Rivalry is what makes football so exciting at times and for Queens Park Rangers the team the fans always love to beat is Chelsea.
Whilst the two sides haven’t met that often recently, everyone will remember the London derby back in 2011, with the R’s winning 1-0 thanks to a Heidar Helguson penalty in what was a ill-tempered game that saw two Chelsea players sent off.
That wasn’t the main talking point afterwards though, as Blues skipper John Terry was eventually found guilty by the FA of using racially abusive language towards Anton Ferdinand, which saw him suspended for four games and fined £220,000. Therefore, when R’s fans were asked on Twitter for the one rival player that they hate, many came forward with Terry for those obvious reasons.

However, he wasn’t the only name mentioned and here we look at some of the comments as the supporters reflect on other players who they also didn’t like over the years…
