Like I've already said. If we don't get promotion it will not be because of Wolves or Villa or Middlesborough but rather because of Preston and Birmingham and Millwall. In general Warnock can't seem to have a way to beat less glamorous teams who are up for a fight.
A top team must be able to handle all types of teams.
And I am one of Neil Warnocks Biggest Fans

I agree Annis..... in the summer ...we were crying out for a midfielder who could open up defences
he put his faith in Tomlin who hasn t responded..so he s gone with trying to put ball out to the wings to try and create chances..and teams have found us out. tan needs to give him funds in january or i fear this season may pass us by.
one good positive is the best defence in the division ...so far

Couldn’t go today. How did Tomlin do?

We'll bounce back Tuesday and go on to beat the Brizzles before the break.
If we win on Tuesday we could go back top as Sheff Utd go to QPR and Wolves are at Norwich.
It's all to play for
Sat Oct 28, 2017 5:05 pm
That s true.... but no goals in open play in last four games..... which is worrying....

I wasn't at the match either, I'm not sure that any signings in Jan will be to bolster the defence ( other than injury cover) likewise the attack, although it's a long ol' season and I'd like the midfield added to but in the meantime Bamba can wreak havoc in midfield on occasion but unless he is super fit it's not poss to do so week in week out. Tomlin for me can be the midfield engine if his head is right but after a recent/ongoing court case it may take him a few run.outs to get it together. Maybe missing a couple of key players today but with wolves dropping points we are still in the front pack. I'm sure Warnock is as frustrated as many fans about not finding the back.of the net today, roll on Tuesday, You are my Cardiff.!

If we don’t go up this season it’s because we are not good enough with no strength in depth.
Ward or Bogle not really good enough,no creativity in midfield and our once banker for goals ‘the set piece’is just not working.
Tomlin came on as sub so for whatever reason he hasn’t been playing (court case,living away,other) he must be given a run of games now.

If fail to get promotion its because dont get enough points in whole season no team can beat every lower ranked team at home! Its a competitive league over 46 games and top two who gets most points go up. Its that simple?

QPR 2 Wolves 1
Sums it up. Let's go again Tuesday

I like tomlin but I feel he may be a luxury we can't afford warnock likes the dogs of war attitude and that's why I feel he will pick ralls every time if fit I think damour gave us a bit more going forwards
Sat Oct 28, 2017 7:53 pm
Playing 5 defenders at home is not playing to our strengths IMO
Especially when the full backs are not geniunly wing backs
We must go to 4 2 3 1
Time to decide on 2 only of
Morrison , Bamba, and manga
2 holding midfielders and 2 wingers
A number 10 and 1 up front
I would go with
Etheridge
Patterson Morrison Bamba and Bennett
Ralls and Bryson
Holliet Mendez
Tomlin
Zohore
If they are all fit
Sat Oct 28, 2017 8:00 pm
What's the situation with Damour? We've stopped scoring since he's been left out
Sat Oct 28, 2017 8:22 pm
In this division anyone can beat anyone.
Look at qpr beating wolves today..
So it's just a matter of picking up points as and when u can.
We doing ok..keep the faith.

Don't panic. Its the championship. Goals win games, defences win titles

People seem to think we should beat anyone who are below us in league at Home! In reality every point is a good point in championship! We cannot win all 23 games at home regardless of the opposition as some expect us to do?

Agree with this, people see, to think because we got warnock promotion is guaranteed and anything else is a failure.

Tomlin hasn’t justified his place- because Tomlin hasn’t started or played more than 20 minutes.
Haven’t seen enough of either Bogle or Ward because we always play the same XI...
I don’t mean to dig at Warnock he’s top draw but we lack a plan B set up teams know how we’re going to turn up.
He’d needs to pull something different out be it formation or personnel

though I fear payback from the Wurzels!
