QPR Report >> Holloway's Post Match Comments > Holloway Happy After Derby County Win
It was a good win away from home today. Beating Derby away stamps our improved away form of late. Especially as we spent 2 thirds of the game down to 10 men.
Holloway is not happy with Furlong for getting sent off though. Agreed, Furlong was elbowed, but Holloway expects a player of Furlong's experience to be able to deal with aggressive tactics from the opposition without getting himself sent off.
Furlong will be fined - it is a team game afterall.Ian Holloway >>

BBC >> Derby 1-2 QPR > Derby 1 QPR 2 Result
Derby 1
Blackstock 84.
QPR 2
Ainsworth 30, Gallen 80.
QPR went down to 10 men after 34 and had a penalty against us, that Royce saved. We still won away from home. QPR's away form is on the up. If this continues we are in with a shout of the premiership.
Gareth Ainsworth got the first goal after half an hour, but Furlong got sent off 4 minutes later and it was backs to the wall. Sturridge was left up front on his own. Santos played well and found Gallen roaming forward and against the run of play, we got the second.
Blackstock nicked 1 back 4 minutes later, but Derby could not get the equalizer and Ranger come away from Pride Park with much pride and all 3 points. Very nice.
QPR now sit in 8th spot. Level on points with the playoff sides. 9 points off of automatic promotion.QPR Blog Comment >> Johnny Winterburn - We Are QPR!

QPR set to land Slovenian goalkeeper > Mirhat Redzic - Slovenian Goalkeeper? Mirhat Redzic - Goalkeeper - anyone know anything about this guy atall? Apparently a Slovenian goalkeeper who has been training with QPR for the last couple of weeks. Trained well enough to earn a contract. I guess Jake Cole will be dropped off of the bench. It would be nice if Mirhat Redzic is a better goalie than Simon Royce. Who knows?
I certainly never heard of the guy before. - "Mirhat Redzic"
Either way, welcome to the Loft Mirhat, if you are real.

Nygard is out. Bircham is out. Sturridge may get in up front against his old club Derby County - hopefully to haunt them. Santos is most likely to replace Bircham in the centre of midfield. Maybe Langley will be fit enough to get on the bench tomorrow.
We are on a decent run away from home. A win against Leicester. 2 draws against Millwall and Plymouth. Hopefully Ranger can return to Loftus Road victorious with all 3 points.

BBC >> Baggies allow Dyer to stay at QPR > Dyer Extends Loan
Lloyd Dyer has been playing at left back for the last month or so. Dyer has 5 games under his belt for us now. QPR left backs Milanese and Hslop are still injured and so is Matthew Rose, so Dyer will be staying and playing until the end of November.In fact, Lloyd Dyer looks like he'll be a better left winger than left back. Maybe Lloyd will nick us a goal or 2 before he leaves.

QPR 3
Nygaard 11, Furlong 18, Santos 42
Norwich 0
Attendance: 15,976
QPR over-ran Norwich in a strong first half display. Whether it was our strength or their weakness is open to opinion. Probably a mixture of both.
Nygaard got in to give QPR an early 11th minute lead and QPR went on from strength to strength form there. Soon after Furlong got on the scoresheet. It is good to see Furlong back in form. Santos came off the bench to replace the injured Bircham and proceded to kill off the match as a contest withing 5 minutes of entering the pitch by nicking the 3rd.
Nygaard is injured an so is Bircham. Sturridge replaced Nygaard after only 26 minutes and had a good match. Dean Sturridge in form will help QPR no end, trust me.
Rangers are now 10th in the league, 2 points off the play-offs and Holloway does'nt think we have been playing up to our squads true potential this season. A good day for QPR and Holloway sounded proud.

Ian Holloway likes to play 2 defensive midfielders. Some may prefer to call those midfielders combative midfielders, or even ball-winners. So, stiff down the middle and the flair and creativity out wide on the flanks is Holloway's want.
I knew Holloway wanted to play with 2 defensive midfielders and the flair players out wide, rather than a creative midfieleder in the centre like Langley, or indeed Ray Wilkins a good while ago.
Holloways latest comments on the QPR Official Website are the first time I have seen confirmation of my thoughts on Holloway's tactics for the midfield.QPR Blog Comment >> So 2 strong ball-winners in the middle and the flair out wide it is. Time for Lee Cook and Ainsworth to make a name for themselves. They may play out wide, but they are key players in the QPR side under Holloway.

BBC >> QPR 1-1 Plymouth > QPR Plymouth Draw 1-1
QPR 1
Gallen (69 pen)
Plymouth 1
Buzsaky 39
QPR totally outplayed Plymouth but only managed to nick a 1-1 draw. Not a good day result-wise, but we played alot better than of late.
Some bloke called Buzsaky rifled home from fully 30 yards a few minutes before half time. We were all over them, but could'nt find a way through, then up stepped Buzsaky with a wonder-strike.
The second half we were all over Plymouth again, but they were proving to be dangerous on the break at times. It took ages to get the equalise. Gallen swung in a corner and Scott Taylor hand-balled. Gallen converted the penalty easily. An assist and a goal for the captain would be a hundred thousand to one shot in my book. The 1-1 draw was only 8/1 in places.

I was following the match at the QPR.org live chatroom and the concensus there was that Holloway tried to get the players to sit on the 1-0 away win for the last 10 minutes. Obviously we failed and Preston equalised. Still a good away point. Real QPR V Preston Match Reports >>

QPRnet.com >> The David Bardsley Interview > David Bardsley Speaks
A nice interview by Ron Norris with David Bardsley.
Bardsley was the best right back I have seen play live at QPR. Dave Clement was before my time. Apparently it is close between the two who was the superior full back.
Bardsley played alongside Alan McDonald, Darren Peacock and Clive Wilson in defence. Jan Stejskal in goal, Sir Les was up front with Allen - Penrice or Bailey, Holloway and Wilkins in centre midfield, Impey and Sinton out wide. Sinton was sold on and replaced by Trevor Sinclair. That team came fifth in the top league.
Things have gone downhill somewhat since then, Bardsley touches upon why that happened in the interview.

BBC >> Preston v QPR > Preston v QPR Team News
Lomas will return from injury to replace suspended Marc Bircham in midfield. Nygaard is fit again, so too Gallen and Sturridge. Plenty of strikers for Holloway to choose from. Gollum will be pleased.
Preston are struggling with 2 key players out, midfielder Brian O'Neil (thigh) and striker Dave Nugent (illness).
It will still be a tough assignment for QPR. An away win for Ranger would make it 2 away wins in a row. Something QPR rarely achieve. If we can start winning away, allied with our strong home form, QPR could well find themselves in the Premier league next season.
Come on you R's!

Ian Holloway wants more strikers, or so I read. Sheffield United have more strikers than us, so Holloway wants more. I am glad Gollum is so ambitious. Holloway clearly intends to challenge for a premiership place.
That said, I thought we had a good few strikers as it was. 6 first team squad strikers at the last count.
Paul Furlong
Kevin Gallen
Marc Nygaard
Dean Sturridge
Stefan Moore
Shabazz Baidoo
Holloway must get what he wants, so hopefully Paladini will okay a new signing or two up front. I can't see where he will play them all, but if Holloway wants more strikers, more strikers it is.
I figure we have a decent number of forwards, if not the quality Holloway is after.
A top quality loan signing for up front would be young Rossi at Man Utd. The boy is in a different league to all of the present QPR strikers. I doubt if Fergie would let Rossi go out on loan, but you never know with sir red nose.

Swansea Mad >> Midfielder Loan Extended By A Further Month > Marcus Bean Extends Swansea Loan
Swansea have secured an extension of the Marcus Bean loan. Bean has played 6 times in the month for Kenny Jackett's swans. Swanmsea in that time, have been in great form.
Marcus Bean wants to stay at Swansea, but Holloway may have other plans. It is clear that Holloway plays 2 combative central midfieders at all times, so Bean I think should stick around. First team experience on loan can only improve Bean's ability to perform consistently. Bean has the ability, will he gain the edge one day? I hope so.

Clubcall >> Sturridige Getting Back To Form > Fireworks From Sturridge Due
Dean Sturridge said he feels he is getting back to form and felt sharp in the Millwall game. Good news for QPR as the injury prone Sturridge is due some goals because he is the kind of striker that scores in bursts when things go his way.
A high paced, highly talented out and out goalscorer who is not short of the ability to stream past an opponent, is what Dean Sturridge can bring to a squad if he is right. Of course, Wolves lost patience with Dean, which is no surprise as he was injured quite a lot. Wolves never played Dean when he was fit though. However, Sturridge knows Holloway will play him and has been nursed back to full fitness by the QPR staff. Sturridge has had 3 60 minute outings in 2 weeks. Dean seems excited by Holloway's faith in his abilities.
If Sturridge gets fit and stays fit for a reasonable spell and gets in the groove, QPR will find goals a lot easier to come by than in recent years. I am looking forward to the next few weeks regarding Sturridge specifically.
I am hoping for fireworks from Dean.

A good away draw for QPR against the improving Millwall. London derbies are always dodgy and the 1-1 scoreline will do me just fine.
