Reading and Queens Park Rangers' relegation from the Premier League was confirmed following a drab 0-0 draw at the Madejski Stadium.

QPR boss Harry Redknapp was left to reflect on some poor finishing, with Taarabt in particular having several opportunities to score. Redknapp said: "I thought we got into some good positions, but our finishing was poor today. "We had good opportunities to hit the target, but we didn't do it. There were some positives to take from the game." Meanwhile, when asked if there were things he would have done differently since taking charge, Reading boss Nigel Adkins replied: "When you look at it, there's been a good progression. "We want to play winning football. Today both teams came out with different ways to win a game of football, but unfortunately it's ended up with a 0-0 scoreline which didn't help anybody. "We've got a nice bunch of lads who work hard. It's a great football club and we have to rebuild and get ready for next season.
