QPR now desperate for a win on Monday!

Oh dear. After a highly creditable performance at the Emirates, going down by a solitary goal, it must be choking for Rangers fans to find themselves fourth from bottom in the division and desperate for a win against Norwich on Monday. Anything less than three points from that game and the jaws of relegation will open wide.

Happily for Rangers, Bolton and Wolves slit each others' throats in a 1-1 draw and Norwich and Swansea both dropped home points, although Swans fans may see a point at home to Spurs as a fair result. Where did that Blackburn win at Old Trafford come from? When United pulled back to 2-2, after being two goals behind, you would have had your mortgage on a 4-2 or 5-2 win for Fergie's boys - but that's what makes football so delicious. Where are the Kean Assassins now then? The guy is clearly hopeless isn't he?

So Blackburn have now drawn at Anfield and won at Old Trafford, and sit just three points behind QPR, with a better goal difference. And meanwhile Wigan picked up a bonus point at Stoke, not a result many of us would have called.

Norwich will now know that defeat at Loftus Road could be disastrous. All the promoted clubs would do well to remember Blackpool, as I have been warning all season - much to the chagrin of the gRs. Well the table doesn't lie and, as I warned, if you don't win your home games in the Prem, you will struggle. It is shit or bust on Monday now for Warnock's boys. And I fancy that increasing desperation will see QPR slip to a 2-1 home defeat. West Ham could be playing QPR in the Championship yet!

I know that what you say is actually accurate, but why do you continually write about QPR? It's dull and boring and smacks of jealousy. Get over it for the love of GOD.

We are due a home win after luckless draws, and a defeat to city when we were the better team. You're right HF the norwich game is massive now - a win will help us kick on,anything else, and that sinking feeling you previously posted on, will be starting to worry us.One individual error and lack of decent firepower cost us again today.Anyway, Happy new year to you HF!

Happy New Year to you Den, Hope we meet in the Prem next season despite today's results. Warnock in charge of QPR and Allardyce at the helm of West Ham - Lyall and Sexton must be turning in their graves!
