    Talk of play offs!

    Has predictably appeared. Please can we get real? Have a look at the remaining fixtures - it's not going to happen. Let's be sensible and enjoy the next few weeks with next season in mind. Could be very different from the shambles at the beginning of this season.

    No way, course not. Way too many teams above us that would all have to have a terrible run coupled with us winning the majority of our games. A comfortable 10th place finish for us IMO and go into next season on a high.
    You should never underestimate the predictability of stupidity.

      Why not? Someone always has a late run with momentum, just the same as someone - hopefully Foolham - who gets dragged into the relegation places. I really don't get the posters who WANT to stay down, some for a couple of seasons. Are you really shelling out your hard earned hoping we don't go up? Play to win then deal with the consequences, good or bad.

        Well it looks like some teams in the top 6 have shot their bolts. Derby the stand out but hull and boro obviously don't fancy it. As others have said all it takes is a run and some belief. Lot of football to play

          Why not speak about the play-off AND enjoy the rest of the season at the same time?

            People, do not get positive based on our recent performances. Hope is not allowed, potential is not allowed because people can get too emotionally uncomfortable with thinking about potential and maybe it not happening. Honestly, I don't get complaining about thinking about that. Of course its unlikely, its probably not going to happen and most people are aware that its probably not going to, but hope is different from expectation and talk of play offs is primarily hopeful. If you don't allow yourself to be disappointed, there is no issue with discussion of it.

              Been the same all season depending on the last result. Win and we can make the play off's loose and we are in a relegation fight.

              Realistically we are probably a 10th-12th placed team and hopefully can kick on next year although there is going to be a lot more ins and outs this summer. If we fluked the play off's and won would we not have to buy pretty much a brand new team for next season ? Again.

                    Yeah, we probably won't make it - and I won't be disappointed if we don't as I've seen so many performances with relegation written over them that I'm buzzing we've climbed the table - but we have to TRY. This is supposed to be a professional club.

                      Would love to go up but can't see it. If we did manage it I would happily bank the money and make a few astute long term signings and build something long term even if we went down again. Long term sustainability should be the goal

                        well

                        well the problem is that in 57 seasons of following qpr the 24 th of may was our greatest day all the old boys came out the woodwork and if we could get there this season
                        then we must once more get the forty thousand flags put into the back of the seats
                        WOW WOW WOW

                              Whilst unlikely please dont forget this QPR 67 2-0 down come back and win 3-2
                              conversely 86 QPR should beat Oxford and we get hammered.

                              If nothing else following rangers has taught me to expect the unexpected so
                              dont rule anything out.

                              We meet Derby in the playoff final and win 1-0 with a Keogh og
