QPR 2

A comfortable win for QPR in a real six pointer at Crewe. Due to real audio problems the only report I have seen was on team talks page and as I don't know anyone who went, I am writing this report based on what I have read so sorry if it is not that accurate.

Crewe opened the brighter, with a Shaun Smith free-kick from all of 35 yards out whistling past Miklosko's right hand post. However, Rangers were soon back in the groove which had brought them two successive wins prior to this game.

Front men Kevin Gallen and Mike Sheron looked in good form, with Gallen going close to breaking the deadlock in the early exchanges. The striker had an effort cleared off the line after rounding Alex keeper Kearton, and moments later directed a free-header just wide of the upright.

The deadlock was broken just after the half-hour, Gavin Peacock capitalising after Richard Langley's through ball had caught out full-back Marcus Bignott. Peacock shrugged off Bignott's challenge and fired home with relative ease.

On 62 minutes, Mike Sheron grabbed Rangers' second to put the game beyond Dario Gradi's men. Gallen fired the ball into the area and with Sheron seemingly beaten by the flight of the ball, he launched himself into an over-head kick to fire past Kearton in what sounds like a quality goal. (Sheron must stay?)

The win takes us out of the bottom three but nowhere near safety or the playoffs yet.
