Thought we were poor throughout, with a few flashes of brilliance to see us through. Second half, I couldn't see us holding out, so I can understand Redknapp's comments. But if he's said we were poor, then that's just a low comment from someone who's probably still trying to blame Hughes for everything that's shit about his team.

Desperate man.
When they were gifted a way into the game they threw the sink at it after 10 away defeats but to say they battered us is total balls.
We could and should have been out of sight.

You just know Match of the Day will edit the game just for Arry don't you? H They'll edit it to show which team had the most clear cut chances, and which goalkeeper made the most saves. That'll be QPR and Begovic respectively. Couldn't agree more Dave, the first 45 Mins we were excellent without really being clinical, QPR were far superior in the second and are unlucky not to walk away with at least a draw. 3-1 flatters us, it really does. I'm happy with the win but some really need to take those tinted spectacles off. Sent from my C6603 using proboards

Bearing in mind all managers exaggerate in the after match interviews,battering wasn't that far off the mark. In what was a really poor game for the most part,QPR were absolutely dog shite up until we scored our second.We weren't fantastic ourselves but we were better than them. At 2-0 it should have been a stroll in the park but we let them back in the game pretty much straight away and for much of the rest of the game we were 2nd best. QPR were the better team 2nd half and if they'd equalised it wouldn't have come as a surprise or been undeserved.
I can see why Harry is pissed off but they won't get a better chance of an away point all season. They're doomed.

I wasn't at the game but when a team is 2-0 up quite early and lets the other team pull one back, with plenty of time left, then the team that just pulled one back usually does have the better of it as the other team are caught between the two ideas's and uncertainty as to whether to attack or defend.
If stoke lost 3-1 I wouldn't be saying we were unlucky. there is no such thing as luck. one team scored 3 goals, two more than the other, that team is the better side.
although at qpr away it was a travesty we didn't win by 3 or 4 goals

He didn't see the first half then? They were very poor for the first 45 minutes. QPR absolutely lifted their game for the second half and came close a couple of times. Football is still about scoring more goals than the opponent and they didn't. So dear 'arry: you lost. Your team scored only one (1) goal while Stoke scored three (3). You can 'batter' us all day and for thirteen months a year as long as we score more goals than you. You LOST.

If they had battered us you would think Bego had made save after save, we had goal line clearances, they had hit woodwork they were constantly putting in really dangerous crosses , we were blocking many goal bound shots etc etc but none of this happened !
Also if they had battered us you would of expected Austin and Zamora to of done a bit more than absolutely nothing !

These things even out, QPR were lucky to get a point at home. SJW hat trick was worthy of a 3 point return.

The Sentinel report of the 2nd half is at odds with what you appeared to witness www.stokesentinel.co.uk/Stoke-City/story-25954069-detail/story.htmlMaybe batter is a bit strong but we had to weather a bit of a storm 2nd half

Dave, Why would you be bitterly disappointed as a QPR fan. There is a good reason why theyhave lost 11 games on the spin away from home, that being that they're the worst team bar none in the prem. Stoke played at half pace for most of the game, and I don't think that Bego made any saves that I wouldn't expect him to make. He is a great keeper, if Arry expects the Goalie to let his team's shots in, then he really is deluded.

They were abysmal till they got that fluke. Did the ball go over the line more times for them, than us? I think the answer is no. 3-1to Stoke City. Naff orff Harry!

We were well in control until the Shawcross incident. From that point on the game turned. I wouldn't say we were battered but we certainly weathered a storm. Overall I'd say we deserved the win but it was closer than the 3-1 scoreline suggests.
QPR were awful, but at times so were we. Had we have gone in at half time 2 up, I think their heads would have dropped and the second half could have been so much easier. We really need to cut out the charitable act of giving stupid goals away and get down to being ruthless and killing teams off as soon as we can.
Still, another 3pts in the bag and another nail in the QPR coffin. Could have been worse...

Not sure about battered but they did have a strong 30 minute second half spell due to our incompetence.

Battered is over the top but put under pressure isn't. We were fortunate with the Barton free kick, an inch lower and it would have gone in off the bar. We got very shaky and retreated more and more into defence without the option if an out ball to someone with pace. This allowed them to push up and increase the pressure. The final goal was most welcome but in truth was so close to the final whistle that it had no real affect on the play. We were fortunate, not lucky, that we had done enough in the first half. Their goal was annother annoying lapse of concentration and they had lots of wild shots from distance. We were the better side and both teams deserve their relative positions in the table.

From the point of Shawcross going off I mean. I think they saw an opportunity to attack a weakened spot and went for it.

Even the majority of QPR fans have stated that we should of been out of sight 1st half and although they improved 2nd half they still lost it 1-0.

We should have lost, that's for sure. If SJW hadn't been out on the pitch we would have done. And if my aunt had a dick she'd be my uncle. Who gives a shit? SJW was on the pitch, and we did win, and we deserved the three points.

Up until we gifted them the goal, they were the worst team I've ever seen play at this level and I include Penfold's Fulham from last season.

Was just having a fiendly chat with an R's fan on twitter he seemed to think if Adebayor was playing for them they would have beaten us. I don't think they would. They created nothing from open play.

No they are clutching at straws Cobham. He would improve them if he has the right head on, but they look doomed to me.
