During the 1956–57 English football season, Queens Park Rangers competed in the Football League Third Division South and finished in tenth place.{{cite book|last1=Macey |first1=Gordon |title=Queens Park Rangers: A Complete Record |date=1993 |publisher=Breedon Books Publishing Co Ltd|isbn=978-1873626405 |location=london}}

At seasons end future England forward Mike Hellawell was transferred to top division Birmingham City in 1957 in part-exchange for inside-forward Bill Finney and £6,000. When questioned by disappointed supporters, manager Jack Taylor explained that Hellawell had signed for Rangers on condition that "they would not stand in his way if a First Division Club came after him."
