QPR

Wolves are set to trigger Queens Park Rangers boss Michael Beale's release clause to make him their new manager, talkSPORT understands.Beale was only.

Beale is well regarded in the game with a reputation as a forward-thinking, progressive coach who has spent time at Chelsea, Liverpool and in Brazil with Sao Paulo. Beale has guided QPR up to sixth place in the Championship, winning seven of his 14 games in charge, and earning praise for his style of football. But it’s understood Beale is his preferred choice and the 42-year-old is keen on making the switch to Molineux, too.

Beale is still due to take control of QPR for Wednesday night’s visit of Cardiff. They are hopeful of having Beale, who was assistant to Steven Gerrard at Aston Villa before joining QPR in the summer, in place for Sunday’s visit of Leicester. Rangers are sixth in the Sky Bet Championship, a point adrift of the top two.

Lyndon Dykes' first-half double sets up a QPR victory as boss Michael Beale is linked with the vacant Wolves job.

And they would have to give me a really clear understanding of where that club is going." If an offer comes in officially, you don't have to take it. Dykes got the first two goals but Ilias Chair was the architect.

In-form striker Lyndon Dykes scored twice as QPR beat 10-man Cardiff and went top of the table amid speculation over the future of Mick Beale.

And Paal added a third after being picked out by Field, directing a looping header from near the edge of the six-yard box beyond Allsop and into the far corner of the net. But Dykes did get his second, on 33 minutes, and again Chair was the provider, running onto Ethan Laird’s pass and delivering from the right for Dykes to apply a close-range finish. Simpson was adjudged to have fouled Armstrong and was very harshly red-carded for apparently denying the teenage striker a clear goalscoring opportunity.

The Bluebirds travelled to Loftus Road for a midweek instalment of Championship action.

That game down at the Swansea.com Stadium has taken now taken on even more significance for Mark Hudson and Co. Instead it was left to Paal to add the third when he was found with a pinpoint cross to the back post before expertly heading back across goal, looping it over Allsop, and into the back of the net. Ryan Wintle in the book. It was the least Rangers deserved. Cardiff have a free-kick. That's two defeats in a row now with a very important derby clash against Swansea City next up. It was the Chair-Dykes link-up again, but this time down the opposite flank. Ilias Chair, the creator-in-chief, grew into the game and Cardiff could not live with him. Hardly the news City fans wanted to hear ahead of this Sunday's South Wales derby. The Scotland international would have expected to convert that. That's exactly what happened when Sinclair Armstrong was slotted through on goal, leaving Simpson almost trailing in his wake as he made a desperate last-ditch effort to quell the forward's powerful run. It was even more surprising, however, that he reached for the red card, but that will be a point of contention in the aftermath of the match.

Queens Park Rangers defeated 10-man Cardiff 3-0, Middlesbrough came back from a goal down to win 4-1 at Wigan, while Burnley were held 1-1 at Birmingham.

Isaiah Jones equalised just before the break and second-half strikes from Duncan Watmore, Hayden Hackney and a Chuba Akpom penalty left Middlesbrough in full control. Elswhere, Goals from Ryan Longman, Greg Docherty and Regan Slater saw Hull end a run of two straight losses with a 3-1 win at Blackpool, who had equalised through Kenny Dougall. The home side were positive throughout and got their reward three minutes from time when Martyn Waghorn converted a penalty to lift Mark Robins’ side off the foot of the table. Burnley also failed to grasp top spot as they were held to a 1-1 draw at Birmingham. “We had done a good job until then. “He’s ended up being the matchwinner and rightfully so,” the Coventry manager added.

ADAM SHERGOLD AT LOFTUS ROAD: If this does prove to be Michael Beale's final match as Queens Park Rangers manager, at least he leaves on a high note.

Another effort was dispatched wide after the visitors again failed to properly clear the danger. This was only his 16th match as a manager. Kenneth Paal sealed victory for the hosts with a looping header past the Cardiff goalkeeper Dykes was now very much in the mood and he stretched out a leg to direct Chair’s cross onto the crossbar as he searched for a second. - Kenneth Paal sealed the victory for QPR with a looping header in 74th minute QPR 3-0 Cardiff: Wolves target Michael Beale sees his side go top of the Championship with Lyndon Dykes scoring twice and Kenneth Paal on target after Jack Simpson was sent off
