The Tanner Report: QPR 1 Fulham 2
My previous post, arguing that things were not as bad as many fans felt, proved correct with 2 away wins in a week and these accomplished with a growing injury list.
Added to long term absentee Lucas Piazon, and we don’t know when he will return, Tom Cairney and yet to start Soares, we have lost Floyd Ayite, Aboubakar Kamara, and now (with a dislocated shoulder) Sheri Ojo.
Fortunately there is depth to the squad and Kebano coming off the bench has always made an impact. There has been a huge improvement to our defence and last night we survived the Rangers onslaught in 9 minutes of injury time.
The international break has come at the right time. For Preston, who lie fifth, we should have left back Soares, Kamara and Ayite available. We are now just outside the play-offs with the momentum of 7 points in a week. The only negative of last night was the dreaded missed penalty syndrome with Rui Fonte blazing over the bar.
