As the hangovers fade, as the perma-grins slip away from their faces, as the astonished joy gives way to depressing, cold logic, QPR fans must be very quietly panicking. Abject fear at what might be to come. Icy terror at what next season in the Premier League might hold. For spending an entire campaign watching your team get a thorough shoeing is, as they will know from depressing first-hand experience, no kind of fun.
Harry Redknapp says he has learned from last time, when the tactic of throwing a lot of money at old, experienced and high-profile players backfired in quite a profound way, so attention now turns to the gossip pages for his new, innovative and exciting plan. Let’s see what we’ve got here today...
Oh.
Erm, says here they’re going to sign Frank Lampard, Rio Ferdinand and Joe Cole.
Oh.
But hey, who hasn’t been manager of a club in eye-bleeding amounts of debt and tested the standard definition of insanity by doing the same thing over and over and expecting something utterly different, by giving your nephew £10m to help him ease his career down?
