Apparently we are playing tonight although you wouldn't actually believe it judging by the lack of interest at the moment..... Anyway whilst Norway puts together the Match Day thread this can be used to talk about aything relating to tonights games.....there are 8 other games in the Championship..... Brighton v Bristol City Cardiff v Boro Charlton v Preston Huddersfield V MK Dons Hull v Ipswich Forest v Burnley Rotherham v Reading Bolton v Brum Up the R's
Some lazy BBC journalism regarding the match date and reference to Perch being red carded at Birmingham when I believe he's due to miss this match for picking up his 5th yellow card of the season? The question of his continued selection at RB is another matter. I'm hoping JET can work his magic again tonight with his scoring boots on. QPR v Sheff Wed please log in to view this image please log in to view this image please log in to view this image Sky Bet Championship Venue: Loftus Road Date: Tuesday 20 August Kick-off: 19:45 BST Coverage: Listen on BBC local radio; live scores on the BBC Sport website TEAM NEWS QPR striker Jay Emmanuel-Thomas is set to keep his place as Charlie Austin remains out with a hamstring problem. Winger Jamie Mackie has a similar injury, but Gabriele Angella could feature in defence after James Perch's red card against Birmingham. A late call will be made on Sheffield Wednesday forward Marco Matias and on-loan midfielder Alex Lopez is absent. But Carlos Carvalhal has options in Lewis McGugan, Jose Semedo and Jeremy Helan, as well as striker Atdhe Nuhiu. MATCH FACTS The Hoops are unbeaten in seven home games against the Owls (W3 D4), last losing to them at Loftus Road in October 2000. Wednesday have found the net in 10 of their last 11 meetings with QPR, including each of the last seven. No side has won more points from losing positions than QPR this season (7, level with Brentford). However, Rangers have also dropped a league-high 10 points from winning positions. The Owls have kept just one clean sheet in their last 10 away games (W2 D4 L4). http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/34512294
Don't get why there is a lack of interest.....are people REALLY that fairweather? Being QPR fans should be enough to take the rough with the smooth and enjoy each game as it comes. Mystified tbh.
Always excited match day, not feeling overly confident about tonight however as always 100% behind the club and all who sail in her U RRRRRRRR'SSSS
Im on my way...and if the RRRRswork as hard as i have to finish work today and leave before 4...then they will do OK Come on u RRRRs.
For those of us overseas looks like coverage will be on BBC Radio London 94.9 which should be available online...... Lets hop for an inspiring performance tonight and show this league that we are a decent side......
Im certainly struggling to keep intrest of our little ol' club after latest twist and turns. After i found out the results of the youth team and reserves i began to wonder what the hell? Is this club really so bad that we get stuffed everywhere and by everyone ? Is everything really so difficult that seemingly good proffesionals (i presume) cant do anything about it . By that i mean DEFENDING and GOALKEEPING! Club who suppose to fight promotion with the players like Fer, Sandro, Onuoha, Perch, Konchesky, Green and the rest have let clearly most goalsin than ANY team in this (second level) division. Ramsey has really did it. He has made a bad defence much worse in a few lousy months. Oh my god! Now after letting that out im going to watch/listen this nights encouterer between Sheffield Wednesday and our beloved QPR. I dont know much about wednesday and i even dont know if they are up or below us before tonights match??? I dont even guess our line up to this match and only know two players who are in the starting XI. They are of course Green and Henry. Ramsey probably has certain kind of otherwise blanco paper for starting line ups but there is those two names already printed. Have we any chance to win this match??? Maybe, but we have to score atleast three goals to do it. Without Austin it could be a tricky problem. However im bit of a optimistic nature so i go for a 2-2 draw. Dutch connection will score our goals before Ramsey take them off. Is this match live in tv? Radio?
Have a feeling Brighton will come a cropper against Bristol City, they were superb Friday evening beating Forest 2-0.
QPR: Green, Onuoha, Hall, Hill, Konchesky, Tozser, Sandro, Phillips, Chery, Luongo, Emmanuel-Thomas. Subs: Smithies, Angella, Henry, Doughty, Fer, Hoilett, Faurlin. Hill in! Henry on the bench and Fer! Tozser instead of Faurlin and Doughty. Is this Colin's team?
Interesting line up, maybe Ramsey knows Henry is a non-starter and better players in midfield, surprised Fer on bench.
