QPR obliterate high-flying opposition as Burnley bosses take decisive action: Championship Review

In the second tier, the result of the weekend came at Loftus Road as Queens Park Rangers annihilated second-placed Swansea City by five goals to nil. It was Richard Kone who did the damage, scoring his first goals of the season with a 15-minute hat-trick. The Ivorian started the previous three games from the bench but was handed the shirt on Saturday and he did not disappoint. Jimmy Dunne made it four on the stroke of half time, rising above the crowd to head home from a corner and it was the centre-back who notched the fifth, capping off a brilliant team performance by the R’s. They’ll be feeling confident about their potential play-off prospects.
