Game 34: QPR 2 Rotherham 1 (24/02/24 Smyth, Willock 16,351)

That third goal would have been lovely if chair was not offside

when we last come from behind (corbray mate not intended as an invitation to tell us about ur romantic life)

Take it back looks like was a shot and tidy finish.

Paal far too casual and needs benching. Colback and Willock standout performers followed by the rest. Begovic and Paal only underperformers. Great result and good for the group to come from behind at this stsge of the season.

2 great games front Willock. First goal in ages so confidence will be growing.

I'd love to keep him. Be a Shane to lose him on a free. Hopefully he realises we are good for his career rather than a money grab.

Love him too. What a brilliant guy. Humble yet still demanding. Just brilliant.

Must say, never thought of anything positive about colback when we first signed him.
Now, though, these past two months, I am finding myself constantly cheering him and applauding his moments in matches.
I think he is brilliant and a standout player for us week in week out.
If it wasn’t for willock goal, I would have given mom to jack.

As you probably know I rarely watch us at the ground, and therefore miss out on some details due to camera angles etc., but when we went to the Millwall game last month he was busy all over the pitch, and arguably mom. Makes the odd mistake no doubt, but leaves everything on the pitch. Easy character to like for me, ginger hair, red mist and all. Just lovely really 🙂

soooo much better in the second half. marti gives his reasonings for bringing on smyth and not only does it make sense but it worked out superbly.

second half was much improved by everyone, paal was still a little bit off the pace but not as terrible as he was in the first half.
willock had a brilliant showing today, skills on full display and he actually put in a shift for once.

will give a special nod to the ref who i thought had a good game, lino got a few things wrong (mostly in our favour) but i liked seeing the ref stamping out time wasting right from the off. didn't needlessly blow his whistle at every challenge either.
side note, i think the penalty appeals that we had would have been very soft to give. didn't see the one at the end of the first half though.

This lot might surprise us 🫰

Noticed he also pulled players back for trying to grab yards at throw-ins, another pet hate.
