QPR finished 20th in the league, were eliminated in the fourth round of the Football League War Cup, and third in the London War Cup. Season summary QPR were included in the rather expansive League South that had no less than 34 teams all playing varying numbers of games. There was no structure and, at best, these games were all ostensibly friendlies. There were two Cup competitions, the London War Cup and the League War Cup. The London War Cup consisted of six teams with QPR finishing 3rd and the League War Cup was basically just a home and away set against four other opponents. There is no table for the League War Cup though QPR finished the eight matches with six wins and two losses.
