Queens Park Rangers's first top-flight game at Loftus Road since 1996 ended with a disappointing defeat by Bolton Wanderers - and what appeared to be a serious injury for Kieron Dyer.
Last season's npower Championship winners had started brightly, summer signing DJ Campbell seeing an effort ruled out for offside, before Dyer, signed on a free transfer from West Ham, fell awkwardly and had to be carried off with a reported broken metatarsal.
Bolton took the lead on the stroke of half-time with a fine curling effort from centre-back Gary Cahill.
An own goal from Danny Gabbidon, making his debut, and Kevin Davies' deflected strike effectively had settled matters ahead of a fourth for Fabrice Muamba following a swift counter-attack with 11 minutes left.
QPR defender Clint Hill was shown a red card in stoppage time.
