1984/1985 
Alan Mullery Replaces Terry Venables (after Gordon Jago was appointed/axed after a week; and QPR failed to get David Pleat)
Gary Bannister Replaces Clive Allen
The amazing 5-5 comeback against Newcastle
The disgusting 0-4 European collapse against Partisan Belgrade (after 6-2) at "home" (except because of our "controversial plastic pitch, wasn't at home!)
The arriver of John Byrne and later Mike Robinson
The departure of Alan Mullery...The almost appointment of Don Revie....
Just staying up (by one point)

From a Potted History of QPR:
"...In 1983/84 QPR completed building their fourth and last stand and thus had seating on all four sides of the ground.
- QPR finished fifth in their first season back in Division One and in 1984/85 Terry Venables left to join Barcelona. Alan Mullery had a brief spell in charge with Frank Sibley becoming caretaker manager for the remainder of the season.
- QPR again qualified for the UEFA Cup and went through to the Second Round where they lost on aggregate to Partizan Belgrade. All seemed well after a 6-2 first leg victory. Yet Rangers conspired to lose the second legt 4-0 and go out on the away goals rule.
- In July 1985 Jim Smith became QPR's new manager..."
