Re: Match Thread: Middlesbrough v Queens Park Rangers FC
I've seen Dozzell play well in a couple of games, what a transformation, is this the same man who couldn't even pass water last term? But hats off to him, good win but could we start doing this at Loftus Road.

Did we really play in a 3 with Ozzie in the CB?

I think Cook was CB before he was subbed.

Well done Rangers. Great win! Bit disappointed as I had a tenner on us to win 3-0 at 100/1. I could see Armstrong tearing them a new one. As Barry Hayes says in Airplane "What a pisser!" Never mind, a win is a reward in itself.

Many years back I used to bet on the opposition, thinking, in some misguided way, it would soften the blow. I stopped a few years back. Idiot Me.

Don't normally bet on us for obvious reasons, but odds yesterday were something like 11/20 for Middlesbrough and we were 5/1. Given they were one of the few teams below us seemed a good bet, wasn't confident enough to have a big bet but a win's a win!

A great win indeed.
This looks like a team that will do well away from home, but I do wonder whether we will have the creativity to unpick defences at LR. With three home games to come towards the end of September, I guess we will have a much better idea of where we are by then.

Well done! That's what I should've done. I was convinced we were going to win. I got greedy!

Re: Match Thread: Middlesbrough v Queens Park Rangers FC
Yeah, I struggle with doing that but I must admit there were times when I've had the odd bet against us. Then we usually win!
