Same 👍🏼

So what will Gallagher bring to proceedings? Even Chaddy thinks he won't score. Its dire up-front.

[moerpho]

We haven’t lost in the league since Rotherham trashed us 4-0. That’s 6 games without losing. Despite 4 of them being draws, that we haven’t been the most entertaining side and the fact we have injuries to key players it’s still a welcome change from Mowbrays february spiral of doom.

Don’t know what to think about todays game, but for some reason expext a loss or a draw. Won’t be able to watch/stream the game today as I promised my partner we’d go visit her parents today. Will be checking the pone constantly under the table as I suffer during dinner at her moms place, so updaes on here would be appreciated. COYB!!!

[TruRover]

Longshot but would anyone have a spare ticket for this? Live in London and my game just got called off so I can now make it

[Penwortham Blue]

Would have liked to have gone today, my daughter lives just down the road from Loftus Road but unfortunately Mrs PB is actually down in the smoke with her and so I get to dog-sit 🤷‍♂️

Ouch, good luck for today. I am hoping 'pone' isn't some street lingo for penis...

[Devon Rover]

Before the managerial appointment I would have gone for a Rovers one-goal win. New manager bounce, and all that, and I'm thinking 2-1 win for QPR. Would be fairly pleased with a point today.

[Northcote blues]

Heart says 1-2 Rovers

Head says 1-1

Fancy Dolan to take the mantle and score again. Perhaps Szmodics too.

Is that realistic?

Would take any positive result, to extend the unbeaten run and Jim mk2’s on the road lucky streak.

[Colt Seavers]

I can see 0-0 or 1-1. 

A dull affair unfortunately. 

I was encouraged by Szmodics in the last game. The likes of him and Dolan are going to have to hit some real form if we are to stay in contention.

Who knows? He’s been absolutely shite, but we don’t have anyone else available and Vale is even less effective that Gally. Which is why, honestly I’d just keep playing him in the hope that one crashes in off his backside, he regains some confidence and scores another 5-10 goals between now and May. He is a handful when he’s on it 🤞🏽

True, i'm sure grinding out draws with non enterprising football and snatching the odd goal wins is better than dominating possession every week and losing 1 nil.

This is exactly what we pined for under Mowbray, results first performances and stats second but we often got the opposite under him then had to listen to how happy he was about it.

New manager bounce, my arse. If we are good enough we will win.

Move Pickering from full-back to central striker is my suggestion.

After all it worked in 1963!

I wonder if they try stuff like that in training. Malcolm” Super Mac “ Macdonald started out as a left back as well.

If the comma was to the left of 'bounce' that sentence would have taken on a whole new meaning.

When did we get performances under Mowbray?

The stats say we are much more likely to win when Gallagher plays. 

Even if we had a fully fit squad, it would be a big decision to leave him out.
