    Steve's pleased with QPR

    "A perfectly written script"

    Does he think we'll beat them? - view external link

    I think it's more to do with him being a coach there early on in the season. So he knows the set up and the players, more so than any other team in the league probably.

    Like all of us, I'm sure he knows we can beat them, and that they can beat us.

    'The Mac' is usually quite reserved when bigging up his team's chances but maybe this is the time for him to give some fighting talk...

    Won't be a perfectly written script if we lose!

    Hasn't done bad for us so far, why change it!

    I agree, but I just think he might use a bit more fighting talk in the next week or so so that Redknapp doesn't try to patronize or belittle us with a remark here or there. Who knows

    I think if that were to happen it'd play perfectly into our hands.

    I would be well happy for all the talk to be about us being underdogs and for them to come and underestimate us with their big money players!

    With the bookies, they're underdogs but only just! Bookies have it down as what it is likely to be, an extremely close game. SkyBet have us as 4/5 favourites while QPR are evens.

    Despite this I still think the pressure is on them. We've overachieved, they've dramatically underachieved. If they don't go up it could spell the end for a lot of them, maybe Redknapp. If we don't go up, we use it as a lesson for next season and push on harder & finish higher than we did this year, and we all know what that would result in.

    He already alluded to bigging up the fact that we are underdogs and QPR have more experience. He clearly sees that as an advantage, he'll be saying the opposite to the players though.
