Market7 Sep 2026

Elijah Dixon-Bonner asks to leave Queens Park Rangers

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Match5 Sep 2026

Queens Park Rangers make it 3 in a row

Momentum is a hard thing to buy and an easy thing to lose, and right now Queens Park Rangers have 3 straight wins of it.

Player ratings7 Sep 2026

Ilias Chair runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 23. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Tempers go at Queens Park Rangers

Ilias Chair was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Rumarn Burrell falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Match5 Sep 2026

Queens Park Rangers find a way past Milton Keynes Dons

Milton Keynes Dons made Queens Park Rangers work for it, but the scoreboard read 2‑1 at the end and the table does not ask how.

Squad7 Sep 2026

No hiding place for George Pratt

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to George Pratt, and the manager let it.

Player ratings7 Sep 2026

Richard Koné was the difference for Queens Park Rangers

Marked 7.78. Ask anyone leaving the ground what settled it and you will get one name, which is the only award that has ever really counted.

Market7 Sep 2026

Talks stall between Queens Park Rangers and Steve Cook

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.

From our football correspondent Upbeat

Market24 Aug 2026

Esquerdinha puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Queens Park Rangers, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Kwame Poku in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Queens Park Rangers this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Words at Queens Park Rangers training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Jimmy Dunne is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Match22 Aug 2026

Queens Park Rangers get the job done against Bristol City

A 2‑1 win over Bristol City, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Squad24 Aug 2026

The manager makes an example of Rumarn Burrell

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

The terraces24 Aug 2026

The crowd has taken to Max Dean

At 22 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

Player ratings24 Aug 2026

Richard Koné in the eights

A performance of 8.09 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

Squad24 Aug 2026

6 new faces, and Queens Park Rangers are still learning each other

A squad rebuilt inside one window pays for it in a currency nobody budgets for. The football is not worse than the sum of the players; it is worse than the sum of the players who have played together before.

Market24 Aug 2026

Queens Park Rangers put Rumarn Burrell up for sale

The list is a quiet document with a loud meaning. Rumarn Burrell may talk to anybody who asks, and everybody at the club understands what that means.

From our football correspondent Crisis

Market17 Aug 2026

Bristol City come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Queens Park Rangers did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Market17 Aug 2026

Patrick Schmidt arrives at Queens Park Rangers in a $2.6M statement of intent

There comes a point where a club either backs its own ambition or admits it does not have any. Queens Park Rangers have paid $2.6M for Patrick Schmidt, which is the loudest way there is of saying which one it chose.

Squad17 Aug 2026

George Pratt gets the move he always wanted

Footballers are asked about their boyhood club so often that nobody listens to the answer. George Pratt has just signed for Queens Park Rangers, and for once the answer mattered.

Market17 Aug 2026

Isaac Hayden moves on

West Ham United pay $2.4M, and the deal is done. The number reads well on a balance sheet; whether it reads well on the pitch is next season's question.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Ilias Chair in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Queens Park Rangers this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Boardroom17 Aug 2026

5 academy players handed senior numbers at Queens Park Rangers

The morning the pathway stops being a brochure and becomes a team sheet. Most of them will not be here in three years; all of them have already done the hard part, which was getting to today.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Nicolas Madsen gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Market17 Aug 2026

Queens Park Rangers promote George Carter from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. George Carter has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

Match15 Aug 2026

A bad afternoon for Queens Park Rangers against Charlton Athletic

0‑1 to Charlton Athletic, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

In brief
