Crystal Palace manager Neil Warnock blasted the state of the QPR pitch on Saturday after the two teams played out a goalless draw.

Despite both sides trying to play football the ground did not allow for slick passing and the ball spent the majority of its time in the air in a game devoid of quality.

"It was as good a game as you could get on that pitch," said Warnock.

"I'm not bothered how many millions you want to spend on players, if you have got a pitch like that you are not going to get football.

"I think the first job for them is to get a good pitch."

Rangers had the better chances with Liam Miller and Adel Taarabt denied by Julian Speroni, while Taarabt should have done better than fire over when clean through in the second half.

Victor Moses forced Radek Cerny into a decent save early in the second half but the Eagles created little else and Warnock admitted his side were not good enough in the final third.

"I thought we competed well and worked our socks off in the first half but I didn't think we were good enough," he said.

"In the last third the passing and the decision was wrong.

"Second half we were a lot better and if we were a little bit more clinical we might have finished it off there but the draw was a fair result really.

"I thought we were strong at the back and Shaun Derry is playing well at the minute even though he is going to have his operation shortly.

"Victor Moses worked his socks off too which is probably not his forté but he looked a threat and he worked for the team like I have never seen him."
