I’ll have a chuckle with you cus we really are a shambles uto When sodje was on form and there was a bit of space to run onto the ball he was very difficult for teams to play against. He had two really bad injuries here though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look we need a championship quality striker to stay in the championship. If we go out and bring a league one quality striker in and next season we will be in league one. We are not meant to be building a team for league one. I thought we were meant to be trying to stay up. It would appear some on here not you Blue but others who want us to build a team for league one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll have a chuckle with you cus we really are a shambles uto In the early 2000's we had lots of ordinary players who were not really good enough, they were physical, they were quick, they put themselves about but very few of them were any good that's why we stayed in league one and two. We need championship quality players to keep us up. If we have £600k to spend on a kid from Crewe, then we have £600k to either sign a championship striker or loan a striker in. Palmer can play left back and when we stay up, hopefully worry about the left back issue in the summer. if we don't win probably in the region of 10 of our remaining 23 games giving us 49 points we will be in league one next season.

Too rite we did , you picked akpo out think IF he’d stayed fit he’d av been a different story? Nearly all the others round that time were poo probably shefki kuqi aside? You’re right about bidding wotever amount for the kid from Crewe and strikers cost loads more even loan players? Striker is the most important signing we’ll make in this window cus that one decision will keep us up or send us down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalthamOwl Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 It really is absolutely ridiculous that we are so close to the window closing and we still haven’t bought in the forwards we have needed all season. We should have had deals lined up to be announced as soon as the window opened. If we don’t bring these players in we are as good as down imo. We simply don’t have the goals in us to win enough games. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always said, our salvation won’t be about any managerial appointment, but more about what we do in this transfer window 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nowhere near enough goal threat to stay up. 15 goals scored in 23 games (lowest in the league) tells its own story and are the stats of a relegation season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be a step back in my opinion, especially considering that Shaw was one of our better players last few games. If he is brought in to replace Pelupessey as our starting defensive midfielder or to play in our back 3, than I"m all for giving him short term contract. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely you know everything happens in the last two days of the transfer window It happens at every club every transfer window I can’t get my head around it but I know it happens we will sign players just probably not until feb 2nd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gurujuan Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Was talking to a pal of mine who lives in West London. He’s a QPR fan, and he thinks they will get sucked into the relegation battle, because they have no cutting edge. They do have Dykes, Bonne and Charlie Austin, all strikers who have, at some point, been championed by people on here, as players we should have been in for. In fact we would probably take any one of those now They may not be great at this level, but you would bank on them getting enough goals to keep QPR out of any relegation battle. What chance do we have of Rhodes, Windass, Paterson and Marriott, scoring the goals to keep us up 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
