Queens Park Rangers v Aston Villa Pre Match Thread

Without Gerald Appleyard I suspect Bruce will go into full on McLeish "0-0 is a fist-pumping victory" mode for this one, but QPR will sneak a goal, we'll fail to create anything in response and they'll finish us off with a second.  A bit like the Wolves game.  I hope I'm wrong though and it's another Preston.

I went for the win. Although without much conviction. I reckon our quality will see us through.

A very tough game at a difficult place to play. Not a ground that has fovoured us recently.
Sadly we need 3 points and I doubt we will get them.

1-1 - but it will be a good game to watch

3-0Villa.

You often here ex pros say that you can not give players a ready excuse not to perform.
I hope that the injury to Terry is no such excuse.

0-6. Orange Lee to come on as a sub, score the fastest hatrick ever recorded and then get sent off. Three  Trevor Francis own goals to see us home.

Heart says win, head says we’ll battle for a draw.

2-1 to us after a close game.

Dreadful ground, and getting out is potentially very dangerous with all the crowding in the narrow concourse. I'm surprised they got a safety certificate.

[Clark W Griswold]

Very hard to predict so I'm going for us being on the wrong end of a winning stalemate.

I mentioned this only the other day...shocking stand and at nearly £30 a pop too...

Full on 0-0 draw.

1-3

As always about the attitude of the Manager whether he goes there on the front foot (Barnsley / Burton / Preston) or uses Terry as an excuse to pack the team out negatively and hope for a goal to be nicked

0-0 written all over it

Any hints on team news / fitness?

[Dougs Socks]

QPR are just the type of club that we slip up to, and so im predicting a 3-1 defeat in the hope that my habit of getting results wrong continues!

Just hope people wrap up warm when down there, could be quite a Bruce induced sleep fest.

I guess Terry won't mind too much missing this, the personal abuse would likely be off the scale.
