    Hull have spent 40 million - not quite like QPR but relegation would be a real mess financially for them!

    Not sure what backing Hull have but certainly I think QPR have deeper pockets. After the way the season has gone I would like to see Newcastle down - they seem to be a club in a mess - a bit like Blackpool

    Well if the Geordies do go down then that will be one more match that our traveling fans will get to see properly... the away stand is a disgrace: vertigo inducing and too far to see properly.

    The proposed name change to Hull Tigers seemed to be a marketing ploy to appeal more to the worldwide audience the PL has - wonder if Allam will go ahead with trying to make the change if they go down.

    I'd like to think that they will apply their rules appropriately, but half expect them to cave in....

    Isn't it a shame that we will not be playing that team in West London next year :)

    From Mark Clemmit's column in this morning's Times

    'In March QPR declared losses of £9.8 million, but only after their owners, mainly Tony Fernandes, wrote off loans of £60 million. So effectively the real losses were in the region of £70 million, which could trigger financial fair play tax of £50 million.

    Next season's fixtures are set to be announced on June 17 and the Football League has intimated that if QPR do not stump up they could be denied entry into all their competitions.'

    Totally agree - you'd think, with their team just securing a trip to Wembley, that should be the last thing from their minds.
    I know it will be hard to overturn a 2-1 deficit at Middlesborough but i wouldn't write Brentford off just yet <whistle>.
