    The starting Xl in QPRs and Man Citys last outings were as follows:-

    Hart 2m Kenny 700,000

    Zabaleta 6.5m Onouha 2.75m

    Clichy 7m Taiwo loan

    Lescott 22m Hill Free

    Kompany 6.7m Ferdinand 1m

    Silva 25m Derry Free

    Barry 12m Barton Free

    Toure 24m Buzsacky 500,000

    Nasri 22m Taarabt 1m

    Aguero 38m Mackie 500,000 ?

    Tevez 25.5 Zamora 4m

    Total £190.7m Total £10m


    When you also consider that they also had Milner 26m, Dzeko 27m, Kolarov 17m and De Jong 16m on the bench, it doesn't take much to work-out that this is a real Goliath v David battle.

    However as Cisse said in a recent interview, ' Remember, it is only 11 v 11. '

    In my job as a fireman, we have to undergo periodical medical training. Part of that course is learning ' The Rule of Nines. ' This is how we work out the percentage of burns on a patient so they get the correct level of treatment. Each body part equates to 9%. ie, Head 9%, each arm 9% , torso front/back, abdomen f/b, legs f/b. This gives you eleven areas of the body totalling 99%. ( I'll let you work-out what makes up the missing 1%.)

    My point is this... When QPR step out onto the pitch on Sunday, our team is the equivalent of playing against just Aguero's head!

    Come on Rangers!!!!!

    1% - that's a proud boast!!!

    Another point is that we complain about our players wages which probably equate to just that of Yaya.

    I still can't write us off completely though.

    Ok Nines! I gather what you are saying is: we'll beat them as we got the 1% they're missing - Balls!

    Thought we was worth more than $15.768m (everyone pounces on my dollar sign on my US keyboard so I've converted it :laugh:). If we spent roughly $15.768m when Tony took over and $15.768m in January, how comes we're only worth $15.768m?

    Maybe our squad is worth $31.536m?

    When Barton runs his studs through Yaya's ankles he'll be worth f*ck-all...
