    Why start Austin

    I know it's the 'magic' of the cup and all that and we should send out our strongest 'possible' team .......but surely it's plain stupidity playing our only goal threat whose coming back from injury .....when Harry himself said last week that he didn't want him playing a full 90 against Donny . Lose Austin again and we are proper flocked !!!

    Add to this our recent history in the cup and it's baffling ......surely play some of the fringe players and accept the defeat !!

      Also I'm sure Austin would want to play! It's games like this you want to be involved in as a player!!

          HARRY IS A LEGEND WARNOCK WOULD HAVE PUT A LOAD OF RESERVES IN BUT HARRY THINKS OF THE FANS TRAVELLING UP HUNDREDS OF MILES

          that is the greatness of arry boy redknap only he would have sent almost a full side if we had sent a team of reserves we would have lost 8-0

            Because he wanted to win that's why. Charlie wanted to play I bet & none of us are club doctors or physios so have no knowledge on his recent injury. It was only 2 games out so probably a very slight tweak. Harry showed the cup & the travelling fans the respect it deserved.

            We lost. Move on.

              At least he did not take the Paul Lambert attitude to the best cup competition in the world.

                Being a foreigner, Lambert probably had no idea of the history of the competition and what it historically means to a lot of fans and players.
                Supporting QPR isn't just about a football team. It's about roots and identity.

                  Bravo Jimmy.........well said. We have far too many whining on here, if it ain't cause we got done 4-0
                  by a top prem team, it's because we didn't try, and if it's not that then it's because our best striker played. If he hadn't played him then he's wrong for not trying...

                    Hitchcock was at Goodison, saw him board the train back to Euston
