    Just be glad it'll be QPR sacking him and not us.

    Just shows you! you cant buy a new starting 11 every transfer window.

    IMO he just buys names

    Think he just went WAY OTT this year personally, thought he was doing canny at Man City

    But can't bring a team in and expect them to gel instantly, i told a few of the QPR lot on their board this and they thought i was being ridiculous and thought they would be brilliant instantly....well proved them wrong

    the thing is, whoever comes in now, is going to buy more players in january to try and save them which will make them even worse atm...

    You can't argue with Saggy Chops' record. He may be as dodgy as a nine-pound note, but he does a job.

    They need Redknapp to come in and mould that team together. Hughes had Taarabt and Hoillet on the bench last when he should have started them and gone at West Ham.

    QPR Chairman says he's backing Hughes. Translated into English that means " clear your desk Mark".

    Some critics say Mon has no plan b, Hughes doesn't appear to have a plan a.

    If Arry went in there they'd finish mid table easily

    QPR remind me of us when we went down, plenty of so called "big names" but a lot of whom are over the hill and only there for the money. I think they'll go down and hope Hughes gets sacked for his arrogant claim after last season "QPR will never again be involved in a relegation battle while I'm in charge".

    Not too sure about Hughes, he's got a fairly decent track record but he did go well overboard in the summer with his transfers. Steve Bruce done the same with you lot last year and by what, December? He was out of a job. It's not at all ever going to be good thing to pull up all of the roots at a club over one summer. There's going to be disharmony in their squad, for certain after so many new faces arriving, the message that sends out is that the rest of the squad are on the road to redundancy.

    QPR have players who can make a very decent starting 11, but with most of them not knowing how to read each other because of lack of playing time together they'll come unstuck and Hughes will take the rap for it all.

    My money would have been all over AVB before Spurs beat us last weekend, I still don't think he'll see out the entire season, but he's bought himself some time. For me, I'd say one of the promoted teams will sack their manager first, any of them. Other than that, Brendan Rogers looks like he's on borrowed time and Mancini is obviously having beef with his board given his quote "they are a much better team than us", after their pathetic showing against Dortmund, he's had his credit card chopped up by the sounds of it. He'll likely walk though.

    He's right though - he won't be in charge by the business end so the relegation battle won't be his!!!
