Weekend Football 22/23 October

[Simon's Church]

Don't think this will end with 20 on the pitch

[sandman]

Taarabt, what a tw@t.

[sandman]

QPR really need to take better care of the ball.

[Schards#2]

QPR were 30 something to 1 to win today - so guess who had a little punt?! (clue: it wasn't me)

TMD won't be gloating for a while I suspect and, hopefully, Kes will disappear...

Not to win the game they weren't.

8/1 to win before the start of play on Coral.

Rubbish reporting by RL.

It was 36/1 for 1-0 QPR, and 95/1 for 2-0, both of which i'm on.

And it's all Chelsea atm

[sandman]

Wright-Phillips is an idiot, 30 next week and showing all the experience of an under 12 school boy.

[cmonurz]

Cech, Mata and Sturridge (the latter two played only a half) the only Chelsea starters not booked or sent off.

[No Fixed Abode]

No chance when it's 12 v 9.

[FiNeRaIn]

1-0 is a poor result for QPR.

[sandman]

Is Cech actually able to head the ball without killing himself?

[cmonurz]

1-0 is a poor result for QPR.

Yeah, only a win over Chelsea when you are expected to be relegated. Damn.

No-one will be counting how they won if they stay up, and three points against Chelsea is a bonus.

[No Fixed Abode]

MOTM for QPR - Chris Foy.

[cmonurz]

MOTM for QPR - Chris Foy.

CheLOLseaLOLOL.

[sandman]

MOTM for QPR - Chris Foy.

Bitter.

CheLOLseaLOLOL.

Still 4 points above you m8.

[sandman]

How many European Cups ahead of them are you?

[Alan Partridge]

I hate Chelsea, I hate everything they stand for and I hate nearly all of their players BUT they got murked today.

Never a penalty, how many times do you see a ball trickling out of play and the defender just barges a striker and it's 'good defending' and a goal kick? Nearly every game at least once. It wasn't a lot different, ball going nowhere, yes Luiz was stupid to even challenge the guy but he's not pushed him, he's not tripped him he's bumped into him more than anything just like defenders do in every game, the referee is in a terrible position and just gives in to the crowd screaming for a penalty.

The first red card was equally awful, there is no way SWP is out pacing or out muscling Bosingwa to the ball, not these days. On a slippery surface both of them are pulling each others shirt and for me Bosingwa wins that race every time. They both go down it's not even a foul by Bosingwa, to get sent off is just ridiculous.

Drogba's definite red the bloke's a moron.

Taarabt is a complete disgrace and I wouldn't have him within 100miles of the club if I was Warnock. He'd be the first out the door. They are beating Chelsea at home he gets taken off and acts like a c**t....AGAIN. He hasn't 'won' them a single game this season but I bet he's cost them a few. The bloke isn't as good as he thinks he is and he's been shown up in the Premiership for exactly that.

I thought QPR were wretched, I've seen them 3 or 4 times this season and in every game they are clueless. They did defend relatively well in fairness although Anelka should have scored and they got away with a blatant foul on Lampard which was a penalty and was a sending off for denying a goalscoring opportunity but in possession against 9 they gave it away for fun, created nothing and to be honest were completely outplayed by Chelsea's 9. On the evidence I've seen QPR are definitely going down and Chelsea were very hard done by today.

Didn't realise you were a Liverpool fan too?

Agree with all this AP. A good summary. Nice to see a fair and non blinkered view.

[Friday's Legacy]

what a fantastic sunday!

city pulling out a comfortable lead early doors and some easy looking fixtures coming up. good to see the usual two losing pace at the top.

[Compo's Hat]

Chelsea need to bring on Kevin Prince Boateng at half-time.

Was going to save this for the Euro thread after tonight's Serie A game but that comeback has added to a brilliant day of football.
