    Excellent 1st half very encouraging.
    All performing well, midfield looks solid.
    Cauley doing better also, staying upright and a goal.

    What a great 1st half for us. Good football, we’re picking up a lot of the second ball, which we weren’t doing against Luton. We look confident and look like we could get more. Keep it up you super reds

    I have just finished eating my fourth slice of humble pie !! - fantastic performance from the front line and midfield - defence not too shabby either - Almost broke out into "its just like watching Brazil" after the second goal- hope they can keep it up

    One of the best away halves I can remember .

    Great football to watch. All from us.

    QPR can't be that bad in the second 45 though.

    Superb half of football all over the pitch from back to front.

    Two observations; it’s not a complete surprise is it? We always had a performance like this in our locker. The mood recently has been as if the club has been decimated this Summer but we’ve only lost Mowatt and Dike really, and then Morris to injury. So solid at the back if we stop a team getting behind us, and we appear to be better at that now with Kitching’s pace on one side supporting Sibbick on the other. This is a team that made the Playoffs last season who are a year smarter and a year wiser. That’s why some of us weren’t reaching for the panic button yet.

    Our shape when QPR have the ball is immense. You need incredible discipline to hold that for prolonged times, but it isn’t just that we’re chasing QPR players down it’s that we’re covering all the easy options. Benson and Palmer have stepped forward superbly.

    Add to that some of the football we’ve played and the movement and positivity on the ball.

    Simply brilliant.

    Outstanding first half team performance from us. Every player is contributing to the team and we fully deserve our two goal lead.

    SchloppBall is forming and lets enjoy the ride :cool:

    Benson is a proper find. Top marks to the recruitment strategy again.

    Can we remember half’s like this when we have a bad performance and start screaming relegation like on Tuesday please? Patience is key.

    Absolutely loved that first half.

    suspect qpr will have had a roasting, but the silent crowd and timid nature of qpr in their own half says everything so far.

    weather the initial storm, push for a third and kill the spirit.

    outstanding performance so far.

    Fantastic 45.

    The press is back. They couldn’t deal with it.

    Long 45 to go but this has been much, much better.
