QPR 1:2 Wolves

After a moment of naivety and madness from Djibril Cissé, the same old mistakes reared their heads and cost us dear again.

Aston Villa 2:2 QPR

I was encouraged by an excellent twenty minute passage we had in the first half, because we used the ball well, looked dangerous going forward and that individual quality we lacked was there in abundance through Dijbril Cissé.

Bradley Orr departs

Once upon a time, you’d have been absolutely delighted to get a player like Bradley Orr in at your club. A dependable player who just gets on with it, and he’s been one of the best right-backs in the Championship for many years. He had an excellent season with us last season, even if Kyle Walker did steal his thunder somewhat, but Orr still played a massive part in our bid to win promotion back to the Premier League.

He has been a little bit out of his depth at this level, but not enough for the alarm bells to start ringing. It’s a case of needing time to adjust, but unfortunately he was never really going to get that time in the struggling situation we find ourselves in.

I’m sad to see him go, but I’m also really pleased for him that he’s managed to nab himself another Premier League club, even if that may only be for the rest of the season. If Blackburn go down, they’ve got a great right-back on their hands and one of the best at that level.

Thanks Bradley and all the best.

QPR 3:1 Wigan Athletic

This was a big win and three points for us, considering it was a bit of a drab match and similar in nature to our first encounter with Wigan, where we lost a game that could easily have gone either way.

I’m not going to be too hard on the lads here, because we got the job done and a crucial win under our belts in the end, which we really needed at all costs.

There was plenty to ponder about after this performance, with lots of positives and negatives to take away, but ultimately ending with another loss.
