Who else is apathetic about tonight's result?

    Sad I know but I'm not bothered one bit...for me this season is gonna be more about staying up than going up now!

    Expect us to be well beaten tonight, but having said that in true Rangers fashion we could sneak a surprise win up there, party for a few short days and then lose our next 5

    Whilst I may romance about us going out and dazzling the opposition with our silky skills, the reality is we face a team coming into top form and needing little motivation.

    I hate to say it but perhaps a good thrashing here may initiate what seems to be inevitable...

    Unfortunately I agree.....but there is no proof anybody i.e. LF or TF are thinking that way at all and they just might keep him for financial reasons unless we get dangerously near relegation...

    If we do go down heavily tonight, and QPR management shrug it off, the fans' mood will be pretty restless if we take to the field against Preston on Saturday without a persuasive game plan

    I always care about QPR's results, I can't help it.

    I have low expectations for this evening and fear the worst. We could see proof that we let a fine manager (Clement) slip from our grasp, another lost opportunity being Warburton.

    Think I'm more resigned to the inevitable tonight. Hoping for an improved performance and not to get embarrassed, really is this what it has come to?? I have tried to keep upbeat and will continue my support but I kind of expect defeat against anyone in the top 8 which I can't get my head round considering the talent we have at the club. Expecting 3 or more 0 tonight :(

    How come we can see so clearly and those that matter can't? Or do they know more than us? Frustrated to agree strongly with your post. Isn't is dreadful when you are 'happy' just not to get thrashed!!

    I am sure some will see it but we have the luxury of just saying what we see. If TF LF and CR do then then its an admission of failure.
    When we are playing like this I try not to care so it hurts less. Then 15 minutes before kick off it all goes to rat **** and the next few hours become intense and full of worry. Stupid for a grown man really but its something most fans have in common

    Not at all confident about tonight but its just like rangers to go & get a result there, If we get beat i can see an uproar with our fans regarding ramsey.

    Spot on. Though I can cope with a bad result much more easily than witnessing a bad performance especially when this has become a habit. So at the moment I'm avoiding streams, radio commentaries and even this place when games are actually being played.

    Don't doubt that at all. But Clement turned us down. Whether that is because he had more sense, Real wouldn't let him go or he would have cost too much who's to say. No idea about Warburton. I know we sniffed around but whether we ever got round to a proposal to tie the know with him I don't know. Ramsey wanted the job, was the dirt cheap option and had just managed to do something that Redknapp had failed to do all season. Have a shot at scoring away from home. And it worked briefly. We scored twice and kept a clean sheet. Small wonder that the Goliath among football club owners, our very own Tony, decided instantly that he was the man for the job.

    This has got Derby home win all day long but Benny seems to be hanging on in there by his hat so you never know.
    I thought we would lose at Wolves and we didn't. TBH i would have always gone to a game like this but i won't waste my money on QPR away anymore (it's bad enough at home).

    If we win there will still no doubt be an uproar about Ramsey, as after MKD.

    Oh why cant we get Eddie Howe....lol His management on Sunday by replacing two players (who were not injured) at half time for tactical reasons completing changed the game and made him go up further in my estimation. It obviously confused Koeman and Bmouth should have got something out of the game. He speaks well and is so cool and calculated and seems to come across and sees the game like most fans of the sport..

    If Ramsey had just 10% of his ability and class.................

    I will be listening to the commentary, I have a feeling its going to be a long night. Still gives me goose bumps when i remember the last time we scored against Derby......... We didn't deserve to go up that year and didn't deserve to stay up last..... i hope tonight we play more than the 10 mins of football we played against the Bees.

    Confession time.

    I had to be told that we were playing tonight! I'm a lot more excited about the FA Cup First Round than Rangers make feel me at the moment!

    Of course I want us to win. Of course i want us to play well. Of course I will be at the Bush on Saturday.

    However, I would be a bit more excited if we were playing some football & the pre season announcements that we would be giving young players a chance had been adhered to.
