Premier League: QPR on the brink of relegation after home defeat by Stoke

QPR are on the verge of relegation from the Premier League after slipping to a disappointing 2-0 defeat to Stoke at Loftus Road.

Harry Redknapp knows his side need something special to stay up. "It will take a miracle now. It is almost impossible," he told Sky Sports. "We had a go, but maybe we are short of that bit of quality needed in this league." Tony Pulis was keen to reiterate that his side still had time to get the points they needed. "It was a great result for us today," Pulis told Sky Sports. "But even if we would have lost, we still had four games to get the points we needed to stay up. "It was important the players understood it wasn't do or die."
