Lol , you got less points than we had this time last year Stan and a damn sight less money to spend in the transfer window.
More chance of you being lower league than Ipswich come May.

"Lol , you got less points than we had this time last year Stan and a damn sight less money to spend in the transfer window." This is true but...
a) Burnley are the most improved team up there.
b) Only Man City (12) have hit the crossbar or post more often than Burnley (11) in the top flight this season.
c) Rangers are the only league side in England yet to claim an away point this season.
d) They have lost 13 of their 14 most recent away games in the Premier League, including the last 10.
e) Their last away win in the top flight was by 2-1 at Southampton in March 2013.
f) Rangers have allowed their opponents more shots on target than any other team in the top flight (111) this season.
After being behind away against Man City and Newcastle in the last two league games Burnley finished both games disappointed not to have won both!
If QPR can get anything from todays game it will be the surprise of the season so far.
So as you can see, the table does lie on this occasion. Get your money on them to stay up and it will be the best investment you ever make.
... Burnley to get relegated? Your aving a laff -):

It's hard work being a professional footballer!
Liverpool's Raheem Sterling missed his side's Premier League win at Sunderland on Saturday as he soaked up the sun in Jamaica.
He posted a picture online of himself (external) wearing sunglasses and a floppy sunhat.
Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers said he had "always planned" to give the 20-year-old - who has played more minutes than any other outfield player in the Premier League this season - a break.
Liverpool beat Sunderland 1-0 despite six other players being ruled out.
Earlier in the season, Sterling was left out of the starting line-up for England's European Championship qualifier against Estonia after complaining of fatigue on the eve of the match.
Rodgers told the Liverpool Echo (external) that Sterling's mid-season break "was always in the plan".
The manager added: "If we're going to maximise what we can get out of him, then he needs that bit of recovery time.
"A period of rest and the recuperation will do him the world of good. It's been a gruelling first half of the season for him with a lot of matches and a lot of work."
He was also given permission to miss the 2-1 FA Cup third round victory against AFC Wimbledon on Monday.
Sterling is set to return to training next week ahead of the Premier League match against Aston Villa.
Speaking before the game against Sunderland on Football Focus, former Liverpool defender and BBC pundit Mark Lawrenson questioned the decision.
"By all means leave him out of the cup tie against a lower division side," he said.
"But, they are chasing a Champions League place, so I think he should be playing."
Fellow pundit Martin Keown added: "He's entitled to a rest, but I don't think it sends out the right message letting him go abroad."

Burnley moved out of the Premier League relegation zone with victory over QPR, who replaced them in the bottom three.
Scott Arfield opened the scoring for the hosts, beating two challenges before curling in from the left.
QPR levelled through a Charlie Austin penalty, after the former Burnley man was tripped by Dean Marney.
But Danny Ings won it, taking down a high ball and finishing to extend Burnley's unbeaten run to three and move them a point above the drop zone.
Burnley should have scored more then the two but it's 3 pts that count.

Yes Ings is getting back into his stride DB along with Barnes, also with Volks on his way back from injury things are looking better up front.

Southampton fans are truly grateful to Liverpool, United and Spurs, without them they wouldn't have signed a great Dutch manager!
