SKINNER'S RE-VIEW : CAMP'S MARCH

There were very few eyebrows raised when you voted Lee Camp as your QPRnet.com Player of the Month for March. The on loan Derby custodian is different gear and he was bound to win the award at least once in his spell!

Winner

   
     

Camp’s first game of the month was the disappointing defeat at Ipswich Town. Having seen his colleagues dominate the first twenty minutes of the match, Lee then had to spend large parts of the remaining seventy hurling himself around Portman Road to try and keep the R’s in touching distance. With the home side registering twelve shots on target and Rangers only conceding from two of them; it gives a pretty good indication of why I gave him my Man of the Match award. 

Next was the home draw with Sheffield Wednesday. Campy didn’t have a great deal of work to do but he did produce one magnificent save to deny Chris Brunt a second goal on the afternoon. 

The terms of Lee’s loan meant that he had to sit out the draw at Derby but he was back in sticks for the Leicester City game and in the first period he had to be at his best as the home side dominated until the break. His heroics gave Rangers and Nygaard in particular, a platform to build from and for the second time in the month I made him my Man of the Match. 

The last match was the agonising home defeat by West Brom. Camp was helpless with either of West Brom’s goals but in between times he pulled off a couple of terrific stops and they allowed Rangers the opportunity to equalise.

Camp’s form over not just the month of March but into April also has been the bedrock on which the charge to safety has been built. The board have to pull out all the stops to snap him up from Derby County in the summer because if we don’t, someone else most certainly will. 

Well done Lee.
