QPR at Season's One-Quarter Mark

-
With a game in hand over most other teams, QPR are currently 9 points away from a playoff spot and 15 points behind second place Bristol City. (The more pessimistic might note that QPR are in the relegation zone, one place off the bottom!)

STATS: QPR have 11 points from 12 games (1 home win out of 6; 1 away win out of 6). But for the last unbeaten 4 games under Mick Harford (2 wins and 8 points) the situation would look even worse. 1 point from 2 games in August; 2 points from 5 games in September; 8 points from 5 games in October. Rowlands is QPR's top scorer with 2 goals. QPR's Current Stats

Flashback QPR's team for their opening game at Bristol City, back in August:
QPR: Camp, Rehman, Stewart, Mancienne, Curtis, Rowlands, Bolder, Bailey, Moore, Blackstock (Nygaard 69), Nardiello (Ephraim 59). Subs: Bignot, Cullip, Cole.
[Ben Sahar had appendicitis just prior to the game.)

And QPR's team for Saturday's win at Charlton:
QPR: Camp, Barker, Stewart, Mancienne, Bolder, Rowlands, Ephraim, Vine, Nygaard, Leigertwood, Cranie. Subs: Cole, Bignot, Ainsworth, Sahar, Moore

Last season after 12 games, QPR had 13 points (under Waddock and Gregory).

On this date last season: October 31, 2006, with all teams having played 3 games more, QPR were three places higher, and had 15 points (from 15 games). In QPR's game on this day last year, QPR came from 0-2 to draw 3-3 at WBA.Reports
