Home to Newcastle 
Good luck to QPR youth.
It will be interesting, 2,3,4 years from now, how many of the players will have gone on to make the first team. Hopefully more than in recent years.

QPR Under-18's will lock horns with Newcastle United in the fourth round of the FA Youth Cup, sponsored by E.ON.
Today's draw pitted Steve Brown's men against the Geordies, in a tie to be played at Loftus Road before January 17th 2009.
Speaking exclusively to www.qpr.co.uk, boss Steve Brown expressed his delight at the draw.
"It's a great tie for us," he said.
"I wanted a home draw and to get a side like Newcastle United, with their massive history, is magic.
"I don't know much about them to be honest, but we'll have them scouted and we'll be ready for them."
Brown, who saw his side progress to round four thanks to a Josh Parker inspired comeback against Bristol City last night, added: "It's great to play big Club's Academy sides - we believe we can compete with them and in the past we've coped very well against sides of this magnitude.
"That's the level we want to be at. It's the best sort of development for these youngsters and we'll relish it."
