Reply | Ronnie returns, but is it the handsome deal QPR hope? – Signing
at 22:12 9 Jan 2026
Informative, well-argued, and nicely written piece. I'm intrigued to know what sauces have passed on the contractual situation re first team players when QPR are more guarded about the topic than a Prince Andrew Newsnight interview. (Though presumably said sauces are even more guarded.)
Though on balance I'm pleased to have him back in the building, I share some of the equivocations, especially given the high-end fee, in which connection it's also instructive to note the rather mixed set of ratings awarded by LfW during his loan spell.
I do think, however, that this is a position we've needed to strengthen at least as urgently as full-back, centre mid, or, now, up front. Only Sheffield Wednesday have let in more goals than us, and though that can't all be put down to the defence, it does suggest that we're rather bad at, uh, defending.
Welcome to our odd, lovable, and maddening little cave, and I hope very much that you'll da doo Ron Ron Ron, da doo Ron Ron. |

if Edwards is incoming, JCS should/will probably be outgoing. He's played 60 games in 3.5 years, and can't go on. In my view, the club should be taking a view of it, and offering him terms ot cancel his contract. Perhaps he can kickstart his career at a lower level. It's a shame, as he's talented of course. |

According to one view on here, I'm apparently less of a supporter/qualified to post as I live in Ireland so don't get to many games. |

In case you overlooked it, we got to Wembley in 1982 (and should/would have won it, had it not been for the corrupt ref). Our journey there that year makes it pretty clear how much we wanted it, I should have thought. |

You're a better man than me. I neither understand nor respect it. In fact, I spit on it. |

Your forensic need to hold me to standards of scrupulous consistency you don't apply to anyone else on something as inconsequential as a football message board is strangely touching in the end, Northern - not least because I'm sure you don't intend it to be.
See my previous reply. If it's rationality thou seekst from a football fan - especially this one - I don't what to tell you. In the end, we all succumb to absurdity - it's just that some are too po-faced to see it. [Post edited 6 Jan 10:19]

I don't think I ever excluded myself from the idea that all fans are mugs, Northern. I'm a fan, so it has to follow. It's not a paradox, by the way. It's a flagrant, sickening contradiction - and (here's the newsflash) I'm a contradiction too. There's no therapy for it. That's what fan love is, what I am. It's not healthy.
Anyway, thank god for the non-contradictory, shadowless, sorted ones, looking down from a hooped Olympus on little men like me. I am un/worthy. [Post edited 6 Jan 10:09]

And we all know how this tends to end, sadly. |

JS said afterwards that he'd been on the grass for a week or two, but just not done many sessions. Hence, he asked him if he needed to come off toward the end, but fortunately he didn't. |

I'm certainly bored of you - how sad are you to try to belittle people you don't even know! |

If we could take out Varane (prederably permanently), play Field in his best role as a shield, and push Madsen further forward, I think that would be good. |

They know 9,000 of us are coming. The team JS puts out will tell us a lot about what he really thinks of the fanbase. [Post edited 6 Jan 0:15]

I've taken that data from Transfer Markt, Wiki, and included sub apps, and talk to me first/ get your own facts right before you try to bpatronise me.
Far more important than your tediousness is we have a talent on our books if we handle him right. [Post edited 6 Jan 0:02]

As I'll unusually be in the UK for our FA Cup exit, sorry game, at the 'Ammers, I was wondering whether anyone who doesn't have me on 'ignore' had a spare ticket (and ideally two) that are surplus to requirements. Will be happy to throw in a generous tip on top of the price paid. Positive PMs greatly welcomed.
Thanks all. [Post edited 5 Jan 23:55]

It's actually 7 in 37 apps, in all comps.
His two goals, after he'd been having a terrible game, were really rousing stuff, and really dug the team out of what was a bit of a ropey 2nd half. Less importantly, he also shoved my own words about him on the match thread down my throat.
He's hardly got a lot of competition up front with the possibly outgoing Frey, but I hope he grabs his chance now he's shown what he can do. |
