    "Now you're gonna belive us
    Now you're gonna believe us
    Now you're gonna believe us
    The R's are staying up!"

    ...sing the fans at Loftus Road.

    A free kick was given to Luton just to the left of the box in the closing seconds, but we cleared it away.

    QPR 3, Luton Town 2
    FULL TIME

    We stay 5 points above the drop zone - but we consolidate position, gain points on Hull and pretty much send Luton down. Most importantly, it's another win - we are on fire!

    Exactly. We were 4 ahead of Leeds and gained 3 points on them as they returned to the drop zone.

    Really don't want to jinx this... but I think it will be 3 from this 5 to go down. With Luton all but finished now, it's a 4 team fight.

    No kidding. 9 points in 7 days. Wow. The buzz around Shepherds Bush at the moment has to be incredible.

    Furlong taken down, which could have kept us up...

    Went to "lunch" and watched the second half of Southampton-Sunderland, great decision. 3 quality goals, Sunderland road win takes them from worst (after first 4 matches) to first.

    Very bad news on the Ainsworth injury -- a spiral fracture of the fibula on his left leg. Ainsworth will see a specialist in the next day to assess the full extent of the injury.

    Blackstock dedicated the victory to Ainsworth.

    Gregory obviously was not happy with the news, although he relayed Ainsworth's sense of humor:
    http://www.qpr.premiumtv.co.uk/page/News/NewsDetail/0,,10373~1008813,00.html

    Cook, Rowlands, and Ainsworth are the wide men who make it work for us. Cook is the most dangerous and if we have him with one of the other two, we're pretty good. As of now, all three are out. Hopefully we'll get Cook back for the final games.

    Best wishes to Gareth as he rehabs.
