Nedum Onuoha: 'Playoff final defeat would not be a disaster'

Nedum Onuoha has claimed that losing in the playoff final would not be a disaster for Queens Park Rangers.

QPR take on Derby County at Wembley on Saturday knowing that they are just one win away from a return to the Premier League, but Onuoha insists that they would recover if it proved to be a disappointing afternoon in the capital.

"I think it would be disappointing, but I don't think it would be a disaster," the 27-year-old told members of the media.

"Everyone knew what the goal was at the beginning of the season, and now it's come down to one game.

"The players will survive; the club will survive, and If the worst came to the worst we'll go again next year."

QPR have been given a boost ahead of the game with the news that Benoit Assou-Ekotto will be available after injury.
