Queens Park Rangers have had a wretched run of form as of late and have seen themselves tumble down the table to be on the brink of a relegation battle.

Steve McClaren’s side have had a problematic few weeks on the pitch having lost their last six matches in the league – a run that extends to seven with their FA Cup defeat to Watford last weekend.

In our latest round-up, then, we’re taking a look at all things Hoops on and off the pitch.

Poor form continues

QPR lost a five-goal thriller against West Brom in midweek as their poor form continued to see them drop down to 18th in the table and just ten points off the bottom three.

The defeat left the Hoops without a win in their last eight games in the League after a small unbeaten run.

Next up for the Hoops is Middlesbrough this weekend but McClaren signed off the sucker-punch remaining optimistic.

Huge injury concern for McClaren

QPR ended the game with ten men after Luke Freeman was forced off in the 84th minute and is likely to miss this weekend’s match with Middlesbrough.

The midfielder came off with what looked to be a hip problem with the club hopeful the injury is not too bad as first thought so he can return to the side for the visit of promotion contenders Leeds United.

QPR to leave west London?

The west London club are in discussions with authorities over a new stadium after expressing their thoughts that their current Loftus Road home is “unsustainable” for the long-term future.

Rangers are keen to move to the nearby athletics stadium, but the land is owned by Hammersmith and Fulham Council.

"If the council do not want QPR to be involved in its redevelopment then that is their choice," chief executive Lee Hoos told the club website.

Hoos says the club wants to remain in Hammersmith & Fulham "if at all possible" but has stressed Linford Christie Stadium is their "last chance" to stay in the borough.

Wells deal looks dead in the water

Finally, a permanent deal for Nahki Wells looks to be beyond the London club at present with the Burnley man’s loan set to end at the end of the current season.

QPR chief executive Hoos admitted that the likelihood would be the striker would return to his Premier League parent club.

Wells is the club’s joint scorer this season with Freeman and Hoos commented fellow loanees Tomer Hemed and Geoff Cameron.

"You never say never, but the likelihood is that they'll go back to their parent clubs.

Hoos said: "I'm sure their clubs will have their own ideas on what to do with those players as well, so we just have to see how that goes.

"One of the good things about doing a loan is that you're not committed. Instead of having a level of salary over three years, you only have it for one year, and so you can manage it on a year by year basis."
