QPR have played three friendlies so far. They begun with a 5-0 win over Stevenage before they lost 6-0 to Castellon. Their last friendly saw them beat Toulouse 2-1.

Cardiff drew 2-2 with Johor before wins against Southend and Cambridge.

Team, looks like a different team in each half again.

Rubin and Robinson play in the first half:

On paper that midfield should dominate league one.

Hopefully Will Fish has just got a niggle, hence why he isn't in the squad. And he's not going elsewhere, because I think hes the best CB we've got.
Does anybody know if Ng is injured? Personally wouldn't bother me if he was leaving, but as he hasn't been involved at all not sure whether he's injured.

Don't think it has ever been marketed or seen as white, always been a sort of light green colour.

Yes he’s injured and will be injured the entire window. He will be here to stay.

It's a mess, keeps asking me to buy a pass.

We've been superb so far. Brilliant work by Colwill to win the ball back for the goal.

We are so aggressive off the ball, night and day compared to last season

1-0 City

Good finish by Robinson

Not sure what team this is for QPR, but you'd say they are the league 1 team from the opening exchanges. This midfield 3 just running the show, Turnbull is finding all sorts of pockets and getting us driving forward.

Unable to watch. Hows kpakio doing? Is he going to be our starting RB for the season?

A few really good runs forward.

Definitely seems to be in prime position to start against Peterborough.

Great goal to be fair.

Looked okay going forward but has struggled a bit IMO.

2-1 now
