Lots on here wanted a couple of seasons in this league to 'sort ourselves out'. I think we'll be in this league or lower for many years to come - hope you're happy now!
can't wait to see everyones team ratings for that match
Think I may give Tozser 1 out of 10......

His set piece delivery of the ball was simply awful, always too hard, too long, I could do better, so why on earth did JFH persist with him taking those kicks?
poor in every area, polter can't hold ball up as he can't stand up, reminds me of a new born foal. Towser hasn't exactly improved his selection chances, full backs are still ****e, no one can cross properly, could go on all day but the rugby's on
Nasser seemed to be our only bright spot after he came, should have been in the starting 11 perhaps?
Fulham striker Moussa Dembele makes it 2-0
Fulham defeated west London rivals Queens Park Rangers for the second time this season to give Slavisa Jokanovic his first win as Cottagers' manager.
The game was over by half-time as Ross McCormack's clinical finish, Moussa Dembele's header and Tom Cairney's deflected effort put Fulham 3-0 up.
Luke Garbutt almost made it 4-0, the same scoreline from Craven Cottage in September, but sliced wide.
Tjaronn Chery grabbed a consolation, side-footing in from a corner late on.
It leaves Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink with just two wins from 13 games as QPR boss.
Fulham's win at QPR as it happened
The R's came up against a Fulham side who had won just one match in the Championship since the end of October, leaving them four points above the relegation zone.
Jokanovic, a former team-mate of Hasselbaink at Chelsea, replaced Kit Symons at the end of December but had done little to halt the slide - losing three and drawing two of his opening five matches in charge.
However, QPR were completely blown away in the final 10 minutes of the first half as McCormack latched onto Cariney's through ball and fired in his 16th league goal of the season before an unmarked Dembele had the simplest of finishes.
Midfielder Cairney then took advantage of more lacklustre defending when he slotted in after Dembele's initial shot had rebounded off the post in first-half injury time.
Fulham goalkeeper Andy Lonergan pulled off two fine saves from Nasser El Khayati and Chery before the Dutchman coolly slotted home in stoppage time.

Still maybe it was just an extreme bad day at the office. We aren't good enough to be thoroughly consistent so we will have ups and downs. It's going to be how the players react to this performance next week at Bolton.
True, and no squirrel came on the pitch, which is a positive of equal importance
Be good if we could hold onto the ball for more than 2 passes
All today has proved is how unprepared and not ready we would be to move up. We absolutely need to stay where we are until days like today become a thing of the past. If we move up too quickly, fluke promotion some how, days like today will be the norm in a division we are unprepared for.
Doubt any of us are 'happy now' but surely we can all agree we need to sort ourselves out. I'm optimistic that what we are seeing are the growing pains needed for QPR to move on from just being a club full of over paid mercenaries. It won't happen overnight, and it may well take a couple of seasons, but we'll get there.
Agree, bit like when we lost at Fulham earlier in the season. Just frustrating off the back of last week's performance against Ipswich, as you say, it's how we bounce back!
