      I was gonna use them as an example but thought there could be no way that someone would rather be Pompey over QPR right now.

        Many decent players have played for them. Not sure what went wrong? The building of Ricoh Arena is one of the reasons, perhaps?

          Living above your means / reality, a lot like QPR right now.

          Difference being, QPR have real money! Well our owners do, Pompey and many others didn't.

            Yeah or them . We've made loads of mistakes but were 5 points of the bloody play offs and listening to some fans you'd think we were ####ing Wimbledon .

                Doesn't matter to me because those seasons in the Prem were twice as bad as anything good that has happened... mainly because the pain was over a season, rather than the euphoria of one day at Wembley.
                Even that year we went up via the PO's was painful at times under HR! We've had three woeful Prem seasons not one!

                But as i say, i think you are easier to please than myself and can somehow overlook all the shocking moments of the last 5 seasons! - Not sure how though because if it wasn't a dream manager Chris Ramsey tweet, it was an Adel Taraabt 'I'm not fat and Harry Redknapp doesn't know what he is talking about' article in the Daily Mail

                  That's your issue then, seeking negatives over positives. Remembering poor times not the good times.

                  I think you missed this.

                  Who would you rather be? or even better still what recent 5 year history and present club situation would you rather have. (Im not offering you Burnley or Hull as that would be too easy)

                  Huddersfield Town or QPR

                  Charlton or QPR

                  Leeds or QPR

                  Fulham or QPR

                  Wolves or QPR

                  Forest or QPR

                    Strange to discover Jimmy's love of Prog Rock. But then he does have Floyd as a middle name...

                      This is something unmistakeably QPR. I can't tell you how many times I've made this statement before and I'm glad others are as well. We are not a huge team. We have fans who say they want to stay in the championship all the time because 'it's competitive' but then complain when we aren't a top 4 premier league side. It's especially ludicrous when you look at the other teams around us as you've shown. I know for a fact I'd rather be a Rangers fan than a fan of any of those teams.
                      The fact that he said the Prem time was twice as bad is probably the funniest thing I could imagine in that scenario. It is literally just looking at the negatives through a telescope then turning it the wrong way round to look at the positives. I've never seen anything like it in my life.

                        Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf reported today that Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink has agreed to be the next manager of QPR.

                        De Telegraaf state that the only thing now to be agreed for Hasselbaink (who all the Dutch press call Jerrel) to take over at QPR is a settlement with Burton Albion.

                        Burton Albion are, according to the Dutch report, looking for a lump sum payment from QPR, which could suggest the London club would have preferred to spread things out over a period of time. De Telegraaf don't foresee any serious issues and think the move is close to being finalised and confirmed.

                        Dutch website SoccerNews say Hasselbaink has agreed a 'multi-year' deal to become the next QPR manager. They call the QPR job a 'wonderful' opportunity and say that the club is a 'sleeping giant'. The good work Hasselbaink has put in at Burton Albio is of course also mentioned.

                        QPR fans will be eager to get the situation sorted out to allow their new manager a chance to put his mark on the team. A good first few games and QPR will be looking toward the play-off places.

                          If I was a Burton fan I'd be quite annoyed that he's leaving mid season. Good for us though
