Ah well, the great upset never happened at Stamford Bridge. The Once and Soon-T0-Be-Again Mighty R’s fell to a freak own goal by keeper Lee Camp – Pizarro’s low shot hitting the post and going in off the diving keeper’s back. Still, we have the consolation that with the millions being poured into Loftus Road, we’ll be back in the Premier League before too long. As The Sunday Times commented this week:
“Roman Abramovich’s Chelsea squad was assembled for £227m. Andriy Shevchenko is their costliest signing at £30.8m, the same sum QPR owner Lakshmi Mittal paid for his daughter’s wedding.”
