Meanwhile, in football matters, Tommy Doherty will not play again this season after seriously injuring his ankle.



The 'Doc' picked up his injury whilst on loan at League 1 side Yeovil Town, nine minutes into his debut against Chesterfield.



Doherty suffered a syndesomosis sprain of his right ankle and after an X-ray and MRI scan, club physio Prav Mathema confirmed the news to the official website.



'Tommy is likely to miss the rest of the season. He's suffered a severe sprain and we'll continue to assess him.''



Vital QPR would like to send him our best wishes on his road to recovery.
