    Internet saying that Chelsea nine man shut out is the longest in the history of the football league.
    50 odd mins without conceding.
    Is this true?

    Did we have a shot on target with a two man advantage? Not complaining, just asking.

    Even worse that you couldn't manage a shot on target with 2 extra men

    The players should be proud. But we shouldn't take anything away from QPR, they did what they had to do well. Both sides showed great determination and spirit.

    I am just as angry with Foy as any Chelsea fan, but bottom line is we didn't really penetrate them even with 11 men. Ramires and Mata were badly missed today.

    Unlike our North London comerades lets show some grace in defeat and move on.

    I still believe we are better than United.

    In the record books it will say QPR 1 Chelsea 0, just as it will say Man U 1 Man C 6. The dramatics, ifs, ands and buts count not a jot...

    I think rangers may struggle to stay up; but I hope they do.

    You're only here for a season songs may be poignant

    Chelsea played brilliantly with nine men. Bosingwa sending off was more than harsh.

    I do think we were lucky to a degree and also you guys can feel proud of the 9.

    We were doing very well with even numbers though - Warnock surprised a few with the game plan and the Chelsea team looked frustrated before the sending offs.
