How QPR's season unravelled under Mark Warburton as once-promising tenure comes to end

At the end of January, QPR were fourth in the Championship – only two points and a game in hand away from the automatic promotion places.

Fans were hailing it as the best season since an Adel Taarabt-led team took the Championship by storm in 2010/11. But three months later, manager Mark Warburton looks set to leave the club. Speaking on Thursday, per West London Sport, he said: “I think if [staying] was the case, communication about contract talks would already have been held.

“But my job, rest assured, is that while you are in post you do the job to the best of your ability and that will always be the case.” QPR fans have a lot to thank Warburton for. Despite the poor end to this season, during his tenure QPR have gone from a team constantly looking over their shoulder in fear of relegation to a solid top-half side.
