Green says there is no comparison, in fact, to the relegation QPR suffered two years ago when, he argues, those accusations had greater justification. “It is a club that lost its identity two years ago,” the goalkeeper says. “The squad that got built and then destroyed and then rebuilt – it’s been fighting fires from that. This club has been suffering ever since then, whether it be on the pitch or off the pitch.” Green suffered, personally, in QPR’s previous relegation season after being signed as first-choice from West Ham United, and then consigned to the substitutes bench after Brazil international Julio Cesar was surprisingly acquired.
