Clive Whittingham's match report ... Wells off the mark as QPR move into early contention – Report Wednesday, 24th Oct 2018 20:21 by Clive Whittingham Queens Park Rangers are just a point from the Championship play-offs after a second consecutive win to nil at home to Sheffield Wednesday on Tuesday night. Women and children into the lifeboats first. Another win, another clean sheet, another professional, clinical and controlled performance. And with that Queens Park Rangers left behind the warm, enveloping security of the sixteenth place they’ve sat in for almost all of the last two and a half years and climbed to the dizzying heights of eleventh. Steve McClaren’s resurgent side is now just a point away from the play-off places. It’s ok to be scared, I’m afraid as well. Rangers have stuck 20 points on the board in ten matches after starting the season with four straight defeats. Two points a game is promotion form, but there was a lingering fear that they’d been bullying a flat track. Birmingham, Bolton, Millwall, Reading and a horrific beer **** of a team masquerading as Ipswich Town – these are the scrapings from a particularly stinky barrel, and they’d come along in a clutch of kindly timed fixtures to aid a recovery from that record-setting start. Things would be different - or at least more taxing than Saturday’s Portman Road cakewalk - against Sheffield Wednesday and Aston Villa this week, we told ourselves. We’re not allowed nice things. The Owls arrived in Shepherd’s Bush with three away wins from their last four road trips, at Villa, Reading and Bristol City. Now we’d see.

Ha ha, just realised that this is from the official Sheff Weds page and the commentators are fans and obviously biased. Excellent. And so are the comments below by their fans.
It was the ”Sheffield Wednesday Edition of highlights....” no wonder, that they looked better than in the live match broadcast
Cracking good report from Clive, lets just hope it doesn't all fall flat against Villa...…….that damn thing called hope!!!!!
