QPR players have been told they will be fined £250 every time they pass to Adel Taarabt in their own half.
Boss Neil Warnock laughed off the idea – but admitted he used the threat part joking, part seriously during training sessions.

The source said: "It’s common knowledge among the players. And although no one’s quite sure if the manager means it – no one’s going to risk finding out."
Warnock agreed the Hoops highest scorer’s tricks on the ball were needed only in the final third.
He said: "We’ve said about the Adel fine out loud – but it’s part of the banter that goes on when we’re with the squad in training."
