QPR fans on Twitter react to loss at Barnsley
Many QPR fans on Twitter criticised their team’s defending following the 3-2 loss at Barnsley.
Rangers had led 2-1 after penalties from Tjaronn Chery and Sebastian Polter, but Barnsley scored twice in the last 13 minutes to clinch victory, with Grant Hall sent off late on.
Manager Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink was unhappy with referee Darren Bond’s decisions – but some supporters preferred to focus on the issues at the back.
I think it’s safe to say we actually self-destructed tonight – threw this one away. Never mind. We go again Saturday #QPR #BARQPR

#qpr the loss v Barnsley doesn’t bother me as much as the lack of defensive discipline and ability to hold on to leads and close out games

Normal service had resumed at #QPR. Throwing away leads and conceeding in the last minute. Back to reality.

From 1-2 up w/ 5 to go.
To 3-2 down w/ 10 men.
Normal service resumed.#QPR

No meltdown but extremely painful letting a 2-1 lead slip like that. Appalling defending for the 1st and 3rd goals. Just a fact. #QPR

Disappointing result, the 1st & 3rd goals we conceded were awful. Free header & Hall outmuscled easily. On to Sat #QPR

The foul on Hall was blatant but the defending after that was non existent. #QPR ⚽

QPR have 6 points in 3. I would have taken 2 points in 3 so not that bothered to be honest. Defence the issue again! Standard #QPR

Not representative of what most fans think
This is a solid squad and a solid start to the season

QPR only really threatened from set plays I free kick that hit the bar and 2 penalties one definite one a soft one.
Reds keeper didn’t have a save to make we harassed and closed them down for 90 mins.
Trouble with teams like Rangers they think they are above so called smaller teams but they are not, QPR not a good side.

What a pile of garbage. Yes we lost last night, it wasn’t great but trhe defeat was aided and abetted by a truly dismal referee.
The real problem here, is the resurgence of the Negative Ned, the sort of suppoerter who is never happy unless everything is going wrong and they can bleat on about glorious times in the dim and distant past.
To all the Neds, I say cut it out and start supporting the R’s properly, or don’t bother coming back. The club and the players do not need idiots sniping at them just because we lost one game!
