Just been watching a few highlights of that season, mad to think that season we beat Chelsea, Arsenal, Spurs and Liverpool at home.

Poll: Of the 3 linked away, who do you think will still be a QPR player come February?

We won our last five home games starting with that brilliant night at home to Liverpool.
Arsenal, Spurs, Swansea and Stoke were the others I think.
In typical Hughes fashion we managed to lose all of our last five away games though.

also mad to think we'd have gone down had we not beaten Liverpool, and it was 2-0 with 9 mins lft, 2-1 with two mins left!

Bare bones.

Coincidentally I was watching the highlights of that the other day (I am getting a new Sky box so am transferring the bits I want to keep from my old one) and we were dead and practically buried when that second goal went in. I remember being in X Block that night and having a horrible sinking feeling. Amazing turn around that night. One of my best moments of QPR. Top 5 deffo.

That was a mental night. Made even sweeter by the fact I'd brought a mad keen scouser Liverpool fan along with me. He was up the back of MU with me when all the pandemonium kicked off.

He was all up for a drink after the match before the game. But made a swift exit at the final whistle.

He would NOT have enjoyed the C&S.

The Liverpool game was the only home game I missed all year. I got stuck in a committee meeting which went on and on and on.

By the time I left work, I could only have got there about 10 mins into the second half, and given that we were destined to lose (so I thought) I went home. I felt justified by the time I came out of the Underground at Finsbury Park to see they were 2 up.

Something made me check as I was on the train... the BBC text said we were all over them at 2-1. I turned the radio on and was yelling and leaping around the street (I had got off the train by now) having people look at me weirdly as the goals went in.

but I missed the "I was there" moment

Why stop now, just when I'm hating it

Don't think we were 2-0 down with only 9mins to go and 2-1 with 2mins to go.

Thought we pulled one back around 76mins and then equalised on 85 with the winner in injury time?

An amazing come back from virtually being dead n buried none the less of course.

I took an American friend to that game. Big baseball, hockey and gridiron fan. Used to big crowds in American stadiums. He said it was the most exciting finish and atmosphere he'd ever experienced in live sport.

I was with a liverpool fan too. Poor bstard. Just sort of had to take it as I went absolutely mental.
He did come for a drink though, because he's a legend.

I almost didn’t bother, dropped a client at Ladbroke Grove around 20 minutes after kickoff got to the bush looking for a parking place was just about to give up then found one so got in to the ground just before half time, after they went 2 up was thinking why did I bother, but one of the best comebacks ever in the history of the world 😀

Worth watching Dalglish's typically begrudging interview afterwards. I admire that man in many, many ways, but my God he was a bad loser!

That was a night to say thank you to Kenny Dalgleish.

Suarez was the best player we saw at the Bush that season, he destroyed us!
Kenny took him off though & brought on Andrew Carroll. Thank you Kenneth!

We all piled back to The Green for an impromptu session after that Liverpool game. There was a Match of the Day on that night at 11 and just as it was starting the landlord said he was closing. He was told in no uncertain terms he absolutely was not.

Can we please stop going on about that Liverpool game. I was stuck in the Albert Hall taking ageing dad to some flipping cultural concert (with my phone text vibrating away).

It still tortures me.

Thanks in advance.

So did I.My daughter was 9 and we had to get home to Suffolk for her school the following morning.The last train from Liverpool st was at 10.30,which was followed by a bus replacement service after that train.That meant we wouldn’t have got home until 1am so we left on 90 mins content with a draw.
We got just past the springbok and heard a roar but it didn’t sound like it was loud enough for our fans,and we thought Liverpool had scored the winner.
It was only when we got to the platform at white city and I checked my phone that we realised we’d won it in injury time.

I was there. Absolutely breathless and bonkers at the end of that game. One of my favourite 3-2 results that I have witnessed over the years....

1 of the truly great floodlit nights at our completely amazing shiithole of a ground.

Those nights (Oldham etc) are the stuff of legend

Kerry's header was just in front of us and the celebration was amazing, for Mackie to nutmeg their keeper for the winner mental
