   Why oh why did Dean Smith take off Canos when he was the best player on the park and then also substitute Vibe when he was looking to get a hat trick. I naively thought that substitutes were supposed to improve a team not make it worse. If we were looking to shore up the defence then Mepham was the obvious choice to deal with the aerial presence of Smith.

   The Sky commentators quizzically noted the attack minded substitutions, by Smith, during the latter part of the game.
   Sadly, he just can’t get the tactics right; a Burton type shut shop, is the sensible ending to hold a lead, with minutes to go. Canos looked good to see the game out and Vibe had no visible problems. The only contribution Maupay made, was to clumsily foul and get booked.
   The goalkeeper for Brentford, was inferior to his QPR counterpart; what a fabulous diving save to deny a stunning Canos attempt on goal. The BFC goalkeeper, looked confused and erratic, flapping at straightforward catches or punches. Not for the first time: his manner bothers me, not humbled by his errors, but a visage of arrogance.
   QPR weren’t bad, considering their injury situaction. Kept battling and doggedly levelled; must have felt like a win for them, a defeat for BFC.
   Oh, and QPR deserved a penalty for handball.
   Smith will not get BFC promotion.

   Got some sympathy with Deano. Bentleys fumble was a shocker which gave QPR hope when none was present and not the first time – think it is a cunning plan to avoid him being poached in the January Window! Watkins should have kept the ball a bit longer when he was at their end.

   Credit to QPR – “it aint over till its over!” Lets hope we have that bit of luck come our way.
