    not just us!

    I know it always feels that fortune doesn't shine on us -witnessed by the regularity of the point losing late goal seemingly every game -but how about Leicester? (and Villa for that matter). Must be an illusion - all teams are unlucky! (except for Chelsea of course).

      S'funny, on the way home yesterday I got to wondering what the table would look like if you took the score at say, 88 mins as the result. Presume we'd be a few places higher. But, it's not luck - I've been suspicious about our overall fitness levels for a few years. At some point you do start wondering if there's a connection between conceding late goals and the teams energy flagging.

          Football People who have visited QPR have for many seasons now labelled QPR an old fashioned club when it comes to training. We are still a dinasaur,really.

            I think it is a long standing issue with the club. Remember City? It isn't like it just started.

              Was thinking the same thing. Found this site http://www.soccerstats.com/timing.asp?league=england

              We've conceded 9 goals in the last 10 minutes of games, more than at any other 10 min slot in a game. Must be a combination of bad luck, bad judgment, lack of concentration and lack of fitness. But those goals have cost us at least 5 points to his season
