Rangers have been able to avoid relegation thanks to Steve Cook’s defensive efforts and his recent goal-scoring success.
Everywhere Steve Cook plays, it seems like the fans adore the giant center defender, and his most recent outings have demonstrated why Queens Park Rangers supporters are the latest to take a shine to the 32-year-old.

The defender scored vital goals in both of the Easter doubleheader games. Three days later, he scored a thunderous volley to win all three points against Swansea City after setting up the equalizer in Rangers’ 2-1 triumph against Birmingham City on Good Friday.

With just six games left in the Championship season, those two wins have helped the Hoops climb six points above the dreaded drop zone—something that was unthinkable just a few months ago.

Cook has been a key player in the recent upswing in events. His depth of experience has helped lead his team to within striking distance of safety, and his goal-scoring prowess at one end is matched by his win-at-all-costs mentality when protecting his own goal.

To realize what a mess Rangers have gotten themselves into this season, you just have to go back to mid-January. After 27 games, the team is five points from safety and has only five wins to its name.

After eight games, the Hoops had treble their amount of wins. They also managed to rise out of the relegation positions for the first time in 2024, though not before a number of teams near them at the bottom of the table thanks to their 17 points out of a potential 24.
