    Reading will be relegated then. Two spots remain.

    Not good enough for us now and would never get into a MH team unless we had loads of players out. Good luck to him. Reckon they will struggle next season.

    Kasper Gorkks will cut it but Legs and Connolly won't.

    TBH these are the sort of teams i expect to get 6 points off. Last season we seemed to do better against the better sides and lose to all the dross. MH will have a team that will compete in the mid table and i see us being to strong for the likes of Reading.
    Ex players or not, our new players have nothing to do with Legs,Gorkss,Connolly. just ask cisse if he is worried about the pace of Gorkss? <laugh>

    Hear Hear Swords. How many times have QPR let us down over the years. I never take a win for granted.

    Not arrogant Swords but if we are to avoid the same situation as last season we need to be beating 'lesser' teams because we may not be getting results against Spurs/Chelsea/Arsenal/Liverpool/Everton like we did last year.
    We really do need to get six points off the likes of Reading.

    At the beginning of last year Swansea and Norwich were fodder and we were safe. Personally I wouldn't predict how the promoted teams will do until i see them a few times up here, could be some surprises again.

    No according to many of their deluded fans we are going down and they will be mid table?

    They can think what they want but for me i see six points and if people think we cant get six points off the likes of Reading where do they expect them to come from?

    Get the deal done asap,if we can get that amount for him it will be incredible.Never rated him he was a liability,money we can put towards bringing in another proper centre-half!

    Connolly has done us reasonable service over the years and is a decent Championship player. I'm pretty sure he won't be a success in the Premiership and I'd wish him well if he leaves.

    Im sure when he went on loan he said MH would take a look at him during pre-season and give him a chance. Cant see him leaving just yet.

    I heard a while back that he wanted to stay at Rangers and was hoping he would get a chance under MH. However he just wants to play football and i guess the best chance is at Reading.
