QPR coach Luigi De Canio:
"We have beaten the top teams this season.

"This shows we need to acquire the mentality when playing teams at the bottom of the table that we show against teams at the top.

"Consistency is important, because our position in the table is defined by our performances week in, week out."

Stoke manager Tony Pulis on Griffin's dismissal:
"I don't think it's a sending off.

"I think Andy has played the ball. He has not put their player in any danger whatsoever. He slid in to get the ball and played it cleanly.

"I hope the referee is big enough to look at it and say he's made a mistake. That is all we are asking for."
