Jamie Mackie is continuing to make good progress as he works hard to overcome a double leg break which ended his season in January.
The R's forward suffered the injury during our FA Cup fixture at Blackburn, and Head Physio Nigel Cox has complimented the work ethic of the 25 year-old.
"Jamie has been doing really well," Cox told www.qpr.co.uk. "He has worked very hard throughout the summer and has done everything he can to speed up the recovery process.
"His own personal aim was to be fit for our first game of the season, although that was always going to be a very tight target.
"When we previously saw the surgeon he was happy for Jamie to step up his rehab, which he has done recently with some outdoor running.
"We visited the surgeon again last week for a check-up, and it appears the fracture site itself needs a little more time to heal, so we need to be careful.
"It's a mother-nature thing more than anything else. There is nothing Jamie could have done which would have helped speed up this part of the process, it is simply a case of waiting for the bone to heal.
"It means Jamie's target will have to be adjusted but the good thing is that he is a naturally fit lad and very strong."..................http://www.qpr.co.uk/page/NewsDetail...393713,00.html
