stay up he will be given the start of the campaign)

Dickie has been a liability this season because his lack of mobility has been exposed by the defensive failures of the midfield in front of him. The defensive midfield are as much to blame as Dickie himself.

We really have two choices:
- Change the CB to one with more mobility so if forwards run directly at them we can defend better
- Except the weakness due to finances needed to update but bring in better defensive midfielders to protect the two CBs

Whatever you say about Dickie he's not hidden away from first team duties with invented injuries....like some!!!

Perhaps, if we could a 6"4' CB who was good in the air, good with his feet and was very agile, then he wouldnt be playing for us in the championship.

With a better team structure and work ethic in midfield next season the CBs wont get exposed as much next season and they'll have a bit more confidence too.

In our last 4 matches, as well as getting 5 hard earned points, we've seriously dented 2 teams' chances of the play offs and prevented the leaders going all season unbeaten at home. Glass half full.
