QPR chief Beard says new stadium plans on track

QPR chief Philip Beard has given an update on their new stadium plans.

Beard said QPR were looking to build a new stadium and though attracted by the idea of ground-sharing ruled out doing so with their nearest club Chelsea.

Rugby union side Wasps used to play at Loftus Road and asked if a rugby club could share a new stadium he said: "It could be other sports. There's no reason why a football stadium can't host a boxing match, potentially rugby, tennis tournaments, anything.

"I do think there's a platform where discussions would take place on success and viability s of ground-sharing but at the moment that's very emotional for football fans.

"I can't envisage QPR sharing a ground with Chelsea football club."
