Really really want QPR to go down more than anybody else. They have been in the bottom three pretty much all season. Played like complete Sunday league teams, spent well beyond their means in salary and fees etc. the sheer arrogance of Redknap insults me. Go down saggy chops. D the decent thing though and stay there to try and get them back up

Oh that was so cruel a real twist of the knife & for all Saints fans a thing of true beauty & it couldn't have happened to bigger T**t!

Sit on that and swivel satchel face.

Perfect end to an almost perfect weekend.

Sometimes football brings the best moments, and seeing his face at the end was priceless.

 

Anything bar a Wigan win as a good one for us today, and with Sunderland losing (although expected) it makes it all the better. To be honest, looking at who Wigan have left to play, we're probably already safe to be honest. I cannot see us not picking up 3 or 4 pts from 18 available. For the first time this year I'm looking above and actually quite happy with Newcastles late win against Fulham.

I usually think of a good goal difference as being worth half a point.

 

Really can't see both Sunderland AND Wigan getting seven more points than us.

 

Time to look at aiming for top half!

Pretty good set of results - barring Liverpool failing to beat West Ham.

 

Am definitely looking upwards, we're a general 66/1 to be relegated. As any racing pundit will tell, 66/1 shots never come in...:-)

 

(P.S. Am listening to Saggy on Radio 5 now, joyous stuff. He's practically in tears. Wonderful stuff.)

Amusing reaction from a stokie on 5 Live, talking to Alan Green. Said, basically, "they are as good as down, Pulis is awful, and have you seen our run-in?" Then went on to detail their last games and reckons they might pick up a win at home to Norwich but cant see points from any other game, and finished by saying "....and our last game is away at Southampton. They're brilliant, have you seen them play lately, we wont get anything there" hahahaaaa

Thinking back over their last two "must win" fixtures, Fulham and Wigan, it seems clear that QPR's problems are between their ears. Their capacity for self-destruction has been almost unbelievable. A hundred million quid's worth of talent and about 50p's worth of brains.

Sometimes you have a game where you just go 'yup, we're down' - This was it for QPR.

 

As someone said earlier, very reminiscent of the Everton game when we got relegated, fully deserved the win and robbed in the last seconds.

 

Beautiful !

There were many parallels with Twitchy's after-match SKY interview with us after the Everton game. 'Arry bemoaning that they didn't take it to the corner and got punished for it, have to soldier on, blah blah blah. He looked a beaten man, and all he had left in his locker was to single out and praise only the players he has brought in. The man is classless to the very last.

Todays games have left us in a great position which we deserve after getting 3 wins in a row, now to focus on playing for a 11th or 12 place finish.

 

I'd like to think we will be aiming for a top ten finish!! We are only two points behind Fulham and four behind Swansea. Fulham's form has been on-off and Swansea have not won a match for a few weeks now. Above them West Brom's form has also been less than consistent, though they are seven points ahead of us so probably a bit too much of a gap for us to catch them.

 

Let's see how high we can go!! :)

Loving the barrage of text messages coming through on Arry's phone during that interview. Do you think he'll be replying to any of them?

 

Nope. He can't work a phone or ****ing read

Nothing makes me happier then seeing the demise of QPR. Im not Arrys biggest fan but not quite to the level of some but cant help but think he knows he made a huge mistake from when he signed the contract, it parallels with when he took us on, both clubs were doomed. So happy our chairman wasnt such a gambler though and basically Fernandes has said, fudge the club spend as much as you want

 

For those reasons, and for signing average players on stupid wages I hope they crash and burn

Great results for us in the end except the Newcastle result.

 

Was actually hoping for a QPR win today as I thought that'd be marginally better than a draw and definitely better than a Wigan win. Fortunately it was a draw so we got to see QPR and Wigan drop points on us and Twitchy twitching his head off of his neck at the final whistle which is always great to watch.
