    Match preview;
    Our visitors, Cardiff City, sit 20th in the league, having lost two, won two and drawn one of their last five, having won on Tuesday night against Derby County. Their top scorers are Rubin Colwell and Aden Flint, with 5 goals each. They also picked up Jordan Hugill at the end of January, a day after his loan to West Brom ended due to the Baggies signing Andy Carroll and Daryl Dike. Hugill has already scored 2 in 5 league games, so need to watch out for him.

    As for us, after a loss against Blackburn on Saturday, we sit 5th, having lost three, drawn one and lost one of our last five. Having gone to the game last Wednesday, it was great to get the win, but we rode our luck a fair amount, and then with the loss to Blackburn, we need to start winning more consistently or I fear we'll slowly slip down the table, and out the playoffs. At home, to a club near the bottom, presents a great chance to get a win, but as we all know...it doesn't always work that way!

    Team News
    QPR: Lee Wallace could return against Cardiff - but Seny Dieng is out with a quad injury.

    Rangers will make a late call on Lyndon Dykes.

    Cardiff: Cardiff will be able to welcome back both James Collins and Will Vaulks after they both recovered from a sickness bug.

    Max Watters is still out after rolling his ankle in training, while Curtis Nelson is also absent. Sean Morrison and Isaac Vassell have both been ruled out for the season.

    Pre-match Talk

    Mark Warburton (QPR manager): "Right now we are turning the bend and heading into the home straight, so the focus for games is always on three points.

    "You have to maintain concentration and there is no doubt we have the quality in the ranks to hurt teams, but teams are not going to let QPR play so we have got to make sure we mix it up.”

    Steve Morison (Cardiff manager): "We're really pleased that we got the result on Tuesday, because we deserved that. Going into Saturday, QPR have had a fresh week, so the boys know the job they've got to do, and we hope they carry it out to the best of their ability.

    "QPR are doing excellent. They're still in the play-offs, but we just want to go and spoil the party. That will be my message when we go and play anyone at the top of the table: can we ruin it for them on that day?"

    As always...COME ON YOU SUPER HOOPSA!!!

    Didn't Kiefer Moore move to Bournemouth in the January transfer window? If so, one less to worry about!

    Dieng ruled out, Marshall only fit keeper. 20 Yr old Murphy Mahoney who's never played a professional game will be on the bench. ****ed then if Marshall gers injured or sent off. Wallace is available again and Dykes is 50/50 but won't be rushed back.

    We’ll destroy these sheep-molesting long ball Neanderthals with our merry team of strikerless midgets.

    Without googling it I’m fairly sure Lee Camp was there for about five minutes.
