Consistency 12:29 - Sep 29 with 2870 viewsstainrods_elbow

QPR teams of the past (1982-83; 1993-95; 2010-11) have had it and been successful. Why don't we, and why is it so apparently hard to achieve?

One thing you're consistent at - painful, patronising, tediousness that erases itself from my brain as I read it, so full marks for that.

So the likes of Gerry Francis talked 'nonsense' then when he laid repeated emphasis on it, did he? No prizes for guessing who I'd take more seriously on the topic.

Some of the posters on here seem to think, because most people are by definition mediocre, there's no point in aspiring to excellence. Which is part of what makes/keeps them, and their aspirations, mediocre of course. It's no news that some of the fans are some of the problem at QPR, especially those who sport their whiny supposed realism as some kind of badge of adulthood/moral high ground.

Gerry Francis was never truly consistent, he'd regularly go on long losing (or not winning) runs - most memorably in 1994 and then in 1999 when he won six games in six months. He had a knack for those losing runs at Spurs though too. If he laid "repeated emphasis" on positive consistency, it was hot air.

He got 2 pages out of you all.

Anyone else see the irony of SE talking about consistency.

And you talk as if you're somehow not mediocre yourself!

How hilarious...

If that was actually true, presumably you wouldn't have bothered responding..

Oh and, by the way, the only poster I see "whining" about anything on here on a regular basis (mainly about how apparently "misunderstood" he is) is...(drum roll...)...YOU!!

Quite often as well as being a term labelled over many Rangers teams and individuals, its also often thrown in the direction of the match officials. Referees interpretations of games can be very different, whilst all operate under the same guidelines and some their decisions within games can be dramatically at odds with other judgements, they make, in the same match.

Consistency in playing to ones strengths generally is because the players and managers are of a higher quality. But, particularly in the Championship, any team can win, lose or draw to any other team in the league. Confidence also can have a massive impact - both ways also.

However, we compare to our goodselves. Some work days, you could say we smashed it !!! And other times, it probably have been better for all concerned that we stayed at home. Basically, we are all human and obviously extends to the footballing world too.

Next question !!!!!

In any sport, consistency is the Holy Grail. The quest for it is what drives coaches mad. There are many reasons why we don't achieve it, and some of them are understandable, and even forgivable.

But what I can't understand or forgive is a lack of consistency in effort.
And let's face it - Rangers have been guilty of that over and over and over again.


in other words, we are consistently inconsistent.

Players/teams at the highest level are there for numerous reasons. Playing at their optimum level and making fewest errors every game being 2 of them. Lot of players/teams can’t or don’t do that every game. Add a bit of good fortune as well into the mix.

The original post can't seem to tell the difference between excellence and mediocrity.

Quelle ironie.
