    Jack Butland:
    - Distribution was good throughout. Aerial command was a bit 'flappy' and from the Ponty End he seemed to get beat all too easy with the goal but he made two terrific stops to earn us a point.

    Paddy McCourt:
    - His ability to simply 'ghost' past players is a joy to watch. For 60 minutes he was a class above but then*his legs went and his impact diminished.

    David Fox:
    - Went about his business very nicely and got the ball moving lovely at times. Didn't do anything special but didn't put a foot wrong and tested Mccarthy with a few decent efforts.

    Good performance tonight and a well deserved point. If we play like that again QPR we will give ourselves a chance but I still think they'll have too much for us.

    good insight. personally, butland's 'aerial command' scares me, and think it will cost us a fair few points while he's with us. called it spot on with mccourt. a joy to watch at times, infuriating at others. i hope it's just because he tired, and not because he just wants to always try and beat another man. thought fox was tidy, as you say

    great performance, but i still just don't understand why we're forcing a 4-4-2
