Queens Park Rangers cannot hope to stay in the Premier League when their defending is as cringe-worthy as this. Harry Redknapp wear
nike football boots team showed their spirit and, in a wacky game of contrasting halves, they missed a penalty and nearly completed an outlandish comeback against a Fulham side that finished with 10 men after the harsh dismissal of Steve Sidwell. But the blood and thunder could not mask the fundamental truth. Rangers really needed to win, yet they defended like schoolboys to leave themselves with too much to do. Redknapp lamented a "disastrous" first half, which was scarred by "the worst goals I've ever seen in my life" and in the roll-call of shame, one man stood head and shoulders above the rest wear

At 6ft 5in Christopher Samba has the capacity to do so but his performance was a personal nightmare that made a mockery of his ??12.5m January transfer fee and the notion that he could be the club's survival talisman. Redknapp even suggested that Samba had taken it upon himself to go up front after Sidwell's 78th-minute red card for a lunge at Armand Traore, even though he wanted intelligent probing to expose the 10 men rather than high balls to the big lad. It must be said that Redknapp tied himself in knots on this point and was not entirely clear as the frustration of yet more squandered points bit hard

He has 19 points from his 18 matches at Rangers but the club remain seven adrift of safety and have only seven matches to play. No team in Premier League history has escaped from such a position. "We murdered them in the second half," Redknapp said, and there was a barnstorming quality about the Rangers revival, which had been ignited at the end of the first half when Giorgos Karagounis wear

Taarabt tricked Karagounis into nibbling at his ankles after the interval only for Lo?c R??my to telegraph his intentions from the spot and Schwarzer to read them and save. Yet R??my hit back with a brilliant finish from St??phane Mbia's pass and the visitors created a clutch of presentable chances, with R??my blowing the best of them after he had beaten Brede Hangeland

The first aberration had him losing his bearings and hacking down Ashkan Dejagah for a penalty that Berbatov tucked away without missing a heartbeat. The second, though, was the most grisly. Samba dwelt on the ball as the last man when under pressure from Damien Duff and prodded the ball at Berbatov who eased into space to beat Julio Cesar wear

"He is a clever guy, Berbatov," Redknapp said, sarcastically. Fulham could have been further in front by then. Duff drew an early save from Julio C??sar while Hangeland fluffed a free header. Berbatov dazzled in front of the TV cameras, drawing the breath when he beat Traore with one touch from a high ball on the byline and Fulham's comfort in possession was indictment enough of Rangers' defending wear

Samba tweeted a grovelling apology to Rangers' fans afterwards. "I can't say sorry enough," he said, and there was the accompanying promise to fight on. But as Fulham embraced the near certainty of safety wear
