    i am in the camp there is still 18 games to go, 26-27 more points needed, looks a massive job to be kept up. but far from impossible, once harry has got his new signings in, march and april have lots of very winable games. 5 wins out of 8 is very possible.must get a few points before then. i know you have only one win all season(cant remember who that was against) you just need to score more goals, and shore up defence. i still think rangers can reach 36-37 points, just have to keep believing

    Thanks for your efforts FT. But there is more evidence that God exists than that QPR will stay up....... ie ...None.

    yes first half was very bad, second half i thought it was damage limitation.

    but if you get some good signings in, west ham won 7 out there last 9 to say up, still to early to give up, keep the faith

    I know you mean well mate but there's no use in giving people false hope.

    We're a total shambles.

    I have to agree with this. Don't worry about us FT. You should concentrate on looking after your own.

    We're going down. But will hopefully be back and stronger with a real team soon. Older Fulham fans will appreciate this as you were in this situation not so long ago yourselves. True Fulham and QPR fans will realise that, and in many ways we are not to dissimilar.

    i know were are in big trouble, big trouble. but i think we will be o.k just, i do not remember ffc in the top flight back in the 60s, but i do rememer qpr always beating us in the early 1980s, and i do remember us being 91st in the league and losing away to torquay who were 92nd, we probably had more away fans then lol, those were the days when we knew everyone. i know how painful relegation is experienced last time in 93 at swansea, real heartbreak, the difference to us is of we go down, we wil never come back up again, you will. but we are similar clubs, in a lot of ways, and fcking hate chelsea

    its easier to be positive about another club than your own, i think that goes across the board. my last word on this topic. i did say last season you would be o.k, i accept i have done my money, maybe i am just a fool who backs rangers, year on year and backed you to beat liverpool. i will accept any apologies in may when rangers finish 17th

    Well said FT absolutely bang on and yes you are right we have a right bunch of defeatists on this board. So much so that with each game its now a case of picking on any player and having cheap shots. The bit that makes me laugh is that a lot of posters are now wishing we had a team like this or a team like that.

    We stood off yesterday at ho,me against a team that can pass the ball well .. its in their heritage suddenly we need to keep the ball or even we need to move the ball quicker. Liverpool grew yesterday into their best performance of the season so far ... yet we focus on how bad we were. We then want to buy a new team. I have said this before as a SQUAD not a team we have the best ever yet we can't play together ... I don't care who's fault that is as in football you have no option but to move onto the next 90 minutes of the season... tell me what else can be done. Anyone on here who just picks the team apart in the manner they are is talking complete **** IMO.

    Harold is the manager and he believes he can do it and there are five teams in the current mix I don't believe they will be the same five or even if five will be the number... This is a crazy season Newcastle score six away from home and yet get the same results as us.

    Yesterday we lost a game in 30 minutes Sorry but after that it was not a case that Liverpool let us play and second half of course meant nothing to the 3 points but we played a lot better. So looking forward i believe still we have the players and maybe some new hope that will see us beat the current five down there ... Christ I still think we will make the middle league. The Chelsea and Spurs games of course look a dreadful prospect. One Poster said recently what we have to do is: FINISH THE SEASON in a position that means not being relegated. We have 54 points available to date and of course it's possible. I would be ashamed to have the same opinion as some posters on this board ... ashamed . I can read the table for myself I don't need insight and to the few who call me deluded then sorry but I won't join in and print what i think of you but it's not good

    We need to win three games more than the team in 17th. This is far from impossible. Thanks FT for cheering me up. I still feel like s**t, but a little more positive.

    Thanks for a few positive thoughts on here FT, f*** me we need some right now.
    You really would think reading this board sometimes that the season is already over and I might as well rip up my season ticket, be prepared for life in the Championship and then we will go out of business the season after.

    We are all SUPPPORTERS on here chaps......support the team through the good times and the bad. Yes there is a high probability we are going down but f****** hell, we ain't down yet.

    I agree it is not impossible...I wasn't at the WBrom game, so didn't see the match and so went to yesterdays match thinking, this is where we turn it around (and play like we did against Fulham), we can do it...but then I watched us play, watched us defend! watched us not really create a single chance.

    So it is not the numbers game that is worrying me....yes we can win 3 more games than Reading, Saints, Villa, Wigan and Sunderland.
    But we won't/ we cannot improve enough to win three more games than Reading, Saints, Villa, Wigan or sunderland.

    Sorry there was nothing there yesterday, that gives me any hope at all

    All depends whether we can play better than we have for the last 3 games. We were very poor, with some notably pathetic individual performances (I won't single them out DT), but Liverpool were the best team, along with Swansea, I've seen this year, and Suarez the best player by a mile.

    I do feel that this year it will require the least amount of points ever to stay up due to the gap in quality between Everton upwards and everybody else (although Liverpool will be up there IMO).

    I'm quite sure QPR will finish above Reading and Villa but less sure of Southampton. If Southampton begin to capitulate I think QPR have every chance but it means there will be a number of must win games which I believe are

    Reading (Away)
    West Ham (Away)
    Villa (Away)
    Norwich (Home)
    Wigan (Home)
    Sunderland (Home)

    All of the aforementioned must be won for a chance of survival

    DL it's going to be very hard for us to stay up as confidence is low, we have players that are not interested and even the fans can't seem to muster a a few extra chants.
    Agree Reading are the worse team in the division but at least they try (they just have rubbish players). I watched your game yesterday and was so envious of Everton and the way they fought for every ball and never game up even to superior oppersition. Something i thought we would have this season.
    I still believe in Arry but games are running out.
