Aidy's View: Queens Park Rangers (a)

Last updated : 23 May 2006 By Gary Calder

Although happy with a victory which guarantees home advantage in the second leg of the play-off semi-final, manager Aidy Boothroyd was not entirely happy with his side's performance at Loftus Road especially as opponents, Queens Park Rangers played the entire second half with only ten men following the sending off of Marc Nygaard,

“Football's about condensing space and finding space and we forgot that today.

We didn't get it wide enough. We didn't find the spare man, and we let ourselves down a bit today."

Turning his thoughts to the play-offs Boothroyd added,

“I would imagine anyone would want to be at home in the second leg of a play-off semi-final.

But we've been equally good at home and away in the league this season, so perhaps it'll make little difference."
