"Michael Mancienne and Simon Walton have both been named in the starting XI for this evening's Reserve match at Crystal Palace....The Pontin's Holidays Combination fixture, which is being played at Bromley FC, sees Mancienne return to action for the first time in six weeks after he was forced off at Stoke City in November with back and hamstring trouble.Walton, meanwhile, will be using the game to show Luigi De Canio what he can do in his preferred role in central midfield.
Steve Brown, who takes the Reserves this evening, has once again opted for an attack-minded 4-3-3 formation with Matt O'Brien and Chris Arthur playing alongside Walton in the centre of the park.
Aaron Morgan, Josh Parker and Angelo Balanta, who came on for the first team at Chelsea on Saturday, line up in attack.
Billy Coyne and Andrew Howell occupy the right back and left back berths respectively, while Aaron Goode will be partnering Mancienne in the centre of defence. QPR


South London Press/Toby Porter - At the end of the Day?Jan 7 2008
MILLWALL keeper Chris Day was yesterday due to undergo an ankle operation which could keep him out for at least three months.
But the 32-year-old is out of contract in July so the Lions could have a duty to offer him a deal to allow him to recover fully. Report



Praise for the QPR Programmes
QPR Official Site = HOOPS' EARNS HIGH PRAISE
'Hoops,' the Clubs official matchday programme, has received high praise from the writers of Programme Monthly.
In their fourth part of a series of reviews of the 92 Football League Club programmes for 2007/08, they summarised: "This is a big programme which gives full value for money. It is nicely balanced between substantial text and short, snappy features. 'Hoops' will be in the mix at awards time."
'Hoops' Programme Editor, Ian Taylor, expressed his delight at the review, telling www.qpr.co.uk: "This just goes to show that the amount of time and effort myself, our contributory writers and the designers at CRE8 put in pays off.
"After finishing runners-up in the Football League's Programme of the Year award last season, we were keen to progress to the next level and positive feedback like this should stand us in good stead when the awards are handed out at the end of the season QPR
