After Saturdays defeat Dowie was down
to the bare bones with Ephraim and Di Carmine the latest to join
Vine and co in the treatment room. Radek Cerny made his debut in
goal behind a back four of Ramage, Stewart, Hall and Delaney. Gareth
Ainsworth started on the right with Leigterwood making is first
start of pre season alongside Mahon in midfield. Ledesma started
on the left with Balanta and Agyemang up front.
The official web site made it sound
like QPR played Kilmarnock off the pitch and could have won by 7
or 8 goals. The truth was Rangers missed far too many chances but
never that impressed against the Scottish side. Once again poor
marking from a corner gave the home side a free header and just
like on Saturday it resulted in a goal.
Agyemang missed the best of rangers
chances and Ledesma was again the pick of the bunch for QPR. Kasper
Gorkss came off the bench for the second half to make his debut
for QPR after Blackpool finally sorted out the contractual problems
with the defender.
Below is an account
from A Kick Up the R's editor Dave Thomas who was at the game last
night and posted this on the QPR Yahoo Mailing List
If Rangers are still
'wondering how they lost this game' - maybe they should take witness
statements from each of the 134 QPR fans there, any
one of whom would be able to identify where our problems lie.
We did OK, at best, in places. The second-half was
mainly us - but that chronic inability to put the ball in the back
of the net was again in evidence.
Agyemang? Dear oh dear.
Meaningless pre-season result or not, there were
more than a fair share of long faces at the final whistle.
And whoever wrote this so-called report on
the official stite was wearing the rosiest of rose-tinted spectacles.
I can except that, to the uneducated eye, extended spells of Rangers
pressure (especially second-half) might have looked not too bad.
But to those who were there with Blackberries and those who have
to wait until they get home at 4.30am, but either way being slightly
more educated, far from being world-beaters, we don't exactly look
like Barnsley-beaters on the evidence of the Scottish games.
