    Of which, would you prefer to not see next season?
    The way Qpr have gone about things this season, I'd be happy for them to hit the trap door. I'm not a fan of Warnock, but feel he was treated badly along with some of the players who helped them storm the Championship last time around.
    As for Bolton, well, they'd just be back in a years time, like usual.

    I know a mate who shelled out £55 for QPR tickets, but for Bolton, £20. For that reason, QPR to go down please.

    But, I'd rather visit Loftus Road. It's a tough one to decide on.

    From a gaining points perspective, I think we'd do better against Qpr, just really don't like that club. Anyone see that documentary? It was rude, well rude.

    Prefer Bolton to stay up. Not really a fan of the way QPR has gone about building the team, and it would be nice for Bolton to end what has been a very difficult season for them with the worry surrounding Muamba with a celebration.

    Well, I thought QPR would drop but they've proved me wrong so far. But Bolton have every chance of a result away at Stoke, and I'd rather they stayed up over QPR to be honest, that documentary made me uncomfortable too.

    Whatever happens, next season's bottom three is going to be tough to call. I'm sure Saints and Reading will be confident of getting in to mid table, but there's gonna be a large group aiming for 40 points. I look at the current table from 17th up to 7th and think that one or two established names will drop.

    Yep, the documentary made my mind up as well. You can't run a business like that.

    Also who'd have thought that Wigan would be safe with a game to go? Unbelievable turnaround.

    I think the money that QPR will inevitably invest if they stay up would be a large amount. They have players who can perform in prem -Zamora, Cisse, Barton etc, so I think they would be a force next year. If Bolton go down what about a bid for their Holden player? Injured at the moment but a great player.

    Isn't he injured a lot? I've admired him as a player for a while, but he seems to miss a lot of games.

    Just want to say that the Blackburn fans who constantly protested against Steve Kean got everything they deserved. The protest against the Venky's is completely justified by not against the manager. They should have got behind the manager and the players 100% and if they had done that they may have survived.

    Perhaps Eagles could be a cheaper option for our wing position? Good player in my opinion.

    Yeah I like him. Definitely a better proposal than Matt Phillips, who I am so sick of hearing about.

    Agreed, disgraceful how they targeted him.

    He has done well for Bolton - despite their desperate position - and I can't remember whether it was this season at the start or last season at the end but he scored a few good goals (linked up with Holden well!) But I expect that only one or two players we buy will be heard of/from a relegated club. Scott Dann could be a miss - two relegations in two years!

    A point for QPR sees them stay up, and if ManU win, then Hughes sees ManC where he was sacked, pipped at the post by ManU where he was a hero. Great last game drama.

    Dramatic end, hurray!
    Although I'm appalled by Man City's spending, I don't begrudge them this title, they have entertained far better than Fergies reds.

    Agree 100%. Shocking really, Kean did everything he could. At the end of the day, its the owners that wouldn't spend the large amount of money needed in January.

    They put a clueless man in charge, it was like hot potato. Had he walked, they'd only have put another incompetent clown in charge. Right to protest against Venky's but harsh on Kean even if he does take a portion of the blame.

    Would like QPR to go down for the way they disregarded everyone who got them there to begin with. However would quite like it if they stayed up and got second season syndrome along with Norwich and Swansea, bottom three sorted then!
