Great result tonight. Proud that the team have overcome the Luton disappointment and dealt with the rumours around MB.

Top of the league for now - so well done to everyone involved with the club to get there!

Some tough decisions to make for MB. Can he sustain a promotion push with us? Or does he want to take on a possible EPL relegation fight. Or is a possible doubling of salary the main factor? Maybe. We shall soon find out hopefully.

Must be the first time I've seen a 3-0 win and am disappointed. The second half was treated like a training session rather than an opportunity to please the crowd and improve goal difference. And only at QPR can you go top of the league but likely to be managerless in the morning. The crowd were pretty quiet for much of the game despite the comfortable win. Sword of Damocles and all that.

Know what you meant about the second half, but I also thought that it was smart play. Don't risk injury, don't overcommit and don't exhaust the squad. Boring? Yes. Sensible? Probably.

Not sure I agree.
Could easily have doubled the score.
 
Trying not to speak from a selfish or biased view, I actually think Beale going to Wolves would be a major error on his part.
Top of the league, exceeded many fans expectations already and his stock is high.
A move to the club that changes managers more frequently than the government does chancellors is a totally different ball game.
We are a team on the up, with a positive vibe and some great young talent. Wolves are a team, lacking identity, going in the wrong direction and where success maybe defined by staying up. He could actually damage his own, (so far very short) credibility. Personally I think he should see how far he can take us this season and if it results in success then he has reached the premier league, a top six finish would still put him on that pedestal of coaching talent, attractive to clubs like Wolves and maybe even bigger teams.

Beale is obviously very ambitious and also very confident about his own ability to manage in the PL, but I agree that it could be a big mistake on his part to take the Wolves job right now. Much better for him (and us, of course) to see where he can get to this season with QPR and take stock in the summer. There'll be other offers.

Just saw him interviewed on Sky and he said he hasn't spoken to anyone yet about the Wolves situation and talked about 31 games to go for QPR.

Fingers crossed.

I think the question is ... what would you do? Top of the EFL or take on a struggling Prem side for 10x the cash? I think I would stick personally; the rewards are greater later. I don't think I'm this disappointed since El Tel went to Barcelona. Would take Warnock back in a heartbeat ... failing that ... Chris Wilder ... grasping at straws ...

This precisely.
