    If you had a choice, which one?

    FA Cup for me. The glory of winning some silverware. A victorious day out at Wembley. I can only dream.

    Given our record in the cup since in my living memory, I'd go for promotion. FA cup offers one big day out compared with 20+ big days out in the Remiership.

    What, really, is so wonderful about the Premier League?

    Winning the FA cup would be the best day of my life.

    I can't get my head round the other point of view. Fewer games, more expense and in a league where you're forever fighting just to survive.

    Ask Wigan or Birmingham fans.

    FA Cup. You get major silverware, European football and two great days at Wembley.

    Promotion for me, it is essential that we get promoted in the next couple of seasons. I'm afraid that finance has to win out over romance in this case.

    If we are not pushing forwards, we will slip backwards.

    Promotion and eventually a top spot in the PL - FA Cup is nice but the chances of winning it compared to us moving up are very, very low.

    Promotion now....FA Cup the future.

    QPR winning the FA Cup is on my bucket list (things to do before I die)...so I hope it doesn't happen just yet!

    I would like us to get relegated to the 4th tier win the cup whilst there and win promotion over the next 3 seasons to the Premiership and hold on to the cup each year adding the Europa league cup each year as well!

    Oh nearly forgot also win the Premiership at the 1st attempt ;)

    Well I'm bemused. Would happily watch us in League One forever in return for an FA Cup win. £40 to see us play Sunderland on a Sunday lunchtime and fight for 17th. Nah.
