Re: vs QPR
 

well so far Symes has had 2 shots and both have been saved by QPR's keeper according to BBC live text. What kind of shots they were remains to be seen but at least he's getting them on target!!!

Oh and Kiwi:tongueout

Re: vs QPR
 

Oh dear - are Burnley about to be brought back down to earth, 1 nil down at Hartlepool

Re: vs QPR
 

Symes has had another shot but off target this time

Re: vs QPR
 

Wonder why we have started with 3 strikers on the bench??

Re: vs QPR
 

Portsmouth 3 up now :)

Re: vs QPR
 

We're playing the odds. It's far more likely for one of our defenders/midfielders to score. ;):)

Re: vs QPR
 

Neither team can gain control of the match, key player Luke Joyce - sky sports

Re: vs QPR
 

made it to half time, cant be bad.

Re: vs QPR
 

Well done lads - sounds like a decent first half, fingers & everything else crossed that we keep it up

Re: vs QPR
 

0-0 halftime.............tis all good!

Re: vs QPR
 

Nice one :rofl38: :)

Re: vs QPR
 

I have a bad thought who if it goes to spoy kicks will take them we are not that good with them

Re: vs QPR
 

Unless your an Hereford fan :D :D :D

Re: vs QPR
 

Love it - QPR fans booing their lot off at half time & apparently some left after 20 minutes - fickle or what :)

Re: vs QPR
 

What does EW call Teams like that "Billy Big ********" :D:D

Re: vs QPR
 

QPR have made two substitutions (one being the introduction of the very highly rated Adel Taarabt). They're clearly cacking it.

Re: vs QPR
 

:)come on you REDssssss:D

Re: vs QPR
 

Accrington Stanley just have the edge, key player Michael Symes - sky sports

Re: vs QPR
 

Oh, I'm so wishing I'd booked time off work & gone on that bus to that London - hate only having bits & bats of commentary

Re: vs QPR
 

:)just heard off Mick Schultz pitch side lads we're looking good:) on a sad note sky sports news large scale fighting out side upton park:(

Re: vs QPR
 

1-0 down

Told you about Taarabt! Apparently he was the architect.

Well I hope this game will be won/lost within 90 minutes. We need fresh legs for the home game against Shrewsbury which is more than winnable for us.

Re: vs QPR
 

Oh poosticks! Come on lads - you can do it

Re: vs QPR
 

1 nil down :(

Re: vs QPR
 

As soon as i type, i must be cursed.

Dam n blast

Re: vs QPR
 

Billy Kee and Robert Grant on .... Come on you reds.

Re: vs QPR
 

Robert Grant comes on in place of Sean McConville.
Billy Kee comes on in place of Peter Murphy.

Re: vs QPR
 

BBC Sport

League Two strugglers Accrington Stanley have dominated for long spells at Loftus Road tonight but they haven't taken their chances and QPR have just punished them, with Hogan Ephraim firing the Championship side in front from the edge of the area.

Re: vs QPR
 

Cannot believe it, that boy has finally got on the pitch :eek::)

Re: vs QPR
 

About time too - come on Chris

Re: vs QPR
 

Turner on for Ryan.

Billy Kee's just had our first shot of the second half. It went wide.
John Miles makes the second - saved.
Dean Winnard fires over the bar.

Calm down, calm down!

Re: vs QPR
 

Dingle's have equalised - time for us to get one as well?

Re: vs QPR
 

2 nil down :(:(

Re: vs QPR
 

2-0.

At least we won't be knackered for Saturday due to any extra-time nonsense. Well done Reds, sounds as if the lads gave a good account of themselves. Bring on the Shrews.

Re: vs QPR
 

Oh ****** it, 2 nil down now - sounds like our lads made a damn good go of it though, play like that on Saturday & it'll be 3 points

Re: vs QPR
 

2 - 0 :(

Re: vs QPR
 

OK who did a bit of a wee when that dingle fella said we pulled one back?

:D

Well done Bobby & Michael.

Re: vs QPR
 

2 V 1 Symes :):)

Re: vs QPR
 

Full-time.

Well done Reds.

Let's be havin' them Shrews.

Re: vs QPR
 

Full time 2-1

Re: vs QPR
 

Full Time 2 V 1, yet another good Carling Cup performance :)

Re: vs QPR
 

Bless their cotton socks - sounds like they've played their guts out, hard luck lads

Re: vs QPR
 

2-1 symes get in there

Re: vs QPR
 

Shame really we couldnt get something from here.

Re: vs QPR
 

At least a striker scored the goal - bodes well for Saturday. Bring on the Shrews. Sounds like we gave a good account of ourselves. Same team on Saturday please John and Jimmy.

Re: vs QPR
 

Good effort lads, nice one Symes!!

Look out the Shrews!!

Re: vs QPR
 

Proud of Stanley tonight; Proud to be Stanley. On Stanley On. Lets see tonight's spirit fight on for the rest of the season.

Well done Stanley and Symes. Done better than most Championship sides will do against a full strength internationally talented QPR side owned by some of the richest men in the World. Let's see these performances in the League and we won't have our league position to worry about.

My other (Championship) team has crashed out at Port Vale by the same score that Stanley beat them home and away last season.

Re: vs QPR
 

Despite the defeat, looks like the boys have done a good job there! Well done Stanley

Fact that our performance warranted a better reward underlined:

QPR 2-1 Accrington Stanley - Football News | SPORTBOX.tv - Nothing Inside But Sport

Symes' goal recognised as justifiable consolation by QPR fans as well.

Re: vs QPR
 

Well done lads. Tonight's performance was almost unrecognisable from saturday's. Luke Joyce was back in centre mid and looked infinitely more comfortable there, and Symes offered more movement up front, though he didn't maybe win as much in the air as mullin might have done. There were decent chances both ways first half including a ryan free kick that symes (?) nearly followed up, and it was certainly level pegging if not stanley ahead on points at the break.

QPR offered more in the second half with their sub Taarabt on, and stanley were on the back foot a bit more. We gave the ball away a little bit more than in the first half but were still very much at the races until they scored. Once the subs (grant & kee, and later turner) were on we created three or four half chances including a good snapshot from miles, but routledge settled it for QPR, notwithstanding a decent finish by symes for the consolation.

I thought symes and joyce were both very good, and turner looked dangerous when he came on. Peter Murphy did well in the first half though he wasn't quite as composed in the second. Jimmy Ryan came off because he was on a card and had been warned by the ref but it also looked like he had picked up a bit of a knock. Not sure about mcconville playing as part of a front two - he has some lovely touches but maybe not burly enough and would be better a bit wider?

Re: vs QPR
 

Out of curiosity was he wearing shorts ;)

Re: vs QPR
 

"Stanley looked the better side in the first period and played some neat passing football, with the dangerous Symes unlucky not to score on more than one occasion.
Symes pulled one back for Stanley with just seconds left, firing low and hard into the net, and the away fans sang their team off the pitch knowing they deserved more."

Hope this means Symes gets a start on Saturday!

Re: vs QPR
 

Against his old club Symes probably cant wait till Saturday!!!

Unfortunatly i could get to this game with not time off work available but would of been another great trip in a few days!! Looks like stanley put up a good account, very very proud!!!

Re: vs QPR
 

Oh dear but at least it does sound like they really battled for it... onwards and upwards....well tried lads

Re: vs QPR
 

better n i expected, please continue into sats game, wi symes. good perfomance by all accounts, well done.:)

Re: vs QPR
 

brilliant effort from the team today and we really should have got more from the game. Some nice touches from the QPR fans after the game as many stayed behind once their team had left the pitch and applauded the Stanley support, even when we walked down the road after the game (still singing) the massed Rangers fans outside the home pub put down their pints to clap us and shake our hands. Big effort from everyone today and it was a pleasure to be there.

Re: vs QPR
 

Yes, a very good performance from the team, loads of noise from our fans, and handshakes all around afterwards.

Well done Stanley :)

A good day out.

Re: vs QPR
 

Cheers for that Rob.....I liked this post from Routledge for England:

"for those of you who didnt go last night please read,

Re: vs QPR
 

Class video, a Police escort (1) lmao. Sounds like not only the team did us proud, but the fans as well. good on yer! wish I could have been there. Nice to see the comments and praises from QPR fans. to quote a certain Winston Churchill, "Never has so much, been owed to so many, by so few". Yes I know the official quote is slightly longer but I think it is apt in this case.

Re: vs QPR
 

"But as bad as last Saturday was, Tuesday was even worse as Loftus Road welcomed League Two outfit Accrington Stanley for the Second Round of the Carling Cup. Prior to the game, I thought we all expected a backlash from the Forest game and many expected the Super Hoops to put four or five past then team from Lancashire, but how wrong were we?

Stanley came and at times played us off the park. You wouldn't have known which team was from the Championship and which was from League Two. In truth they deserved to be going into the hat for the next round but as we've seen ourselves already this season, you don't always get what you deserve"

Re: vs QPR
 

Magilton in inverview with PFA's Ian Clarkson:

Source QPR Unofficial Fans' Site

"Q: What were your thoughts on the midweek victory over Accrington Stanley?

A: They out-played us totally in the first half, we picked up second half, we had to because we could not have been much worse.

I will stand and defend my players without a shadow of a doubt but that first half you just cannot defend, you simply cannot defend it. It was not good enough.

It was not good enough for us, the standards we set, and especially the standards the players set. I will defend them when it is right to defend them but you cannot defend that."

Re: vs QPR
 

Well done to Alan martin getting in scotland u21 squad, but bad becuase he wont be in the squad next saturday to play bury and might not be for oldham on tuesday, Jimmy Ryan still not picked of ireland u21 feel gutted for him quality player.

Re: vs QPR
 

what a pain in the arse!!! Had we got through we'd have played Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. Gutted

Re: vs QPR
 

Oh no we wouldn't. Had we got through the balls would have come out differently and we'd have got Port Vale:D
