QPR v Wigan

Well we win 2-1. Goals from Field and Balogun to add to our list of different scorers this season!

Sounds like we weren't at our flowing best but got over the line to stay top for another week.

A shame Burnley turned it around against Sunderland.

If the mark of a title-winning team is winning when not playing anything near their best, then we should do well this season because that was a hard watch, especially in the second half.

Wigan were worth a point, and had the best player on the pitch in Nathan Broadhead. They tried to do to us what we have done to other teams, a constant high press; and were increasingly more successful doing it in the second half as we dropped deeper and deeper and found it difficult to keep the ball.
Having named the same starting eleven as Cardiff, we looked more and more tired as the match progressed. One - Johansen, (possibly 2?) - more players off with knocks today, and Field stayed on despite also seeming to carry a knock. Touch wood...

Having said that, Wigan's best effort, the Josh Magennis woodwork rattler, should never have stood if it had gone in, as 2 QPR players were flattened in two different incidents in the build up to that effort - VAR can't come soon enough to the Championship. I thought the referee let a lot of more than borderline fouls go today.

This is so unexpected and therefore even more enjoyable. I’m trying not to get my hopes up for the rest of the season.

Just watched the game and credit to Wigan who looked a decent team. Sometimes you need to grind out a result and that's exactly what we had to do.

I agree that several players looked tired but not playing your best and still getting 3 points is a positive. Willock is our talisman and a major miss so winning matches without him has to give the rest of the squad a big boost.

Leon Balogun had a superb game.

I actually find myself agreeing with you Rosco Bosco, you make a good argument.

But I still dislike VAR

C'mon jimjams, we're QPR, we never get it when it really counts.  
Just ask Charlie Austin if he wanted VAR against Sunderland in the Caribou Cup.

p.s. pen or no pen, we should have put half a dozen past Cardiff!
