Relegation Commemorative Souvenir Podcast

The QPR Podcast boys are back, assessing the state of the club after the 6-0 defeat at Manchester City and subsequent relegation. It's not pretty.

The defeat at City was preceded by a typically self-centred television interview with Joey Barton where he called out "bad eggs" in the QPR dressing room and said they'd hampered the club's attempts to stay up. A 6-0 defeat later and we were being treated, once again, to stories of mercenary footballers refusing to sit on the bench, or sitting on the bench and refusing to go on.

It all seems horribly reminiscent of the 2012/13 disaster, and leaves the club heading back to the Championship in a parlous state. The boys discuss the fall out, and wonder just how long QPR can trot out this "lessons learnt" line and expect the long suffering support to take it seriously.

Host David Fraser and podcast founders Paul Finney and Chris Mendes and Paul Finney are joined by guest Jim Evans.
