Baptiste sluggish for most of game and looked lost at times.
Watched the game last night and just kept thinking Hugill will have a field day against there two CB Baptiste and Robinson.. Both looked very poor however credit to Brentford played very well for 80 mins
Brentford played us off the park, so QPR can't be that bad.
Hollohead had a right pop at the fans that left early. He told them if they don’t want to stay till the end, not to bother coming back. He’s on a slippery slope.
He has a point... Can never understand people who do this & spoil it for those want to stay for the 90+ minutes as they stream out and block our view

It's to avoid being disapointed and stuck in traffic at the same time.....i never used to leave until the end but not anymore....if we have pĺayed shit and are 4-0 down with 5 minutes to go....they're not getting anymore of my time....time..the most precious of commodities.

No they didn't, it could have gone either way

If we are 3 or 4 nil down I understand why people would leave early, but you have used the more extreme example there and a very rare one at that as I can name on one hand the games we have lost 3 or 4 nil in the past four seasons. But people leave early when we are drawing the game or only losing 1-0 or 2-1 and that I don't get. Why pay all that money just to leave early to beat a little bit of traffic and may also miss a last minute winner or equaliser. It bemuses me to be honest.

We got exactly what we deserved from the Brentford game. At 2-2, which we had to work very very hard to get back to, we should have took the point.
Never understood fans who consistently leave early, 5/10 mins from the end, even if losing. Surely if you're going on a home game you account to be there in the ground approx. 10 mins before kick off to 10 mins after the final whistle, including injury time & leaving the ground, so is there really somewhere more important to be?

Well they could be working, visiting a sick relative, need to get home to look after children or, any number of reasons. As long as the club take their money I doubt they care whether or not you stay for the entire match. I equally never understood why people think they have the right to judge on the choices of others.
I can see the argument disturbing other people’s enjoyment of the game but, people up and down to the toilet or going for a pie or pint or bet before half time don’t seem to bother anyone as long as they come back!

Absolutely THIS (all of it). Well said Joan.
Being disabled myself, I leave approx. 1 minute into injury time, but this is so I don't get caught in the rush when exiting (some folk do like to tut and attempt to push their way past, even when they can see you struggling with a walking stick).
What should be brought back, is the stewarding staff stopping all vehicles leaving the club car parks for 10 - 15 minutes after the final whistle.

It only becomes an issue when they fart and leave and brush up against you.

One or two people behind me on the town end struggle with mobility so quite rightly leave that little bit early.
Then there some who walk very slowly so as to see all the game whilst making sure they get off quickly.
When they get to quite a few the people's views of the game who have remained in their seat gets restricted,ending
up with a few choice words from some.
Think the stewards may see this but don't intervene.

I agree. If I have other commitments that day, be they before or after the game, I tend to decide not to go on. If I'm paying good money for a ticket, I'm there til the whistle blows.
And for those that struggle to get about, instead of leaving 10mins early, why not leave 10mins late?

So you agree they didn't play us off the park then

I don't. They were a far better unit. No question.
