    Reminded me of a young Carl Tiler, but surprisingly better on the ball.

    Some immense performances all over the pitch, notably Hourihane and Scowen as a pairing, but also Kent and Watkins but **** me the Roberstsnaut was outstanding.

    Only lost one header all game and swept up many attacking situations.

    Proud Red.

    Exactly the conversation our group had at half time - the comparison to Tiler. Absolute powerhouse performance.

    Was superb, but really wasn't good on the ball, but that's not his job.

    Carl Tiler's transfer bought us the East Stand, younger viewers... :D

    Personally I thought it was one of Scowen's poorer performances.

    I thought he did alright mate, tough in a middle 2 against the quality of the opposition and with an extra bod in there. I'm just a positive lovely person at the moment and I love being a red.

    Got to agree. Broke down play well but gave the ball away too often. As did Mawson on a couple of occasions today.

    Personally thought Josh was excellent, his early ball-winning grabbed midfield and he provided the platform and cover throughout for Conor to maraud and demonstrate his immense talents. What they did today they did as a pair.

    Agree that he broke down play very well, but expect him to do more with the ball when he has it. Gave it away cheaply several times.

    It'll all come together.

    We won today 2-0, should have won by more, and there are plenty of players who can and will improve, the team will gel more and more.

    I would say today has been a bloody good day. 3 points against QPR, Couple of great signings in the next week or two, and I'd say it's been a good start!

    I liked the chant directed at Shackell in the second half, "You're just a **** Marc Roberts!":D

    Absolutely! Didn't mean to sound like I was writing anyone off, especially not Scowen. Brilliant day out today and all the lads deserve all the credit they get.
