    We seem to play a lot better against the better teams in the league I consider Hull to be one of those teams

    Yesterday, I was 99 % certain of giving the game a miss (for the first time in my life). Now I am at 98 %.

    I'll be watching the stream 100%, seems to me like we win this season when least expected to. Unfortunately we still usually lose when expected, but I'm QPR and the Club needs max support now even it it only us hollering at the Officials live stream on a screen thousands of miles away.

    Sorry if it is late, but just updated with the match preview from the official. Probably the shortest match preview I have ever seen on there. Even the people who write for the official website are losing their enthusiasm.

    However, it is match day, and you can't help but get a bit excited. This could be the day we record a good win up north, 100% guarantee avoiding a relegation battle, and score a few crackers. Also important to keep things in perspective, easy for me to do this weekend, my father-in-law is visiting and he is a moderate Ipswich fan. :emoticon-0104-surpr

    We are in a relegation battle and still will be even if we win today.

    I will be out at a famiily birthday so will not be watching the stream. Perhaps it is a blessing?

    I will just dicretely glance at my phone every time it pings..

    I also could not watch the mid-week match against Rotherham. Perhaps I have subconciously given up watching the R's for Lent? To be honest, at the moment it is a bigger pain and sacrifice watching them, than not watcihng them.

    For those going or watching, I wish you a very pleasant surprising result. :)

    My usual sentiments, exactly, but last Saturday and Wednesday have knocked the stuffing out of me so much that I feel that if I watch it and we play the same brainless, slow, uninspiring pony, I'll be completely broken.
    A long walk in the spring air is looking like the best option.

    Agree if results go against us today, but if we win and one of Rotherham/Wigan/Reading we'll be 10 points clear and I will feel a lot more at peace.

    Wasn't it the Hull City game the "game that never was"? The false start of our disastrous season at the long gone White City Stadium. The heavy rain started at 4.30 pm and did not stop. Some of us went with binoculars but still never saw a thing.

    I did go to a few games at White City, but don't remember that one. My favourite game against Hull was in 1965 when they were top of the table and we drew 3-3 after being behind three times. John Collins scored all three.

    About thirty years later, a few of us were in the bar after some game and I mentioned the Collins hat-trick against Hull. A fella next to us turned to me and said 'do you remember John Collins?' 'Yes', I said, 'he was my favourite player as a kid', 'He's my brother', he replied.

    Well you lot can moan but I’d far rather be a Rangers fan than a Man City fan.
    Shall we go to the Swansea game today?
    Will we win 3,4,5,6,7,8, or 9 nil today?
    How long before we score our first goal?
    We will play our first,second or third string team?
    No need for hope just expectation

    Not for me!

    I hope that Caneron may be back to the starting eleven. We sort of need his composure.

    I would play 4-2-3-1

    Mist of the team pick themselves. Cameron should partner Luongo as defensive midfield.

    If will be interesting to see if McClaren picks Paweł to the starting line up and who will play up front.

    At the Leeds game every player put in 100% and played like their lives depended on it. It shows they can do it but inconsistency has been our biggest consistency this season. It’s been a weird season of three halves.

    To ensure we at least score a goal I’ve backed Hull to win 4,5 and 6 nil.

    I feel the team will start feeling the heat and pull their apathetic finger out.

    Train is packed with Rangers. Usual air of humorous pessimism. Cleaner comes through train and ask “any rubbish?” Every Rs fan had an opinion . URrrrrrsssss!!!!!!

    I've always felt they had it in them, Tram. The thought of the drop to Div 3 will dispel the lethargy...
