QPR's Next game after the Internationals: Newly-promoted Doncaster Rovers at Loftus Road. Doncaster have made a very solid start to the season. Doncaster won their opening game, 1-0 against Derby County. They then drew Saturday's game at home to Cardiff, 1-1. In the Carling Cup, Doncaster experienced their own 'shock" defeat away to Notts County.

- First Team Squad and team photo - (something nice to have on a club website!). First Team Squad and photo Doncaster play at home in red and white hoops; while their second strip is...blue and white hoops.
The two clubs have played each other a handful of times. The last time the two sides met, was in January 1985 when First Division QPR were knocked out in the Third Round of the FA Cup by Third Divison Doncaster, then managed, by Billy Bremner (I believe). (Just one of scores of "shock cup defeats" QPR seem to have experienced over the decades.) Prior to that Cup game, the two sides had not met since QPR won promotion in 1966-67 season. See head-to-head results.
