SHEFFIELD UNITED OFFICIAL SITE
"..."There has been a lot happening at Loftus Road, new investment, new players and an improvement in results. QPR have been climbing the league and have a potentially bright future to inspire them at the moment."
Just to add a nice touch to the clash, Robson is looking forward to meeting up with someone who helped him make a big impression in the top flight years ago:
"It will be nice to cross paths again with current QPR Chairman Gianni Paladini. When I was at Middlesbrough he had a bit of influence in me bringing Juninho to this country.
"At that time Gianni was involved with players and not at QPR, but we have spoken on a few occasions since then." Sheffield United
