@cferns, you sure its not Rooney who should be worried about Pepe applying his gentle touches on his helpless frame? After-all he did call him to be an "idiot" on Twitter back in 2011, part of the reason I found it so amusing he was subbed off 1 minute after Pepe was subbed on in the first round.

You're right, redbornandbred. Football definitely needs more lawyers involved. That's what would make it truly perfect. It's bad luck, but I imagine the Fa signs off on all the ground facilities including cameras etc, so QPR are covered. After all, no one batted an eye when every team brought the ad boards right next to the sideline whenever Stoke visited with Delap.

Robin VP had an accident that was waiting to happen. He fell into a hole dug on the authority of the QPR board. If he is out for a significant period, his club will presumably seek compensation from its insurer. In this case which I trust all lovers of sport would hate to see happen (unliike one or two bitters who have posted on the Guardian website today), surely the insurer has a case against QPR and whichever media organisation was complicit in the accident. After all if that was any other workplace, wouldn't 'injury lawyers for you' be calling both the player and the club. Why haven't the media picked up on this?

m starting to think Roman may never actually be happy at the top level. If he wants all conquering fancy football I wonder if he'd be better off buying a lower division side then paying outlandish salaries to attract high caliber players too good for the division.
