QPR's Survival Prospects Bolstered Without Kicking a Ball!


It's another huge game for Mark Hughes and his Hula Hoops this weekend. Defeat against Fulham would spell big, big trouble and a draw wouldn't be much use either. QPR need to start winning games, and they need to do so fast.

And Hughes can have no excuses if it all goes tits up against his former club. He grabbed Zamora through the glory hole, so weakening the cottagers, and has now had his new squad together long enough to get them used to playing with each other. If his new charges can't come out on top of a very average Fulham side, then big trouble lies ahead in the Bush as QPR leave an easy run of fixtures behind them - Wigan, Wolves and Fulham at home and Blackburn away - and tackle much tougher opponents. A half decent team would have held on to a two goal lead against Villa and achieved results against relegation rivals: but QPR are not half decent - they are on the poor side of mediocre. Mind you Hughes has a plan - to yomp to success!

All that said, the Rs survival chances improved today without a ball being kicked. Wolves can't find a manager and so will be rudderless until the end of the season, and Blackburn skipper Samba looks destined for Russia without love. So if Hughes cocks it up in the Bush from here, his reputation will be in complete tatters. And Al Fayed would love that, wouldn't he?

Fail to see the West Ham connection? Another dull read.

Wake up everybody. QPR is owned by a self proclaimed Hammers fanatic. If Tony Fernandes had bought Bolton HF would be writing about Bolton. Its relevant. So either stop complaining or stop reading.
