QPR- Planning Starts Now


With relegation confirmed weeks back Harry Redknapp and QPR have to start planning for the Championship now. With a host of players to get rid of and basically bringing in a new team Redknapp has his work cut out.


  First thing he will want to do is get out the rubbish that Mark Hughes left us with. The likes of Mbia, Park Granero and Zamora to name a few have to go. Also Bosingwa can’t ever play for QPR again after the toxic reaction he got off the home fans in the last game. We will lose Remy as he has showed he can score goals in the Premier League. Townsend future lies elsewhere too unless Levy is feeling kind & will loan him back to us for 6 months. Hoilett will worm his way to another club while Bothroyd and Jenas I feel will get shipped out to ease the wage bill. So what’s left? Whose left? Will Barton come back? Maybe, but will he want to, probably not. The facts are were in a fine mess.


 The parachute payment cash will help and give us some leeway bringing in some decent players. Its clear Harry will mix it up but we need a fast start. After having being beaten so much in the Premier League a slow start will be horrendous. We don’t want to have a losing mentality again or we could easily do a Wolves, so the first 6 games are crucial. Faurlin returning will be good, Andy Johnson could do a job in the Championship but I see 2 forwards at least coming in. There’s whispers of a deal for Dwight Gayle has been done, but someone like Charlie Austin or even Ebanks-Blake would be ideal, we need a poacher. Keeping Taarbat could be the key, he virtually won the league for us last time, he didn’t do as great as many thought in the Premier League but him on his day will win many games on is own in the Championship. We also need a decent central midfielder, a box to box one and a winger. So the likes of Liam Trotter, Dikgacoi (if Palace don’t go up), Mark Davies even Harry Forrester could be the type of players Harry looks at bringing in, as the big name big money buys clearly have not worked.

Tottenham 0-2 Liverpool (2019)

On to the 2019 Champions League Final now as Liverpool returned after their heartbreak of last year and they faced Tottenham. An all English final for the first time since 2008.  Both these sides came through some unforgettable semi-finals. Liverpool turned around a 3-0 deficit against Barcelona. While Tottenham came through a hell of a tie against Ajax.  Coming into the match Spurs were left worrying about the fitness of Harry Kane. Kane came into the game struggling but declared himself fit for the match after missing the semi-final. For Liverpool, no real major injury concerns. It was the start that Liverpool fans could only dream of. After only 20 seconds Moussa Sissoko was penalised for 'handball' from a cross by Sadio Mane which seemed to hit his chest. His arm was out in an unnatural position and after a VAR check the penalty was given. It was down to Mo Salah who was so cruelly taken off injured last year to give Liverpool the lead, which the Egyptian did. ...

Is it time for women officials in top flight football?

Can they run they line? Can the referee a top flight game? Are they any better or worse than male referees? Or should they stick with the female version of the game? Richard Keys & Andy Gray have once again brought this issue in to football. Here are a few for’s and against women officials. The Pro’s Women have become part of modern day football. That is a fact. At all levels they plan the game and in some cases they run the show, for example Karen Brady. They now attend more games than they use to. You see them in the crowds, mainly in the home end sitting down not signing but they’re still there. There’s no reason to say they don’t know the rules of the game, especially the offside rule as its now become very, very vague to what it actually is! As long as their adequate and have the ability to do the job properly and fairly surely that’s all that matters. Could this be the key that brings a bit more respect in to the game of football? The Con’s Can the female officials take the a...
