QPR V ARGYLE

not a good result for both teams to be fair but as we where down a man for most of the game i'm happy we got the point and kept a clean sheet but in no way am i celebrating that like some fans are. We need the 3 points given where QPR are and the teams around us catching up fast.

Very good point under the circumstances, need to cash in against Rovrum now and move into a comfortable mid table place before Wayne Rooney's Birmingham come to town-they had an excellent win tonight.

We are in trouble.   It's painfully clear from tonight we need a striker and a CB in January as Hardie has a penchant for endlessly missing gilt edge chances a striker at this level really should be putting away and Scarr is nowhere near the standard required.  But Simon 'property not players' Hallett has already told Schuey the wallett is staying firmly shut this January.

Didn’t know you had Hallett’s ear

No but Schuey publicly said recently there's no budget for January. Misfiring Hardie's only competition is L2 standard Waine which means we're basically without a striker for the rest of the season. Bundu is a winger.

Agree, agree and agree.

Wouldn't be surprised to see Cooper sold next month (but not for the 8 figure fee some people think he's worth) and I suspect there'll be a few loans in and out.

8 figures is a pipe dream cooper isnt an international or likely to be one unless he finds an irish, welsh or even a norweigen relative for example so he can be one in future. 7 is possible but any deal made for him will probably have clauses that if activated will ended up taking the transfer fee to that.

I dont see him being sold in january as i dont see it happening for a variety of reasons. The summer time will be the window he is sold in had he not have had that injury earlier this year he would have gone in the summertime i feel.

he has the height but his shooting isnt great and hes no cosgrove with holding off players to lay someone up for a shoot.
