28.09.2010 Pressemeldung QPR vs Millwall


In Cottbus bewirft man Züge und in London die Heimfans mit Dartpfeilen....Verrückte Welt.


Queens Park Rangers remain six points clear at the top of the Championship but lost their 100% home record as Millwall produced a disciplined defensive display that, alas, was at odds with the behaviour of some of the spectators. The police mounted an enormous security operation around Loftus Road in an effort to prevent violence at the first meeting of these rivals for five years but fighting nonetheless erupted before and after kick-off.

Police made at least 11 arrests during an evening in which supporters fought in two pubs close to the stadium and scuffles and missile-throwing broke out in the stands following the final whistle. The arrests included three for assault and two for possessing offensive weapons. A steward said he pulled a dart out of a QPR fan's chest. The Football Association is likely to investigate the trouble inside the stadium.

Warnock suggested the decision to stage such a volatile match at 8pm rather than arrange an early-morning weekend kick-off may have played into troublemakers' hands. "It doesn't make any sense, but you never get sense out of the people who compile the fixtures," he said.

On the pitch, Warnock's side showed their determination to extend their best start to a campaign since 1947 by beginning strongly and could have opened the scoring in the second minute. Kyle Walker created the chance with a crisp cross from the right but Heidar Helguson, arriving unmarked at the edge of the six-yard box, headed wide.

A swirling long-range shot from Akos Buzsaky forced Millwall's goalkeeper, Darren Forde, to save with his legs. Chances became more scarce after that, however, as the game degenerated into a midfield battle in which neither side gained much ground.

Adel Taarabt is the man to whom QPR have typically turned for inspiration this season but the Moroccan was mostly subdued by the excellent Tamika Mkandawire. On the few occasions Taarabt did manage to wriggle free of his marker QPR looked like breaking the deadlock, most notably on the hour when he swivelled and shot from the edge of the area and brought another good save from Forde.

Steve Morison came close to stealing the points for Millwall following a rare break in the 72nd minute but Paddy Kenny saved his close-range header. "Kenny [Jackett, the Millwall manager] gets the maximum out of his team and he had to tonight to stop us," Warnock said.
