克里奇利说：“我感到非常兴奋，迫不及待地想开始。”在QPR在周日以3-0击败伯恩利之后被任命为伯恩利，这使他们在天空BET冠军赛中排名第九。
“我已经知道一些以前与他们合作的球员，我知道其中的许多球员从远处遵循了他们的职业。在这里奠定了一些不错的基础，现在我尽力而为是我的工作。我们希望将俱乐部前进，并确保我们在冠军桌的顶端竞争。”
早些时候，伯恩利经理文森特·科姆帕尼（Vincent Kompany）将QPR的3-0胜利描述为“新开局”，因为他的球队通过在冠军头顶重新取得三分领先优势来恢复了赛季。
在世界杯休息后重返行动后，克莱尔斯在谢菲尔德联队在周六与他们的积分上提高水平后做出了强烈的反应。约翰·伯格·古德蒙森（Johann Berg Gudmundsson），伊恩·马森（Ian Maatsen）和内森·泰拉（Nathan Tella）的进球使游客在洛夫图斯路（Loftus Road）取得了巨大的胜利。
康帕尼说：“这绝不是完美的，但这很接近它。” “我首先要努力判断一支团队，我认为每个人都可以目睹这支球队的能量。我们在那场比赛中看到了很多好东西，并打进了三个非常好的进球。

“对我来说，这感觉就像是一个新的起点。 [这是一个起点，联盟在我们的脑海中保持水平，我们必须变得更好。我确实想以这种方式对待它 - 就像重新启动一样。我们可以变得更好，这必须是信息。”
伯恩利（Burnley）到目前为止是更好的一面，但科姆帕尼（Kompany）承认，当乔治·托马斯（George Thomas）受到守门员阿里贾尼特·穆里奇（Arijanet Muric）的挑战时，他们可能很幸运地不承认开场白。

科姆帕尼说：“老实说，我不知道。从我的位置来看，我可以看到如何在这样的情况下进行惩罚。它消失了。我们有一场比赛，球踢出进球，给了一个角球，我们承认了。这些事情可能会发生，他们最终会互相提高。”
担任QPR临时经理的负责人保罗·霍尔（Paul Hall）认为，如果提前罚款，比赛可能会大不相同。
“对我来说，这是罚款。我们不能怪裁判，但它确实影响了我们，并且确实稍微改变了游戏。”霍尔说。 “我认为，如果我们受到惩罚，它会使我们的尾巴升起，我们会更加相信自己。
“我们不能怪裁判，但我当然对这个决定不满意。我去过这种情况很多次，很少有人受到处罚，也没有在这种情况下受到罚款。”
