Dunno, Burnley and Norwich are the dark horses! if neither make it this year, look to both to actually get up into the top5 next season.

It is a case of who can maintain the momentum. I thought Cardiff, then Leeds, then Norwich would be our main challengers but they have all dropped off again. Now maybe Forest.
Much as I don't want to say it I think Cardiff will be our nearest competition.

Forest coming up is going to be the season definer for us! If cardiff dont go up, they could actually go out of business. Or better still go play in the Welsh League.

1-1 draw with forest stops them getting 2 points better off.
 
Here's a tattoo from my friend Mark - cost him 300 pounds, The tattooist under charged him because his boss said it should have cost 800 and the tattooist thought he was being mean. Not lies!! I wonder how much it would cost here?
 
Mark was paying homeage to the decent respectable club badges of the past. Not the piece of sh*t Briatore and Paladini introduced - loathed by most QPR fans.

How does that work? Are there no copyright issues?

Cardiff vs Burnley worked in our favour. Now all we need is for Forest to drop a few points.

Awesome result for us. Now all we need is for Forest to draw with Cardiff.
As for the DVD clips, it's all good. I've got some great stuff from the 70's from him. And Jonesy brought me back the QPR DVD vol 2 with 15 or so different games from the 70's and LWT with Brian Moore.

Well some of those clips were given by Gav and surprisingly "Pete" grabbed them and then gave no acknowledgement of where they came from or who did them. Gav, I understand got some from the companies themselves.

You won, Swans won, Forest won, we won. We're at Middlesbrough this weekend. I still think this is a very tight league this season.

I love you Ipswich! 2-0 over Cardiff! We won thanks to an 85th minute goal to Ishmael Miller making it Miller time all round. dents Leicesters run, Swansea lost, Forest lost, it just couldn't be any better for us!

AND it continued midweek even though we suffered a rare loss. Still 7 points clear of Swansea (drew), Cardiff lost, Forest lost, Norwich won but still well behind. I am almost beginning to believe!!

Here pussy, go in and get in amongst those pigeons ....

QPR face ponts deduction

Personally I doubt if any points deduction will eventuate. Just imagine the furore give that West Ham faced only a fine with the Tevez affair. Mind you, Warnock was very vocal about a points deduction back then!

Watch this (some other) space.

I know, I know, its serious!

09 Mar 22:07 · edited 09 Sep 05:03
Just found out about this effort. It's that slimey prick Gianni Paladini at work. Although, apparently there was a rule change after the event happened and therefore unless the FA or FL wish to act retrospectively, nothing should happen. However if they do take action, I am sure the club will bring up the West Ham/Sheffield United/ Teves situation.

B*gger! Did I begin to believe too soon?
Certainly smells like Paladini - Perhaps they could just fine him and kick him out of the country.

Oh it's a Paladini f**k up for sure. He hasn't learned a thing. He f**ked up Tommy Smiths transfer last August and we had to loan him on two occassions before making it a proper transfer in janauary.
 
I'm waiting to see all 9 Paladini fans defend him to the hilt but on the various MB's they have been strangley silent except Piss Pot Pete who is manouvering himself into a position where he can condem him or praise him depending the outcom. But then Piss Pot Pete and his form are well known throught the QPR fans community.

Abel Taarabt wins Chamionship Player of Year and didn't he deserve it. If you placed him in the Premiership I'm sure he'd set that alight too... great player - look forward to seeing him in the premiership.
24 Mar 00:37 · edited 09 Sep 05:03

I've suggested a 45 mill tag on him. If Andy Carroll can go for 35 mill then taarabt is worth more. It just goes to show some of the stupid fees paid. In the real world, I wouldn't let him go for anything smaller than 15 mill. But he likes Uncle Neil and is happy. If we go up, it will be interesting to see how it all pans out.

One thing is for sure, Paladini has to be gone!

Oddly enough is Carroll still inured? A real return on investment. Back to business tomrrow. general concesus amongst QPR fans is that they'd prefer the Canaries to go up than the rest of the contenders. Although Swansea is a close 2nd.

Wayne Routledge got caught out by The Independent's April Fool's Day article about Ronaldo.

Why do you think that is?
04 Apr 10:53 · edited 09 Sep 05:03
Because most Canary fans arn't  like those from Cardiff. Billy Davis at Forest has false delussions of himself and they've self destructed. Liecester have tried to buy their way out and have as many if not more loans than Cardiff. Leeds fans rank down there with Cardiff, Millwall, Stoke etc. Swansea are an acceptable alternative to Norwich. and IMHO it would be nice if it was these three sides that went up - QPR, Norwich and Swansea. Next year Ipswich can come up to give you some local derby passion. Lonegunmen2011-04-28 21:22:30

Recovering from the 4-1 blip at Scunny, the lads won 1-0 at Barnsley. Taarabt after 47 seconds. Taarabt & Helgusson were "rested" against Scunny and it blew up in our face. However, this may be a good thing as it keeps us focussed and not arrogant. We know we have to try and win every game from the last five.

championship is differant.
1st, 2nd go up.
3rd through 6th playoff in 2 matches, with the winners being the third team promoted. its a good idea as those games earn the championship a decent bit of coin from TV revenue, as they tend to show them live even here in NZ

But if they do get up, they won't be your championship team anymore, will they?
