LONDON - The Premier League has told QPR and Chelsea it has no plans to drop the pre-match handshake before Saturday’s West London derby, with both clubs indicating they will "respect” it.QPR’s Anton Ferdinand has indicated he will not shake hands with Chelsea defenders John Terry or Ashley Cole.In July, Chelsea captain Terry was acquitted of racially abusing Ferdinand in last year’s corresponding match. "We’ll go ahead with it, yes.” Di Matteo said. "We’ll respect the rules.”"And respect the protocol that is in place from the Premier League and set a positive standard to the millions of people watching across the world.”Senior officials from Chelsea and QPR have been in talks to defuse the growing tension surrounding the match at Loftus Road but the Premier League has intervened to say protocol must be followed.Although Terry was cleared in court, the former England captain still faces a separate FA charge - which he denies - over the Ferdinand incident. That hearing is expected to begin on 24 September.
