QPR's Julien Stephan:
"If you compare where we are now after four games and where we were last at the same moment (last season); big difference.
"It's just the beginning of the Championship. If you forget that the Championship is a battle each game, you can drop very quickly.
"The objective is to stay humble - very humble - because if you forget to be humble then this league will kill you immediately.
"So we have to stay humble - but stay ambitious as well."
Cardiff's Brian Barry-Murphy:
"We obviously wanted a win, but it hasn't happened yet. The players retain belief. I think we're improving a lot. There are going to be setbacks along the way and we have to take that on the chin.
"Disappointed with the result, obviously. We weren't at our best in the first half. Technically, we're normally much better than that. We didn't have the intensity we usually have.
"We had chances despite that, but we knew QPR were dangerous on the break - and they were. I think we showed signs of our quality in the second half, but it wasn't enough.
"We knew how dangerous they would be, but we gave the ball away in certain areas, particularly centrally.
"Our players always keep going right until the end. We created chances late in the game, we just couldn't take them.
"Even in the first half, when we weren't at our best, we had good chances, but I can't deny the fact that QPR also had good chances on the break and we obviously have to improve on that in this division."
