(27 April 1996, FA Premier League) (3 October 1995, League Cup) During the 1995–96 English football season, Queens Park Rangers competed in the FA Premier League.

Season summary

One player never makes a team, but QPR felt the loss of prolific striker Les Ferdinand following his £6 million move to Newcastle United.

The last three seasons had seen QPR finish fifth, ninth and eighth in the FA Premier League thanks largely to Ferdinand's goals, but the new strike partnership of Kevin Gallen and Danny Dichio failed to provide anywhere near as many goals as QPR had managed while Ferdinand was up front. Even the support of excellent winger Trevor Sinclair could not translate into a strong supply of goals, and it was soon clear that player-manager Ray Wilkins and his men were in for a hard season.

A 3–0 win over London rivals West Ham United in late April was not enough to keep QPR up, and their relegation was confirmed after 13 years in the top flight.

Hopes of QPR gaining a quick return to the Premier League were given a major boost by the confirmation that Gallen, Dichio and Sinclair were to stay at the club.
