Well, someone is going to have to take the blame for this.
The question is though, who is going to be the main culprit for the defeat to Hull City? I suppose feelings would probably have been different if they’d have managed to hold on, but a late goal can change so much of the emotion around it.
The way that QPR managed to dominate the game in terms of possession, shots, shots on target and corners, is quite frankly baffling, so things are clearly OK going forward, but there are three real areas of concern for QPR fans coming out of the game, and all of them are somewhat culpable for what happened.
Goalkeeper Joe Lumley, the back four in general, and manager Mark Warburton all came under intense scrutiny from the fans following the game, and with the January transfer window fast approaching, the opportunity to make some changes is just around the corner.
And still we won't change manager 🙄

Can’t keep dominating games and losing points because of basic defensive errors. Lumley and Leistner consistently costing goals. Pathetic

If you carry on fielding the same goalie & defence you’ll find yourself tweeting this over and over again. 👍🏻😊

How many points will QPR get out of their next six games?
0-6
7-12
13-18
The question is, how many changes can the club realistically afford to make during the coming months? Will it be one of them, all of them, or none of them? Guess we’ll just have to wait and see.
