    Chong is exciting and awful in equal measures

    Troy playing very much like he did for us, shockingly.

    We did so well to move Troy on, looks finished sadly.

    I reckon Gray will outscore him this season

    Commentator talking about how 'the only thing missing for Deeney was a goal' and 'the goals will come for him no doubt' - Moon-man talk, utterly devoid of the reality of that performance.

    Troy's contributions:-

    1 useful flick on down the line
    1 hopeless 40 yard punt out for a gk
    1 pointless wrestling session with opposition defender, including a full slam to the floor
    1 chases through ball but easily outpaced by defender
    1 blind headed flick on nowhere near a teammate that rolls through gently to the Derby keeper
    1 hands above head clapping of Brummy fans

    He probably ought to as well.

    QPR look like a strong attacking side full of goals .

    Gray will have to perform well to keep his place in the team .

    Those were mentioned in the BBC updates, sadly all too familiar.

    BTW, this seems the best place to ask this as it’s about a game we played in the Championship, does anyone know the meaning of that truly bizarre bump to the matchday thread of our home game vs QPR? I googled some of the phrases from the poster RonaldEnawn (Enawn doesn’t even seem to exist as a surname) and they appear on a number of sites which look somewhat dodgy.

    A rare goal for Mr Hogg.

    “Midfielder Jonathan Hogg doesn't get many, this is just his third in 259 league appearances for Town but this is certainly one to remember”

    Hope both Huddersfield and QPR go back up, Huddersfield is a good away trip and I’ve still yet to go to QPR (assuming we stay up). Be good to see those two in the top flight instead of the same teams that have been up here and back up for so many years.

    Bournemouth fans seem to keep moaning about the officials - they should know Eddie Howe and that team they had for years has mainly gone so they won't get all the decisions like cheap free kicks.

    Unfortunately they look pretty good with a young team under Scott Parker.

    Sound like 2 good goals too.

    BBC describes the 2nd as a "thunderous shot"

    Huddersfield is the only ground I've been to that sell leftover pies after the game at £1 each as you exit the place. Top work and a perfect time to eat one walking back to the station.


    A QPR mate has been whining to me all morning about how dirty and nasty Bournemouth are. Old news.

    Quite- but apparently the ref was biased towards them though and kept giving QPR free kicks.

    BTW it was Keith Stroud who I believe was born in Bournemouth!

    Deeney still not starting for Brum but on the bench again.

    BTW what a strange name for their stadium - "St. Andrew's Trillion Trophy Stadium". Is this meant to be ironic?

    Doesn’t sound like a Chalobah thing to me!

    “He was left unmarked but Birmingham City players are aggrieved that Nathaniel Chalobah looked like he wrestled a defender to the ground off the ball to allow Odoi the freedom in the area”

    Shocking dive by Sam Surridge for Stoke to win a pen, which the idiot ref bought. You take take a man out of Bournemouth, but you can't take Bournemouth out of a man.

    Justice done - the Barnsley keeper saved it.

    Then he won a penalty.

    Fixed, conceded almost as soon as he came on, oh well.

    Seriously - has Deeney ever been an effective impact sub even in his prime? They should try him in the starting line-up for home games against the likes of Hull and Peterborough if nothing else.

    Several highly rated managers at vastly underachieving clubs are probably favourites for the sack race now - Chris Hughton at Forest, Nigel Adkins at Charlton, Paul Cook at Ipswich, Keith Curle (OK he probably isn't highly rated but keeps getting jobs for some reason) at Oldham...
