When Do You Start taking The Table Seriously?

normally i would say after christmas but hey ho its us so now

always good to have points on the board at an early stage teams are now playing catch up

What you say sounds sensible Dazzer and as a veteran QPR supporter I'm all in favour of not getting too carried away for obvious reasons but there was a good analysis last week in - I think - the Guardian that showed something like only one team in the last 10 years that had been leading the table at this stage of the season failed to get promoted (a stato like Sir Pie might come up with the exact statistic) but the general point that came out loud and clear was that the top two places are almost always effectively decided pretty early because early form is not chance but an accurate guide to who are the best two teams. The play off place might be a different story.

mate havent QPR proved so many times that if anyone can screw something like that up, its QPR?

Much prefer to achieve safety by November, play off spot by January, promotion by February and then relax and enjoy the records tumbling.

Now that would be nice!

I start taking the table seriously normally after I've heard what the chair has had to say first.

har har! had to laugh at that one.
