    I am and feel we should put out as strong a team as possible.

    we owe them one, big time.

    A bit concerned about 400 tickets not being sold.

    Anyone know if the pubs are 'neutral' again?

    Yes I am & have got £20 on this with my Brentford work mate, we have £10 on Home & away & give each other the draw & £10 who finishes higher, so if Rss win I only stand to lose £10 so I want the possible strongest team out there!

    Yes. But then I felt the same with Preston. We owe them a couple now too.

    I do, they must be due a walloping though I fear if it's a walloping to be had, it's coming our way

    I am because I am going and I am standing, so won't see anything.. So it would be nice to celebrate a win even if I don't see it...

    Would love to beat them but can't see it happening.
    Afraid I can't stand the thought of jeering Bees as they put us to the sword so not going. Very cowardly and hope I am wrong.

    I’m standing too. I’ll tell you what’s happening. The terrace is for reprobates like me though. Last time I stood down there was the glorious 1-0 defeat under Ramsey with JET taking long throws into an empty penalty area.

    Ian Holloway says 'it's about time we beat Brentford' as he assures QPR fans over team selection

    The Hoops travel to Griffin Park to take on play-off outsiders Brentford in a quest to get their first derby-day glory of the season.

    Ian Holloway has assured QPR fans that he intends to make Saturday's west London derby one to remember.

    The Hoops travel to Griffin Park to take on play-off outsiders Brentford in a quest to get their first derby-day glory of the season.

    Holloway has a largely under whelming record against his west London rivals, and after making five changes for Saturday's defeat to Preston, he's adamant that he is going to approaching the game with the sole intention of reclaiming the west London bragging rights.

    He said: "I rested one or two to play in that game – and we’ve got to get about them like our life depends on it.

    “We’ve got a local derby coming up. I can’t wait to get over there and absolutely chase them until they make mistakes.

    “We’re going to try and beat them. It’s about time we did. I haven’t done it since I’ve been back so it’s about time we did that."

    As well as the 2-2 draw against the Bees in November, QPR were dismantled in the Carabao Cup with a 4-1 defeat back in August; a result which Ollie is using as fuel to motivate his team.

    He said: "I made a load of changes in the cup game and we got stuffed. I didn’t like the feel of that.

    “Well done to them for the style that they play, but we’re going to try and stop them playing and force them to do all sorts of stuff.

    “If they (Brentford) are good enough to do it then well done to them, but let’s try and make it a local derby that we can remember for a long time.”

    At last he sounds like the tactical genius we've all been crying out for. :emoticon-0114-dull:

    He sounds like Mike Bassett before the Argentina game. Maybe Freeman will be our Tonka.

    This won’t make sense if you haven’t seen the film.

    Embarrassing that we are saying it's a ''big ask'' but I agree with you!
    Just hope we perform like Fulham/Villa away not Hull away.
    If the latter then Holloway won't hear the end of it.
