If I were another club I wouldn't touch him with a barge pole, but I wish he would go.....

If he is injured we may have a bit of a chance? I think without him we'd have won there. At times we'd be better with ten men

That's got to be curtains now, for sure.
I couldn't be bothered making a prediction before kick off, there's no point whilst Lennons in charge, just hope Dean Holdsworth has the sense to sack him on Monday or whenever he takes control.
With Bristol winning, it was vital at this stage to get the extra two points from today's game but guess what!!!!
90 fkn third minute and they equalise
Am I angry???

It happens so many times to us why can we not defend shots from the edge of the box. I thought when we bought Amos from them we had a good keeper but he gets beat so many times from the edge of the box WHY?

Our biggest mistake this season has been the sale of the excellent Lonergan.....safe and a great shotstopper

So The only dangled carrot now is to attempt to swap places with MK Dons, is that achievable? ? Not with Lennon in charge it ain't |

A crushing disappointment Their equaliser was shambolic. We should not be counter attacked in the 93rd minute. Feeney should not have given the ball away, we should not have over committed, Moxey had a chance to do better and Amos yet again made a complete mess of the save that mattered. He doesn't have the temperament it seems.
Overall we played a better game today in that with one flanker, Feeney strangely deployed on the left we were less exposed. Heskey was an odd selection and of course Dervite should never be selected but otherwise we competed well and they threatened little. In the first half nothing much happened. Clough had a spectacular overhead kick which stood out but otherwise it was stalemate.
In the second half we asserted ourselves rather more and in general controlled the game. I wish we would play like this away from home . Madine came on but made little difference. However we took the lead with a superb individual shot by Clough. In truth he was fairly ineffectual otherwise but his two moments were memorable.
I can't criticise Neil for too much today. He made the right changes at the right times. I don't get his faith in Dervite and Feeney and Heskey made no impact but the set up was better. Holding stood out as the best player on the pitch. He always uses the ball well and didn't make an error that I saw. We weren't very good today but we were good enough for three points had we not thrown two away.
Amos 2 ( keepers are there for big moments-he failed his) Vela 2 (awful) Holding 8 Dervite 4 Moxey 4 Feeney 3 Spearing 7 Pratley 7 Heskey 3 Davies 4 Madine 4 Clough 6

I see Neil thought Feeney had a good game. I thought he was on the wrong side and ineffectual.

I would add though that I thought the collective spirit was good. We wanted to win and we're cruelly denied...even if some performances were weak they were committed?

I suppose, to be fair to Amos, that ball shouldn't have got past the defence when clearly there was enough basic quality to run the clock down and also the defence should have pole axed Matt Phillips on his approach to the 25yd box, but having said all that, Amos was still crap

I'm sorry to disagree with you AndyL on one point in particular, that is re: the changes. As you say Heskey was pretty ineffectual so why did NL bring him back out after half time? What did he think he was going to do in that 5 mins before he brought Madine on, not that he made any difference when he did make his appearance, but more so the replacement of Clough by Danns was the killer for me. I said at the time I hope this doesn't come back to bite us. Trying to consolidate and see out the game with little threat our outlet up front. Why not bring on Woolery to provide that threat when it was obvious that QPR would try to get the draw?
Lennon was the main reason we didn't win this game!!!

Not sure I agree with that today, rtf . I think Woolery could have started as at Wolves though and I certainly think Feeney could have come off for Woolery or Silva. But then Neil will never withdraw Feeney.
I also think Derik should be picked before Dervite.
Given these qualifications the defeat is surely down to Amos today
But I do think the survival boat has sailed
