Rangers head to Portugal

Tue, 14 Feb 17:07:02 2012

QPR took advantage of their two-week break by flying to the Algarve for a warm-weather training camp.

The Barclays Premier League strugglers do not play this weekend following last month's FA Cup exit and manager Mark Hughes decided to take the squad away for a week.

The club were unable to train at their Harlington headquarters during the cold snap and spent most of last week at Loftus Road.

Hughes told www.qpr.co.uk: "We're going to Portugal to get some work done because we're struggling at our training ground.

"We have had to train at the stadium and we need to give that a break.

"It will give us the opportunity to have a couple of sessions a day and have a real understanding of what type of personalities we have and how they react to situations."

  2. Superhoop Steve is right, pensioners like Chelsea only­ sprout off when the're loosing. They want to get­ their own house in order, before slagging other teams­ off. Anyway by the end of next week, when they are out­ of the fa cup, 2 or 3 goals down in the first leg of­ the champions league, we can all go on their page and­ laugh at them. lol Europa cup next year, MAYBE, HA HA.­ COME ON YOU RRRRRRRRs

  3. does anyone else find it quite strange when chelsea­ fans come on a qpr page and comment. It is probably the­ only place they can get intelligent comments but­ perhaps with only two wins in ten and idiotic hopes of­ a champions league place you ought to concentrate on­ your own team.

  4. I think QPR have a good team easily capable of staying­ up. like born to run said we need to put the pieces in­ the right place. Qpr in places showed they can play­ very well. If we can do that for 90mins no bad lucj­ someone is in for a thrashing!! Come on QPR now a 7­ point gap but i would be happy to finish 16th.

  5. Let's face it Ranger's,weve been having a­ pretty a pretty torrid time of late,but don't worry­ about critic's from the Media,cause we know you can­ open up the gate,
    Barton can lead by example if he­ put's down his twitter,as a team we will flourish­ and bloom,like the changing of season's we'll­ see changing of QPR,Let's win every game starting­ soon.

  6. All 3 comments below me dont make any sense because the­ past is the past and what happens the next few games­ will decide our fate.Its obvious to anybody that has a­ clue about Football that QPR have no team chemistry­ right now with all the new faces and if Hughes cannot­ get the right pieces playing together we are­ doomed.They need this practice to get the best 11 and­ the correct formation going into the Fulham game which­ is a must win and the warm weather is the best place­ for this work IMO.Its hard for any QPR fan to blame­ Hughes because his top Players are playing like dogs­ and the system is broken so he will have to earn his­ pay right now .

  8. Comment hidden due to its low rating. Show

    They deserve a holiday before the shock of going back­ to places nice and cold and wet next winter, places­ like Barnsley and Peterborough. Hughes wont be going­ though cos he will walk and blame the chairman or the­ players or something...........
