I predicted 11th at the start of the season for QPR. But with the caveat that we could also finish 5th or 16th as it was hard to gauge preseason.
11 games in, having seen the league so far. The goal has to be top 8 at a minimum.
This squad is absolutely good enough. BUT.......
These accounts run by god knows who, make me feel even more disconnected to modern game.
Premier League players who moved to Real Madrid:
Hazard- Flopped
Michael Owen- Flopped
David Beckham- Flopped
Trent Alexander-Arnold- Flopped
J. Woodgate- Flopped
Anelka- Flopped
Bernardo Silva- Flopped
Dean Huijsen- Flopped
Genuinely, aside from Cristiano Ronaldo, is there any player who moved from the Premier League to Real Madrid and actually excelled?
Gutted for the bloke. Sometimes some common sense is required. Subbing on a bloke with his knee heavily strapped already, in a game that was already won.
Completely avoidable. Wish him a speedy recovery. The saving grace is, its a position we can cover.

Will the women's team donate all their national team fee's to charity, like the men do?
Steph Houghton has spoken out on the commercial pay gap between England's men's and women's sides:
"When I looked at what they [England's men] were getting for commercial deals, that really opened my eyes. The men and women play for the national teams of the same country and yet they're getting 15 times more than us. How is that fair?"
Same badge, same shirt, and a 15x difference in what the deals pay. Its a conversation that splits rooms thats for sure...
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The revenue of the men's football game in England is almost $12 billion while the women's division generates $120 million, about 1% of the men, so a 1/15th pay gap is beneficial for women compared to revenue share.

Little reality check might not be a bad thing at this point. Keep us humble.
The key issue remains, as it has been for 3 seasons now, the fitness and availability of the squad.

17 odd thousand people inside this building and not a single one benefits from 10 minutes added on. Literally not a single one.
Put these lads on ice and let Derby fans get their train.
Played 111 minutes of football there. 21 extra minutes. Im a situation like that, referees should use their noggins.

I’m not just picking them out, there’s another transfer shitshow down the road.. But we’ve got to the point where we’re debating which of Liverpools’s three signings for over £100m are worse..
…and we’re all supposed to be on your side against the free spending cheats.
It was Daphne's favourite song. Thats why we sing it after a win.
Tradition matters. People matter.
Forcing things onto people at QPR won't work, we will reject nonsense. Let it happen organically.
💙🤍 EVER WONDERED WHY QPR PLAY HI HO SILVER LINING?
For QPR, this song is about Daphne Biggs.
A much-loved figure in the Rangers family, Daphne loved the song. After her passing, the club began playing it after home victories in her memory.
Now, whenever those familiar opening notes ring out at Loftus Road, they carry a little piece of Daphne with them.
This is what R Connection is all about. The people, the memories we share and the connections that make QPR about so much more than football.
Daphne Biggs. Always remembered. 💙🤍
A big thank you to @MarkofGrove for the suggestion.

Meh. Dare I say Donnarumma has faced a more hostile atmosphere from his own fans after a contract renewal. An Argentine like Enzo Fernandez will look around him and probably think: Tame
Liverpool v City is NOT a tasty atmosphere. Its tame as.
Italy v England in Rome 29 years ago today was tasty.
This isnt.
