Listened to Blue by Joni Mitchell after a nearly 20 year gap during which life had gone in an unexpected direction. Listening to it again had quite a profound, almost Proustian, effect on me where it transported me back to happier, simpler times. I’d never experienced anything like it before or since and I probably haven’t done a very good job of explaining the experience. |

It’s not a snide remark at all and I can’t see how anyone can take it as such. I’m merely presenting an alternative view for the sake of balance. In a way you’re going some way to illustrating my point. |

Legitimate questions are fine. Rooting out a negative angle for the sake of it, as some seem intent to do, is a bit of a downer. Enjoy your break. Where you off to, anywhere nice? [Post edited 9 May 20:44]

Firstly I wasn’t insinuating anything. I was responding to Dave B’s use of the word ‘all’. Christian Nourry is clearly a divisive figure. Even on matters that he’s been responsible for that should be considered a positive for the club people seem to want to root out or invent a negative. This thread is one of several examples of that. Of course we’d all be happy to see the club and team do well; that’s a given. But there does seem to be a touch of Nourry Derangement Syndrome which would mean some wouldn’t be happy to give him any or little credit if my hypothetical situation came to pass.

I wonder what the reaction on here would be if in a year or so’s time Nourry was regarded in the football world as an obvious rising star, had clearly demonstrated that he was doing an outstanding job at QPR and got poached by a Premier League team.
Just saying 😉 |

I don’t get this desperate clamour to know the length of players contracts. It makes not one jot of difference to me if it’s a one year extension or three years; there’s FA I can do about it and I’m not sure why some supporters seem to feel that they are entitled to know. |

Now that this season is over attention inevitably focuses on squad building for next year. Any lower league gems or players from any of the relegated teams we should look at? One player I’d like us to sign would be Chris Mepham. A suitable replacement for Ronnie Edwards, his contract at Bournemouth is apparently up, he’s had a very good season on loan at Sunderland, he’s a good age at 27 and most importantly, he’s a QPR fan! Only downside is I’d imagine his wages would be pretty high. |

Was thinking of posting exactly the same thing. A bit older than is ideal but I believe he’s out of contract. Would be good to play on the left if we didn’t get to sign Koki. Ryan Hardie has got a great scoring record but is in his late 20s and would presumably cost a fair bit too. |

I’m not sure it’s a fitness issue. Certainly an application issue which seems to have been tentatively addressed. What he does seem to need, and Frey is the same is a prolonged session with physios to loosen their bodies up. They’re both as stiff as feck when running.
Also, I’m still not convinced Dunne is off. He was Capt today if I’m not mistaken. [Post edited 3 May 15:47]

Chair not having his best game and with his ankle issue might see Kolli in the second half? |
