    Stelling said on Sky Sports yesterday that it was our biggest win since 2010, although I'm not sure who the opposition was back then, I'm afraid.

    That's the one Beth, Boxing Day 2010 ... Mackie, Helguson (pen,) and Taarabt x 2. The last goal was Taarabt scoring a 25 yard show boating screamer.

    The Rotherham goal was the best of the day.

    Thanks for putting the goals up. I thought two of our goals were extremely "soft". There was only limited contact for the penalty. In my book, it was never a penalty and I say that despite my bias. Luongo's goal was also extremely lucky. I thought their keeper made a pigs ear out of trying to save it. Nice shot by the Rotherham lad for their goal.

    It also struggles with 'colour', 'favour' and they have no idea about 'humour'...so really it is best ignored.

    Clive's match report ...

    QPR march on with easy Rotherham thrashing – Report

    Sunday, 19th Mar 2017 15:28 by Clive Whittingham

    QPR won at home for the fourth game in a row with a convincing 5-1 victory, sealed by five different goalscorers, against an abject Rotherham United side at Loftus Road on Saturday.

    You’ll have to go a long way to find any team, let alone a QPR team, winning a game by such a handsome margin as this while playing so far within themselves.

    QPR were beaten 6-0 at Loftus Road by Newcastle back in September, but at least the Magpies looked pretty formidable doing it. Here, in a 5-1 success, Rangers’ biggest win of the season, their first five goal haul since 2014, I’m not even sure QPR were that good. They didn’t need to be. Sporting a goalkeeper (Lewis Price) and centre back (Semi Ajayi and Aimen Belaid) combination that would have disgraced a Sunday league side with their performances, Rotherham were as bad a team as we’ve seen on this ground for many, many years. Had QPR played as well as they did at, say, Birmingham City recently, this would have gone well into double figures. As it was, they got to five in second gear.

    It was. I found myself applauding involuntarily.

    I noticed there was a lot of applause from our fans for their goal. I think that shows our fans have class.

    Don't really care how poor the opposition are you still have to go out and do the business and we did this time......

    How many times have we said that we are the team that keeps on giving when sides are on a poor run? We have been a soft touch for too many years, nice to put a team to the sword for once.....

    Anyone else think that our performance against Leeds is looking even more impressive as the games go by?

    To think we should have claimed all 3 points there, and we're the form team in the division. Little room for complaint if you're an R's fan at the minute.

    Antti's knee jerks.....


    A team hopelessly adrift at the bottom of the table. A team that has already beaten us 1-0 this season. It all had a strong whiff of Swindon 1994 about it. But for once, QPR did what you should do to poor teams: beat them soundly.

    1. ROTHERHAM: Who doesn't love a thrashing? Ainsworth announcing himself to us with an opening day double in baking sunshine v Blackpool. Dennis Bailey turning Denis Law's commentary into a disbelieving splutter. Royston destoying Luton. Adel annihilating Swansea. Bobby Gould forced to resign after a Loftus Road hammering. Byrne and Bannister v Chelsea. Mike Sheron having his day against Middlesbrough. Great memories all.

    Read the rest here......
