During the 1997–98 English football season, Queens Park Rangers F.C. competed in the Football League First Division.

Season summary

In the 1997–98 season, QPR did start the campaign brightly but in November, Houston was sacked as manager with the club in 13th place and only four points adrift from the playoff places. Ray Harford was appointed as Houston's replacement and QPR went on to struggle with only three wins through to the end of the season and only managed to avoid relegation by one point at the expense of Manchester City, Stoke City and Reading.

Kit

Le Coq Sportif became QPR's new kit manufacturers. Telecommunications giant Ericsson continued as kit sponsors.
