The Malaysian businessman also hailed the players and moved to quash reports that suggested a brawl had broken out at the event
"I'm aware of some headlines appearing in tomorrow newspaper (sic)
After a great win boys were given permission for a Sunday lunch," he Tweeted late on Monday evening

Steven Caulker slipped over and hurt his head and is fine
Nothing else to report
"Great team spirit
We are one
Best I've seen since being chairman
A few sensational headlines but team has done us proud."
Last month Redknapp had said there would be no Christmas party for his squad but QPR spokesman Ian Taylor confirmed the gathering on Sunday had been sanctioned
"Following Saturday's Premier League win versus Burnley & with no further fixture for nine days the club can confirm players were allowed to have a Sunday lunch together," he wrote on Twitter
"Steven Caulker was not involved in an altercation

"The club will be making no further comment."
