    Have to say that that has put my mind at rest. I know attending a game and watching it on tv can give differing impressions, but having watched that game on the box, I thought both sides were pretty poor.

    I suspect that Gorkks will find he has holes in his pockets - large ones at that.

    This will be an interesting game..... Watford will be relaxed and out to have a good time in front of a party crowd......

    QPR will be edgy.... Warnock will want a win as insurance against a possible 10 point docking.....

    I think we can win this one.

    Danny to score to say thank you to Watford... and Sordell to bag one too

    And of course I will be there at the Vic will mlle yorkie.. in the rookery.. for this one :)

    We have nothing to play for and they still have - in theory anyway - can see a draw

    Queensparkrangers - I am a big fan of Neil Warnock and I am always surprised that he is so often disliked. His post match comments are almost always a fair reflection of the game and if beaten he is usually gracious in defeat. I was at Loftus Road when we won 3-1 and although we played well we never dominated and the game was won by some brilliant individual displays and a little luck.
    Our season I think came to an end a few weeks back and we have some heavy legs - if Malky puts out a fresher and even younger side along with an onsong Marvin Sordell and Will Buckley we might just surprise QPR again. Danny Graham will keep running and as with Troy Deeney deserve a change in fortune.

    You're preaching to the choir with that post. Domination or not, you very much deserved the win and could have had more! I do hope there are some tired legs in the Watford camp and would like to see us start Ephraim and maybe even Buz to get some fresh legs on at the start. Should be a good game whatever the score as unlike Derby, you don't need to sit back with 11 men behind the ball.

    I am currently going for a draw, but then again have QPR started to wobble a bit? Maybe a narrow Watford win then.

    Not sure however if the small Watford squad can be re-vitalised after two games over the weekend. Maybe QPR might just sneak it then.

    Will Warnock have those shorts out again? If so a certain Watford win.

    Could Watford be forced into a team with an average age under 18? It is swinging back to QPR

    I think I don't know, but I hope that all fans who get there will have a great afternoon, and for that to happen it needs to be a thrilling draw.<ok>

    One thing is for certain; Warnock knows how to motivate. He could motivate grass to grow with greater speed if he wanted to. I think he'll be able to turn the negative press of this week into a positive for the boys.

    If he really can get grass to grow that quickly he should have a word with our ground staff. ;)

    Watford show up against the big teams.

    We have nothing to lose here.....the players are all up for it surely and will be disappointed after last week's defeat.....

    I don't think QPR are the kind of team that would get a run away victory against us....I think a draw is on the cards.

    He's going to speak directly to the grass at half time, it will be perfect at the end we're shooting towards. There will be loads of divets in front of Kenny's goal and all of your shots - however close - will go wide.

    I do not know who Clive Wittingham is, but he has done a great piece, link above, "A QPR Preview" <ok>

    Well researched on Watford, or he is one of us with a good memory.

    I don't think QPR will take the risk of prolonging an appeal, if there is one. Although I hope it doesn't come to that. The prospect of Swansea, Cardiff or Forest getting promoted at your expense would be quite hard for a neutral to stomach.

    A £25m punishment (on par with what West Ham were penalised for securing Premier League survival illegally) would probably be right.

    As for the match, I went for a comfortable Watford win. We're usually amazing when there's nothing riding on the match.

    He's a professional journalist, and he runs his own QPR blog,
    we're lucky to have him, his articles are superb!
