Conned the ref completely for the penalty and got the defender sent off, it wasn't even a foul but it turned the game. His running directly at opponents to get himself into the area was admirable, what came next was less so, but good luck to him.
Looks to have done well, this is a guy who could push on. Hopefully he will continue to get first team exposure in coming weeks. He already lost a lot of valuable senior football experience last season

Big test for Blackburn to see if they sustain a promotion push this season. Mowbury had them playing well and often up around the top of the table last season before falling away to 8th place. Brereton Diaz, whose been the main reason they've performed so well the last 15 months will walk on a free next summer. Feel like they won't get another chance like this to gain promotion once he leaves.
great powerful running to win that pen, very harsh red though. this kid was an absolute animal whenever i saw him underage with ireland and he looks to have kicked onto another level physically since then. apparently his hold up play was excellent aswell. early days yet but hopefully he can nail a starting spot down full time.
Good news for Armstrong that Michael Beale has turned down the offer from Wolves to become their next manager.
After the interview he did with QPR today talking to the fans he'd look a right **** if that were to happen. If he was on a nod and wink would have just kept the head down after turning Wolves
a down.
Don't think he's in rush to leave given he's only a few months into his first senior management job and especially for clubs battling relegation. Don't think he'll be short of offers over the next couple of years.
Burnley look like they'll be drawing their way to the PL this season. 8 draws in 15 games. Either they can't hold onto a lead or struggle to break teams down sitting deep hoping to catch them on the break for a 1-0 win.
Seemed to do ok when he came on after 27 minutes last night. Poor result for qpr. He’s very raw, a lot of fine tuning to do, but there is a player in there somewhere. Will need patience to see how he matures
Good cameo again today by the looks of it. Hull fans commenting that he could be some player in a couple of years with the right coaching. He needs much more first team exposure by the end of the season to get on that trajectory. Hopefully today will be the start of more minutes, although qpr struggling so not ideal environment for young unproven talents to be given opportunities
He was only ok. There was one chance he created himself that the keeper saved at near post. In the coverage I was watching the commentator even speculated that he could be subbed again after coming on because he kept getting caught offside and then got booked.
Hes friggin huge though. If there's a real footballer in him he'd be a great asset physically. A front 2 of him and Ferguson would leave a lot of defenders with bruises
Sheffield Wednesday and Lincoln are looking to take him on loan.
Armstrong is back in training, having picked up an injury while on international duty last month. He could return to the QPR squad for Saturday’s game away to champions-elect Burnley (West London Sport, 20 April).
Goal and an assist for Sinclair so far today. Yellow card too.
Goal
AssistPaul Smith darts towards the right byline and crosses low across goal, where Sinclair Armstrong is on hand to convert from close range.
A long ball over the top releases Sinclair Armstrong, who takes his time to assess his options before pulling the ball back for the onrushing left-back Kenneth Paal, who scores with a fine first-time finish.
