    really? stoke, as shown at the weekend, are more than beatable, though they are a much tougher nut to crack at the britannia admittedly. saints is winnable and so is sunderland away. if villa can win there, anyone can! i still think qpr will stay up. i said after the opening day's results that the two teams beaten 5-0 (us and the r's) would both stay up. i still stand by that, but i think qpr will stay up under a different manager.

    To be fair Wubba, he never mentioned Chas 'n Dave in the thread, I think he was just generalising!

    <ok>

    Fair do's Dave. Grudgingly I have to say that Hughton is a good manager making the best of your limited resources very well. Solid & steady ain't no bad thing. Still you're missing out of all of the bottom 3 excitement yet again.

    I can't believe how poorly Hughes is performing for you, you've got the players to be performing better than you are, trouble is, losing very quickly becomes habit-forming! You really needed to beat Reading!

    I can. He did a half decent job at Wales (won 29%), where lets face it he was in a win/win situation. If he did anything it would be a success, if he didn't well what did you expect? It's Wales.

    Since he's been in club management he's been in charge at Blackburn (won 43%), Man City (won 46%), Fulham (won 32%) and now QPR (won 25%) and every single club under-achieved while he was there. So the question really has to be is it the clubs who are under achieving or is Hughes actually just a crap manager who everyone thinks is good because he did OK with Wales?

    Chas n Dave were diehard Spuds fans weren't they - do QPR have any "famous" fans ? We after all have Delia (who is a fan at heart), Stephen Fry, Jake Humprhries, Ed Balls (<doh>), Myleene Klaas ......

    I wouldn't say he under acheived at Blackburn or Fulham. In fact a 43% win rate for a team like Blackburn is exceptional. I believe they were struggling when he took over as well.

    Not so much there, he really did spend a heck of alot of money on average to rubbish players, Lescott £23,000,000 I think, Cruz 17 mil?, Adebayor, Milner and Barry were stupidly priced (they may be Mancinis)and they are just the more well known ones. There were a few foreigners as well I think he signed that barely played.

    Perhaps it shows he can't spot a top end player player.
