    Have to agree. Our busiest period this season and we are now facing three games against top six opposition all within a few days of each other. The EPL would be apoplectic at the thought!
    It doesn’t bode well for our league position, the players or the paying fans.

    I remember a beautifully timed and perfectly connected volley showing exquisite technic and finesse

    Note to self, more attention must be paid to previous meetings, especially those before I was born.

    Not too far off I might add, but I wasn't around for the 82 final.

    When Young dived to get Sean Derry sent off at Old Trafford, SAF had the grace to say that he was going to 'have a word', rather than bluster like this fool.

    Yeah, and there are far too many of them. This league is all about quantity over quality.

    If we hadn't had a cup run it would have been six so we moan whichever way it goes. One win will brighten everyone's mood...

    The frustrating thing is, we're a player or two short of being a good team. But that difference is telling - we need our loanees back on the pitch

    Whatever happens tonight at least Matt Phillips won't be scoring against us again as he's out injured.

    The only loanee that will make a real difference now is Cameron and by the way Cousins is playing I'm not sure even he's a big loss now......Furlong is beginning to look a decent RB so again Rangel isn't such a big loss......Hemed, I'm not convinced by and Smith has done a good job......Wells has been pretty much an ever present......

    Can't see how we can improve other than having a bit of luck go our way for a change.....

    If not better, which I think a fit Cameron and Angel at least are, fit they will all enable others to take a needed rest.

    A tough read but sums up the situation quite succinctly........Clive's preview

    QPR, on a five match losing run, face high flying West Brom, who beat them 7-1 in August, at Loftus Road this evening.

    QPR (11-6-14, DLWLLL, 18th) v West Brom (16-9-7, DLLWDW, 4th)

    Lancashire and District Senior League >>> Tuesday February 19, 2019 >>> Kick Off 19.45 >>> Weather – S’alright innit? >>> Loftus Road, London, W12

    It was John Gregory who always repeated the mantra “tough times don’t last, tough people do” but the tough times Queens Park Rangers are currently wading through look like continuing a little while longer yet.

    On the pitch, a five-match losing run in the league only looks like continuing with games against three of the top five in the next seven days, starting tonight against a West Bromwich Albion side that has won more away games than anybody else in the league and beat Rangers 7-1 in the corresponding fixture back in August.

    Off the pitch, the latest set of QPR accounts filed last week laid bare just how difficult it’s going to be for Rangers to compete moving forwards. The club lost £37m for the 2017/18 season (the last one under Ian Holloway’s stewardship) of which £20m was the historic FFP fine which was added to the accounts as an exceptional item, with an initial payment north of £4m, and the rest due over the next nine years. For the purposes of the new FFP/sustainability rules the loss was in the region of £17m, up from £6.4m the year before.

    Read the rest here.......https://www.fansnetwork.co.uk/footb...news/49734/no-accounting-for-success--preview

    Cousins has had one or two good games anyway, against Bristol City and Watford. I'd be delighted if he was at last finding the form that he had at Charlton. On consistency this season, I'd probably choose Cameron over him, but Cousins presently deserves his place. Agree about Hemed, I hope there is more that we haven't yet seen. Smith is limited but good at what he does. Wells is a welcome fox in the box. Rangel scores goals, so I'd be tempted to choose him over Furlong if match fit - not much between them defensively.

    I feel we have it in us to hit another good vein of form.
