Play offs (or not) 08:45 - Mar 7 with 6528 views | TheChef | While there is much wailing and gnashing of teeth about our drop in form - and whether we will make the play offs or not - are we missing the key question? If we do make it into the play offs, does anyone actually expect us to win them? IMO if we do make the play offs it would be a fantastic achievement. But do I think we'll win them and get promoted? No. | ![](/images/avatars/2559.gif) |

Play offs (or not) on 08:59 - Mar 7 with 4529 views | Rangers67 | Well me might win them as it is a bit of a lottery but the thing is it,s a real dilemma. Because the money that promotion would bring would help stabellise the club . But we would be cannon fodder like Norwich for the vast majority of the clubs in the Prem without an overhaul of the playing staff. I think I would prefer this season to maybe consolidate on MW good work so far and make a real push next year. The obvious problem being the three teams coming down having vastly more financial resources than we do will skew the chances in their favour. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
Play offs (or not) on 09:02 - Mar 7 with 4514 views | Rs_Holy | no chance of getting past the semi's but it would be a little bit exciting in the build up and would give us something to build on. | ![](/images/avatars/3053.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
Play offs (or not) on 09:06 - Mar 7 with 4500 views | wood_hoop | What a difficult conumdrum, play offs we still have a reasonable chance but winning them will test us to the limit. But then that's why the play offs exist, the best of the four remaining from the championship don't always win, it is hard to envisage us doing that currently but you never know, I am a supreme optomist and lady luck will need to be on our side. I imagine MW and his staff will be tearing their hair out with the way we have played recently, now is his chance to proove he walks the walk and drag his players with him. We can only keep supporting him, thata why we are here, talk of replacing him is imo tantamount to defeat before you even kick a ball. They have a week to get things in place to correct the malaise of recent weeks whatever they are, but he is in the driving seat and show us it is not a fluke as to why there was so much inspiation in the previous 12 months or so. In Warbs I trust.......... | ![](/images/avatars/1899.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
Play offs (or not) on 09:23 - Mar 7 with 4423 views | Terry49 | I believe that promotion this season is vital as many of the current squad will not be here next season for sure. Some will be sold and some will be past their best.Are we sure MW would stay. The money we will get would solve our financial problems not least relying on the owners dipping their hands in their pockets every month to keep us going. How long will they be prepared to carry on doing that.Yes we may not survive more than one season but there will be enough teams we should be able to get points off especially if we could get back to days when we won most home games and made LF Road a fortress | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
Play offs (or not) on 09:30 - Mar 7 with 4384 views | Hooparoo | I think we’ve completely fcked it up. 5 points from the last 8 (all winnable) games is tragic. So bloody typical QPR. Why the fck did I choose this bloody club when I was 8? A lifetime of football heartache and self flagellation. I’ve just let my live subscription lapse as I’ve had enough of watching this latest train wreck. Totally fcking over it 😬 | ![](/images/avatars/1658.gif) |

Play offs (or not) on 09:39 - Mar 7 with 4364 views | LazyFan | I doubt we shall make the playoffs, I think 7th. Hendrick is decent but has not really made a difference. He looks useful, but it has just not worked out so far. Willock and Chair are exhausted, JoJo and Wallace keep getting injured. And Dykes is the same. We need another Dykes really. Summer xfer window me thinks. | ![](/images/avatars/1596.gif) |

Play offs (or not) on 09:52 - Mar 7 with 4328 views | dmm | Being in a play off position must have been the realistic target at the beginning of the season so achieving that would give Warburton, his staff and the players a real boost. However - stating the bleedin' obvious I know - unless we regain our best form leading into them, I don't see us standing much chance of winning them. | ![](/images/avatars/28176.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
Play offs (or not) on 09:53 - Mar 7 with 4319 views | BklynRanger | I wouldn't expect us to win them but think we could. We'd have to have built right back up to our very best form, and probably exceed it on the day, individually and across the team, and fitness-wise. But these are one-off games, teams can choke, under perform, over perform, all of that. We really shouldn't have beat Derby on the day but found a way to, with a bit of help from Keogh obviously. But overall we'd need to remember quite a few things that recently seem to have been forgotten so I won't be betting on it. | ![](/images/avatars/2096.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
Play offs (or not) on 09:59 - Mar 7 with 4298 views | Hastings_Hoops | Reaching the playoffs would be a sign of progress and a springboard to a further advance next season… and that includes selling two or three assets and buying four or five new assets to make a better squad. | ![](/images/avatars/25446.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
Play offs (or not) on 10:04 - Mar 7 with 4285 views | daveB | I'm in the worry about that if it happens camp. I think we are capable making the top 6 and that would be a good season. Of the teams likely to be in the playoffs I think it's only Boro and Sheff Utd who I would say look better teams than us, the rest in that top half are not any better than us | ![](/images/avatars/1922.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Charlie's wife had Covid so he couldn't play and now he is ill, which may be a bug or Covid, so not a lot he or the club can do about that apart from get him better and fit asap. It's a shame Charlie has struggled for fitness and form over the last few months. I still think he has a lot to offer. I very much like the style of football we play but it isn't always suited to a traditional forward. We may have to tweak it for Charlie, Lyndon and Andre because they don't always get a lot of service in the way we play. | ![](/images/avatars/1510.gif) |

Play offs (or not) on 10:22 - Mar 7 with 4207 views | BlackAndGoldRanger | If we are truly serious about making the playoffs then these next 2 away games will show us. Lose them both and it's off to the beach for some players, 1 point the same. 4 points and we are right in the mix. Then an inevitable home loss to Peterborough..... There should be no excuses about tiredness or fatigue, we just had a week off. Now another one. Then an international break (after Posh). Time to show us if they really want it. Personally I think it's gone. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
Play offs (or not) on 12:33 - Mar 7 with 3980 views | whittocksRs | If were to make the playoffs, we've got a one in four chance of promotion. The top six at the end of the season are all good teams and everyone has a chance, even if certain teams look stronger than others. The problem is we're not looking like we've got the legs to get one of the spots. My guess is we end up somewhere like ninth. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

I had a very similar conversation with a Stoke supporting work colleague a few seasons ago... I said I had been through a few trial separations in the past but I always ended up back at Loftus Road... 'I just cant do the full on divorce thing'. He said it was a bit like the song Hotel California for him... 'You can check-out any time you like, But you can never leave!' [Post edited 9 Mar 2022 7:31]

Agree. Nonsense to talk about how we could care in the Play - Offs - as we won't be in them. The players seem to think that as well. Any top ten finish would be still a job well done for the season for me personally - but I understand a lot will feel disappointed with that...after being up there for so long. This slump hasn't really come as too much of a shock to me if I'm honest. We can learn from this in the long run. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Play offs (or not) on 07:26 - Mar 9 with 3317 views | davman | Looks like we are dropping like a stone, but so many times in recent years, draw sparks a little revival and we turn losing runs into winning runs. We are still within sight of the payoffs, so it hasn't gone Yet. The worry we have is that Luton, Udders, Sheff U, Florist are all on good runs and could well be entering I to the playoffs on top form. Always need to start poorly, grow into the season then charge for the playoffs, not start well, collapse, then limp in to the playoffs. Some blame Chair's return for our demise, but I can't help but look at Hendrick. Nothing against him, but it appeared to be a gratuitous signing at the time and team spirit and balance has just not seemed right since he came in the team. Of course, that could be simply because we are losing, but something appears off at the moment... | ![](/images/avatars/1742.gif) |

I have to agree. Even if we only beat last years total by 5 or 6 points it would still signify progress which we should try and replicate next season...Steady progress each season is the way forward imho | ![](/images/avatars/3053.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
