QPR's agonising wait to find out whether they will be playing in the Barclays Premier League next season is set to drag on into the weekend.
The Football Association have postponed their decision on the charges facing the npower Championship leaders regarding the Alejandro Faurlin affair.
The verdict, which was due at 4pm today, could now be delayed until after Rangers have played their final match of the season, against Leeds tomorrow.
They are due to be presented with the Championship trophy at Loftus Road after the game, but could still have the threat of a possible points deduction hanging over them.
An FA statement read: "It was originally indicated that the decision of the commission on the charges and on any sanction, if appropriate, would be announced by 4pm on Friday, May 6, if possible.
"This will not now happen. A decision will be made and announced as soon as possible thereafter."
Faurlin was at Wembley yesterday to give evidence on what was supposed to be the final day of the hearing held by a four-man independent regulatory commission.
