Chelsea boss Andre Villas-Boas says he wants to forget about John Terry's alleged racism towards Anton Ferdinand ahead of their FA cup clash with QPR next week.
The fourth-round draw will see Blues captain Terry go head-to-head with Anton Ferdinand four days ahead of the court case in which he stands accused of racially abusing the Rangers defender.
Extra police have been laid on for what is the first time the sides have met since October's controversial Barclays Premier League clash.
Television footage emerged after that game which prompted allegations Terry had racially abused Ferdinand, something the Chelsea and England captain denies.
"If you want to finish, avoid speculating about it, about the return to QPR, a repetition of the images," Villas-Boas told reporters.
"We can play our part, but so can the media.
"It's important to kick any discrimination out of the game, but it won't be a reminder of those incidents.
Villas-Boas reiterated he would have no qualms selecting Terry, saying: "I'll have no problem picking John - not at all.
"He'll have to compete against three others, but we'll make the right decision."
