Dowie: We can handle favourites tag
QPR boss Iain Dowie says his side can handle the pressure that comes with being league title favourites.
The West London club beat Barnsley 2-1 on the opening day of the new season, but talk soon turned to Dowie’s alleged bust up with co-owner Flavio Briatore over transfer policy.
"People will make mischief," Dowie said.
"It always surprises me when people don't want to be positive and instead write negative stories. I'm a positive person.
"We have high-profile owners here and the tag of favourites is going to stay. But we have to embrace that and tackle it head-on."
