Four-star R's excite Flowers

Tim Flowers has targeted Premier League opposition after four-star QPR sent Carlisle packing from the Carling Cup.

Damion Stewart opened the scoring before Emmanuel Ledesma grabbed a hat-trick to complete the rout as the R's booked a safe passage through to the third round of the competition.

Assistant boss Flowers and manager Iain Dowie caused an upset last season when they steered their former club Coventry to a shock win at Old Trafford against Manchester United - and the Loftus Road number two is eyeing a repeat in this year's competition.

"I'd like a home draw so our fans can see us play," Flowers said.

"But more than that, I want a big club.

"Coventry beat United last year, then played West Ham. We had a good cup run and generated a hell of a lot of money at the same time."
