Premier League Half-Term Reports: Harry’s had it at QPR Redknapp looks to be on borrowed time with Rangers this term. Premier League Half-Term Reports: Harry’s had it at QPR Barclays Premier League 2014/15 To finish bottom Burnley 7/5 QPR 11/4 Crystal Palace 9/1 Team Name: Queens Park Rangers Current Premier League position: 20th Giddy highs: Undoubtedly the R’s one Premier League victory this season – a 1-0 home win over potential relegation rivals Sunderland that was settled by a single goal from Charlie Austin – which gave the Londoners early hope before a run of four straight games without a win in the top-flight. Crushing lows: The trip to White Hart Lane and the 4-0 rollicking that followed at the hands of Tottenham was a notable low, with Harry Redknapp hardly endearing himself to the Rangers support by bowing to Spurs fans’ request to “Give us a wave” during a poor game for the visiting side. Shining Star: Charlie Austin Redknapp made no secret of his desire to recruit a top-level forward to the Loftus Road club with the last-minute departure of Loic Remy hardly helping things. But one man who has made a positive start is Austin, with two goals for the Rs in the Premier League so far. It would have been three, were it not for a penalty miss on the opening day against Hull. Biggest Disappointment: Sandro Signed on transfer deadline day for a hefty £8m, big things were expected of the Brazilian, who was brought in to add extra steel to the Rs in the centre of the park. However he has yet to deliver for his new London employers, having only featured in defeats to Manchester United, Southampton and West Ham and has been sidelined more recently with an injury picked up when celebrating a goal during training. Best bet for the rest of the season: QPR to finish bottom at 11/4 Grade: E- Final Thoughts: Fortunate to be promoted last season, Rangers have been found wanting at this level and things look unlikely to improve unless Redknapp decides to depart. Sack the QPR boss and the London club could have a chance – provided they are willing to bring in a manager of Tony Pulis’ ilk. Fail to do that and we could well be seeing the Hoops battling it out with Burnley to see who can be relegated in the quickest time this season
Persuasive comments from Queens and Nines re Moyes. Sadly, I don't think we're a big enough club for him but would love to be proved wrong. Great track record before ManU and as an individual, I've always liked the guy
Very compelling points there nines. I really don't like Pullis and I loathe to have him near our club but Moyes is a bit more palatable for me. Also think that his willingness to use youngsters is important moving forward.
Moves isn't for me. He never won anything at a so called big Club, was a disaster at United and looks what he is, another well over the top, past it dynasaur British football Manager.very like Redknapp. Pulis is the best alternative I can think of.
Moyes can get a team to 6-8th in Premiership...suits me Pulis keeps teams up suits me Malkie McKay...is a great manager but a s***....not so happy Paul Clements...is one for the future..... suits me Tim Sherwood...done nowt...not so happy Glenn Hoddle....was a great manager...probably lost it now, from what I have seen...not for me Sir Les...great guy, RRRRs superhero...done nowt...not for me Joey and Clint...a lot to prove.....suits me Pardew.....desperate to bounce back, too early Karl Robinson ...same as Paul Clement...suits me (but we would go down this year) Anyone I have forgot....oh yes Me.....I have the passion, I have more know how than some....but cannot give dressing room talks without giggling stupidly.....no
Why can't we be like Apoel. Watching Barcelona vs Apoel and Luttle David is scaring Goliath. A team with little quality playong inspiring football. Ok they are 1-0 doen to Barca but they are putting up a real fight and not afraid to rush forward. I Want to see some if this at LR !
