Newcastle shambles helps QPR finish with a win - report

QPR have often finished seasons with a home match against Newcastle in recent times, and on Saturday at Loftus Road the Toon Army made perfect guests for the wake.
Not only because they’re one of the few Premier League teams Rangers stand a chance of beating, nor that the shambolic state they arrived in and the despicable second half performance they produced reassured the Loftus Road faithful that there are others out there in varying degrees of mess, but because they actually add a silver lining to the cloud of dropping a division and leaving this stinking cesspool behind.
Newcastle United, a famous old institution, a community asset, reduced to an advertising vehicle for cheap trainers and pay-day loans, will finish either fourth bottom or third bottom of the Premier League this season and for that they’ll be given the thick end of £70m. That’s £70m for a team that has lost nine of its last ten games, won only three of its last 21, won none of its first seven… thanks for your contribution, here’s £70m. Are we really that disappointed to be leaving this gross divison of excess behind?
