Warburton on thin ice at QPR after poor run continues
Mark Warburton’s future as QPR manager is in doubt following Saturday’s 1-1 draw against Wycombe.
The result extended Rangers’ winless run to seven matches and they have won just one of their past 10.
The club’s hierarchy are now reviewing Warburton’s position, and potential options should they decide to make a change either now or after the Christmas period if results have not improved.
Those options could be limited by a number of factors, including the Covid-19 situation and financial restrictions the club are currently hampered by.
Warburton took over in May 2019 and enjoyed a solid first campaign at the helm, with his team finishing 13th in the Championship.
This season has been a struggle, with Ebere Eze, Jordan Hugill and Nahki Wells – the main sources of goals last term – having all moved on.
Recent results and performances have caused concern and left Rangers 19th in the table, just four points above the relegation zone.
It could lead to Warburton losing his job and assistant manager John Eustace being placed in caretaker charge.

Pulis is the Manager I want
He knows the Championship backwards,
Warburton it is reported to have brought in 9 players in last window, how many of those where of any use? Jury’s out on Dykes as he has had abysmal service from players around him, he scores for Scotland as believe it or not when he plays for them he has better players around him who do give him a service, QPR need players who are prepared to give the striker a chance, so Dykes stays up front.
Any of us QPR fans can see and name the duds, take your choice

Warburton should do the correct thing and step down. There is no point in sacking him and going to that expense. If the gutless wonder doesn’t resign, we will have to stick with him until his contract is up in the summer. Though, I feel that could see us go down..

A good mate of mine coaches the U15’s at one of our rivals and I asked him the philosophy of Possession Based Play. – “The purpose of keeping possession is to pull opposing players out of position, particularly defenders which creates space for shots on goal” So if we were a good possession based side we’d create loads of shots on goal then ???? No more slagging the ref off with “You don’t know what your doing” that’s reserved for Warburton !!

Time for reviewing,has long gone,just watch any game rerun and that will tell you everything you need to know in minutes,having done that sack the man who is responsible for our current plight and anyone else who agrees with him.Employ a Pearson, or Bilic or anyone but make sure they have the know-how to coach a team from scratch for that is where we are.

At least we WILL be rid when we are in div1 next season, the new manager can then concentrate on getting us back up.

Im pretty well past caring now ref:- Covid, league position, losing & drawing too many games, no defence, no money, no guidance, no game plan, no change in style, no hope.

Losing Amos for the season has made a poor situation bad. The lack of good strikers is a problem.

How much longer do the board at QPR need for the penny to drop, Nigel Pearson, Slaven Bilic, both available, both with experience of sorting these dire situations out , please please somone get it into their thick sculls it has to change now!!!! Or we are down.

Watford sack their manager and they are 5th and this idiot is on thin ice and the board are reviewing the situation ! We couldn’t give The Shepherds Bush Girl Guides second XI a decent game at the moment !
