The hardest start possible for any
team was a trip to Sunderland and it proved difficult for Rangers.
I heard the match on Talk Radio whilst
in a caravan in Weymouth. A holiday away with family seemed a good
idea after the fixtures came out.
From the commentary it sounded like
Rangers battled well and had a few chances, Gallen missing Rangers
best efforts, something I fear will be said more than once this
season.
Sunderland were reduced to long range
efforts until Ian Baraclough handled on the line after Harper had
looked to have been fouled.
A penalty was given and Baraclough
was shown the red card. Phillips made no mistake from the spot,
1-0. Gallen had another chance for Rangers but it was well saved.
QPR deserved a point according to Lou Macari but at least we didn't
get stuffed which was mainly due to Lee Harper
Man of the Match: Lee Harper
