Waddock

Rangers may have been denied a win, but Gary Waddock is happy with the start his side have made.

Waddock stressed the importance of peaking too soon during the pre-season warm up games and reiterated the fact that the only game he is concerned about right now is the trip to Burnley.

Speaking after the 1-1 draw at Aldershot, the Rangers manager said: "I'm pleased with what I've seen today, we don't want to peak now, it's all about building our fitness up as we approach our first League game of the new season.

"We have a slow and steady approach so that we peak at that point, not too soon before.

"We've seen a few things that we can go back and work on next week and we'll look forward to cracking on in our next game.

"Most of the players got 45 minutes and that was our aim.

"I was pleased with Armel at the back and there was one particular trialist that I was very pleased with - I'm sure the fans who were here today will know who I'm talking about.

"I want to thank the fans who turned out today as well. They were great as always."

Waddock watched the game from the stands, seated just behind new signing Nick Ward.

"It was great to have him sat there as a QPR player. There had been a lot of talk and speculation leading up to the game and it was great to have it all done and dusted at last."
