QPR chairman Fernandes cools Caulker bust-up claims

QPR chairman Tony Fernandes has played down the cause of Steven Caulker's head injury.

Caulker was taken to hospital with a cut head after QPR and Crystal Palace players met up at a London pub.

Fernandes took to Twitter to play down the reports.

He wrote: "I'm aware of some headlines appearing in tomorrow [Tuesday's] newspaper. After a great win boys were given permission for a Sunday lunch.

"Team is very united and really playing for each other. Steven Caulker slipped over and hurt his head and is fine. Nothing else to report.

"Great team spirit. We are one. Best I've seen since being chairman. A few sensational headlines but team has done us proud."
