Nico Yennaris starred for Brentford on saturday v QPR.Nick’s father used to play for AEL in our league. QPR have a connection too the QPR boys director of football Les Ferdinand, coach Paul Furlong and Youth academy director Gary Karsa who played KOPA teams Achna, Eleftheria and PAOK. Also there are two young Cypriots in their youth teams Andreas Komodikis and Michael Anastasiou.
Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink recorded his first back-to-back wins as QPR boss with a comfortable win over Brentford.
Junior Hoilett opened the scoring by unleashing an unstoppable effort from the edge of the box.
QPR’s lead was doubled when Tjaronn Chery’s perfectly-weighted ball found Sebastian Polter, who slotted underneath David Button.
Chery secured the three points shortly after with a composed finish, his fourth goal in four Loftus Road games.
The Rs remain in 11th despite their west London derby win, while the Bees stay 17th.
Brentford’s best chance came straight after Hoilett’s opener, but Ryan Woods’ fierce strike from long range struck the base of the post.
Former centre-back Dean Smith will be concerned with his Brentford side’s defence, which has now conceded 12 in the last four away games.
The result sees QPR win three home games in a row for the first time since 2014.
