QPR OFFICIAL SITE - DE CANIO'S COMMENTS ENJOY IT
Luigi De Canio was in joyous mood after seeing his side stretch their unbeaten run to four matches in the Championship with a vital victory against Colchester United.

Speaking exclusively to www.qpr.co.uk, De Canio said: "We have to enjoy tonight - it's three vitally important points.

"We played fantastic football up until their goal, but then we sat back and gave them too much space.

"Credit to the players though, they fought for everything late on and it's nice to continue our unbeaten run and, of course, be off the bottom of the table."

De Canio reserved special praise for two-goal hero Akos Buzsaky, commenting: "He is very important to us.

"He scored two fantastic goals against Scunthorpe and again today, but there is still more to come from him and his team-mates." QPR

SPORTING LIFE - MANAGERIAL COMMENTS R'S BOSS COUNTS POINTS, NOT CASH

QPR manager Luigi De Canio insists the pressure of managing the club suddenly dubbed 'the richest in the world' sits comfortably on his shoulders after a 2-1 win over Colchester lifted them off the foot of the Coca-Cola Championship.

Rangers are expected to embark on a January transfer spree the like of which the Championship has never seen following billionaire Indian steel magnate Lakshmi Mittal's investment in the club alongside Formula One moguls Bernie Ecclestone and Flavio Briatore.

Akos Buzsaky struck twice as Rangers sunk Colchester, who now replace them at the foot of the table, despite Mark Yeates' consolation and Damion Stewart's late dismissal.

And rather than working on an expensive new year wish-list, De Canio is happy concentrating on guiding Rangers further away from trouble.

"The money is not mine," he quipped. "I am just happy this club is becoming an important, solid club, and I'm pleased for the fans who can see a bright future.

"We will work hard to get things right, and we will utilise our finances in the best possible way.

"No club has unlimited funds, everyone has a budget. But when the time is right we will discuss the budget and what to do with it.

"I have no problem with the pressure. When you affiliate yourself to a club you take on a project. I am very happy to be in this country, at this club and with this group of players.

"My job is to see the immediate issue and objective, and that is that QPR are off the bottom."

On-loan midfield star Buzsaky will become De Canio's first big-money signing when he joins for £500,000 from Plymouth in January, and he is already paying the fee back with five goals in 10 games.

Both strikes against Colchester oozed class, turning on the edge of the area and firing a left-footed curler past Dean Gerken after 27 minutes, and doubling Rangers' lead after the break with a cool finish following a one-two with Dexter Blackstock.

Yeates pulled one back when he latched onto Teddy Sheringham's flick-on and dinked the ball over Lee Camp, and Rangers survived a late onslaught after Stewart's dismissal for two bookings inside nine minutes.

"It ended up being quite a difficult encounter," added De Canio. "I'm pleased, though. We've been working hard and it's paying off.

"I do believe the team has it in them to play the entire 90 minutes the way they played in the first half."

Colchester manager Geraint Williams was left to rue a late penalty decision which went against his team after Kevin Lisbie appeared to be felled in the penalty area, only to be booked for diving.

"It looked like a penalty to me but that's referees' decisions, you have them every week," he said.

"But I've never yet seen a striker look to dive when he's got round the back and is clean through on goal, but the referee obviously thought he did.

"We made a terrible start. In the first half we didn't look anything like ourselves. We looked a better side in the second half but we'd already given ourselves too much to do." Sporting Life

Akos Buzsaky enhanced his ever-growing reputation with two sublime individual goals, as ten-man Rangers sealed a crucial home victory against fellow strugglers Colchester United.

The Hungarian international capped a cameo individual display with a goal in each half, to lift the R's off the foot of the Championship table.

Mark Yeates ensured a nervy finale when he pulled a goal back in the 62nd minute, but - despite Damion Stewart seeing red for two bookable offences late on - Rangers held on for three priceless points.

In the R's final home fixture of 2007, Rowan Vine and Adam Bolder returned to the starting XI after one match bans, but there was no place in the 16 for Martin Rowlands, who was ruled out due to illness.

Colchester included veteran front-man Teddy Sheringham in attack, meaning former R's loanee Kevin Lisbie had to settle for a place amongst the substitutes.

Rangers were in the ascendancy from the first whistle.

Mikele Leigertwood and Akos Buzsaky combined to set up Vine, but Dean Gerken stood up well, saving with a strong right hand as the Birmingham loanee thrashed a fearsome second minute drive on target.

At the other end, Lee Camp was down well to save at his near post, after Johnnie Jackson let fly with a speculative 25-yard free-kick.

But it was the R's who were the better side, as Vine's cross shot flew inches wide and Blackstock headed a yard wide of Gerken's left hand post.

The goal the performance arguably deserved arrived in the 27th minute, courtesy of yet another Buzsaky wonder-goal.

Bob Malcolm's throw-in from the right flank found the Magical Magyar, who turned on a sixpence, got a yard on his marker and then unleashed an arrowing left footed drive in the roof of the net.

It was a goal fit to grace any stadium in the world, let alone the country - and immediately had the R's faithful breaking into a vocal rendition of the latest chant to grace the Loftus Road terraces, '1-0 to the Billionaires!'

The second half started in a similar fashion to the first period, with Buzsaky sending in an inviting 47th minute free-kick, which three advancing Rangers players just failed to connect with.

Undeterred, the R's were two goals to the good moments later, thanks to a fantastically worked team goal.

Chris Barker blocked Sheringham's attempted cross on the edge of the Rangers box and the ball fell at the feet of Vine, who - assisted by the over-lapping Barker - raced 40-yards towards goal.

He in turn fed a neat pass into Blackstock, who showed fantastic awareness to lay a first time ball to Buzsaky, who drew Gerken towards him before calmly slotting the ball beyond the goalkeeper's despairing dive.

Camp very nearly gifted Colchester an unlikely reprieve in the 54th minute, as he fumbled Kevin McLeod's cross into the path of Sheringham.

The evergreen striker seemed destined to bring the U's back in the game, only to fire against the foot of the post from little more than two yards.

Camp atoned for his earlier faux pas a minute later though, diving full stretch to his left to tip Luke Guttridge's 12-yard drive to safety.

But there was nothing the R's number one could do to prevent Yeates from halving the deficit in the 61st minute.

Zesh Rehman's ill-fated slip allowed the diminutive midfielder to race clean through on goal and he made no mistake, clipping a neat finish over the advancing Rangers stopper from ten yards.

Sheringham was perhaps a tad fortunate to receive just a prolonged ticking off from referee Mr Whitestone when he kicked out at Malcolm 20 minutes from time, while Stewart could count himself very unlucky when he was booked a minute later for a far lesser crime.

And it got worse for the big Jamaican defender in the 82nd minute, as he was shown a second yellow card and a resultant red, for a heavy challenge on Yeates.

But despite a flurry of late set-pieces from the visitors, Rangers - led heroically by substitute Simon Walton - defended with their lives to grind out a valuable victory.

COLCHESTER OFFICIAL SITE
A second half fight back was not quite enough for the U's as they fell to a 2-1 defeat at Loftus Road.
An Akos Buzsaky double had given the home team what looked like a comfortable lead, but the U's rallied in some style to pin the home team back for the final half an hour of the game.

The U's created chance after chance and got one back through a Mark Yeates dink over Lee Camp, but could not find a second despite constant pressure as the R's collected a massive three points in the quest to move clear of the relegation zone.

And with Preston grabbing a late winner in their game, Colchester ended the match at the bottom of the Championship table.

The U's made just one change to the starting eleven for the game against the R's, with the unavailable Matt Connolly making way for Bela Balogh.

Both Karl Duguid and Kevin Lisbie were deemed fit for duty, but both had to make do with a place on the bench as Geraint Williams stuck with the Clive Platt and Teddy Sheringham forward line.

The first task for the U's would be to quell the home crowd, who were truly in the festive spirit after the news of the additional investment in the club earlier in the week.

They nearly found themselves one up early on as Vine was slid in on goal and his fierce shot was turned away from danger by a fine save from Gerken.

The home team started well on top as they forced a series of corners that needed strong defending from the U's to see it away from danger.

However, the visitors were the next to go close after Yeates won a free kick on the right. Jackson stepped up and curled in a low shot that needed a good save by Camp to turn it around the post for a corner.

It was a good response by the U's to the home team's flying chance and another piece of intricate play almost saw Platt get in, but a good interception by Rehman proved crucial.

Vine was the man causing the U's problems and his intricate play down the wing was giving Balogh troubles, with the Hungarian going into the book on ten minutes for hauling down the R's man.

The former Colchester loanee was then able to break down the left on 12 minutes, as the home team got away as the U's lost the ball, and his cross-cum-shot fizzed across the face of goal, just beyond the reach of Blackstock and Buzsaky.

The U's then had a chance of their own on 15 minutes, albeit from distance. Platt and Sheringham combined to set up the onrushing Izzet, but his shot - whilst well hit - was comfortable for Camp to collect.

The home team had clearly targeted Malcolm as a way to get in behind the R's defence, with a number of angled balls in behind the fall back to turn the Loftus Road side outfit around.

It was a ball that was crossed from in front of the right back that next caused problems though, as McLeod sent over a low centre. Sheringham stepped over it expecting Platt to be further advanced, but the ball went between the two of them and away from danger.

The home side did manage to take the lead with 25 minutes gone. It was a piece of magic from Buzsaky as he spun on the edge of the box and curled a superb shot beyond the despairing dive of Gerken into the upper reaches of the far corner.

The R's were lifted by that goal, and it went from bad to worse for the U's as they lost Izzet to injury with 34 minutes gone, as he collided in mid-air with Ainsworth and fell heavily to the floor.

After a prolonged period, he was eventually taken away by Tony Flynn, where it appeared he may have sustained some serious damage to his wrist or hand.

He was replaced by Luke Guttridge, who had had to wait patiently for his chance this season but would now have around an hour to show what he had to offer.

The break in play had broken the rhythm of the game up a little bit, but the U's were next to go close as some good play from Sheringham put the ball into McLeod's path and, rather than trying to take on Malcolm, he drove in a shot that fizzed over the crossbar.

Virgo got caught by Vine just before the break and, living up to his reputation as the villain of the U's piece, got a talking to from the referee but no yellow card.

The half finished with the visitors one adrift, but where Vine had escaped the booking at the end of the first half, Baldwin had his name taken by the referee after a foul on the R's player.

The two teams traded free kicks at the start of the first half, but the U's spurned a good position when they were presented with a set piece by the byline.

The U's then had their best chance so far five minutes after the restart, as a ball from the left was missed by Rehman and it caught Guttridge by surprise.

As it popped off his shin, it came to Sheringham and his shot on the turn went well past the upright.

That miss proved crucial as the home team doubled their advantage. Some good play saw the ball threaded past to Buzsaky and he put the ball past the onrushing Gerken into the back of the net.

In fairness to the U's, they responded strongly and could have been level had they converted the chances that followed not long afterwards.

First Sheringham flicked a header from a corner just wide, then inexplicably missed from two yards out as Camp dropped a floated cross. It fell to the U's striker and instinctively he poked out a foot which put the ball onto the post from close range.

Sheringham then turned provider on 58 minutes, as he lay the ball back to Guttridge who, with a quick twist and turn with the ball at his feet, forced a superb save out of Camp.

The U's pressure eventually told though as they pulled one back just after the hour mark. Yeates escaped the attentions of the Rangers back line and lifted the ball over Camp to make it 2-1.

The visitors were right on the front foot now and a jubilant Loftus Road was temporarily quietened as they saw their side's nerves return as the U's pushed them back.

The home team were now sitting very deep and the U's made a second change with twenty minutes to go to try and impose themselves further on the match.

The U's again had an effort on target on 73 minutes as a ball was only half cleared by the R's defence and Granville drove in a shot which perhaps was always going over, but was never too far away.

They continued to press, forcing three quick corners to increase the nerves at Loftus Road, with the R's defence right on top of their keeper as the visitors looked for a path to goal.

Yeates had a shout for a penalty but the referee waved it away and then the U's winger was right in the thick of the action not long afterwards as he and Stewart went in competitively for a ball in the midfield.

Stewart had been adjudged by the referee to have gone in over the ball and was given a second yellow and red as the U's faced ten men for the final minutes.

Another ball was thumped into the box and Lisbie had a shot blocked on the turn and, as Rangers sat in, he headed wide when well placed.

The dying stages of the game were to be attack v defence as the U's pushed forward. Rangers sat two banks of four in front of their keeper as soon as they lost the ball.

The U's introduced Jamie Guy for the final stages of the match, but it was his fellow substitute Lisbie who was in the thick of the action next.

He was sent towards goal by a flick on from Platt, but when he went down in the box, the referee decided that he had dived when the decision could easily have gone the other way.

The U's pressure was relentless and Lisbie headed in an effort well saved by Camp, before Granville had a shot deflected wide for a corner and Jackson also had an effort cleared from danger.

As much as the home side had rocked and creaked as the U's tried to find a way back into the game, they held on for a massive three points. Colchester
