    Luton for me.

    Nathan Jones and that squad just seem to fit. Not saying play-offs, but could see mid-table.

    Similar to us. Again, consolidate and push up.

    Got to do what Brentford and Millwall did - just keep finishing that bit higher each year and adding to the squad etc. It give financial stability and attracts higher quality.

    There isn't anything wrong with saying 'dark horse', there aren't any racist connotations. It was horse racing parlance in the 19th century. The PC brigade can get back in their box.

    There is no pc brigade on this. Someone raised a non issue to attack pc.
    People can say dark horse to their heart's content.

    My dark horses are Stoke.

    There’s nothing wrong in saying dark horse as Churton has just posted.
    This saying it’s the PC brigade etc is just an attack by racists trying to make a non point and discredit people who are fighting proper racism by certain people to justify their very racist attacks which are very obvious on here

    Dark Horse is nothing to do with race, but the first recorded use of it is in a novel by Benjamin Disraeli (The Young Duke). Should we use a term that was invented by one of the people responsible for what the Conservative Party has now become...

    The racists getting outraged once again that they can’t say a phrase in a thread where that phrase has been used multiple times with literally nobody preventing them from doing so...

    QPR have had a phenomenal second half of the season. Personally I don't think Birmingham will carry their good form on. They have dug in to get results when it mattered, but their squad looks very poor on paper.
