Managers react after Stoke City beats QPR

  • Intro:

    Harry Redknapp laments the difficulty of signing players in January, as he reflects on QPR's 3-1 loss to Stoke City.

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Mark Hughes, Stoke manager (on the match)

    "Yes we're pleased with the result. Performance wise it wasn't a great game, I think you can all agree with that in terms of quality produced. It was difficult for both teams. Conditions didn't lend themselves to a technically proficient performance but I thought first half, we used the conditions well. We were good value at two nil and probably could have had more. But then we had a lapse and allowed them to get a goal back so at two one, knowing that you're going to face the conditions in the second half, it was a little bit all up for grabs for both teams. But thankfully we repelled everything that they put into the box (in the second half) and in the end it was fitting that Jonny Walters scored his third goal and took the game away from them."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Harry Redknapp, QPR manager (on the game and QPR's poor away form)

    "Today I felt, anyone watching that in the second half, lets be honest there were hanging on for grim life. If you ask Mark (Hughes) I'm sure he was looking at his watch, he couldn't wait for the whistle. That's how it was, wasn't it? I've been there a million times myself when you're hanging on for grim life leading two one or one nil, and that's how they were. They were just waiting, hoping that the whistle would go."
