So QPR need a point to stay up unless Bolton beat Stoke 10 - 0 at Stoke.
Mark Hughes if you are reading please play this player at the Etihad on Sunday

It's difficult to see any other result than a QPR defeat but with Mark Hughes it's extra personal so you never know......

Really would like to see Barton (and ergo QPR) relegated

Say what you like about Steve Kean, he lacks nothing in confidence in his own ability. Who else would be so sure if himself after taking his team down after a solid year of the fans calling for his head...

“I believe I’ll be here, yes,” Kean said. “I’ll sit down with the owners and discuss a plan about building a squad for next season, so we can bounce back up straightaway."

“We’ve lost a lot of experience over the last six months in particular, so we have to keep the majority of the squad together as best we can.

FFS, take a reality check man. You are the manager who agreed it was OK to sell those players!

I seem to remember when Kean was appointed after big Sam got the sack Kean and the Indian owners were resetting aspirations for Champions League. Instead big Sams new team could be swapping places with his old team.

Did he?

It seems under the new owners they have become a selling club. If you are not allowed to retain your best players and are not given any resource to replace them then why should you be blamed.

The fans aren't happy with anything up there and they shouldn't be- but is it really this man's fault? He is a victim of poor circumstance just like Hodgson was at Liverpool.

Right, but hEs always full of this "the owners and I have a plan" crap. If he didnt point out that selling the best players and not replacing them was going to likely result in relegation, then he should be fired for negligence. If he went along with it as a good idea then he should be fired for incompetence. If he pointed it out and they went ahead anyway, and he thinks anything will change now, then hes even more delusional than I thought, and I didnt think that was possible. He is the most delusional man in world football. If the owners are undermining him then really he should have walked while he still had any credibility left.

I used to feel a bit sorry for him, but its too much now.

I seem to have stepped into some parallel universe where people are rooting for Liverpool. I'll have to go sit down for a few minutes now I think...
