UNDER 18's BACK ON FORM

After a run of three straight defeats Rangers' under 18's got back to winning ways on Saturday with a 2-1 victory at Wycombe Wanderers.

Joe Gallen made five changes to the side that lost heavily to Brighton last weekend. Alex Sethi returned at left back, there were three changes in midfield with Andrew Howell, Tamba Ngongou and Chris Arthur all coming in whilst Jacob Child started his second game of the season.

Rangers took the lead shortly before the break when Bradley Bubb's cross found the feet of Ricky Sappleton who slotted home his eighth goal of the season. Wycombe levelled things up after 52 minutes but Rangers were back in front five minutes later as centre back Jonathan Munday continued his fine scoring run to head home his fifth of the season.

Wycombe's hopes of winning the game were further reduced shortly afterwards when Boateng was sent off for picking on Alex Sethi. First his put his hand in Sethi's face but escaped with a warning, he was then booked for fouling him and was finally red carded after stamping on the unfortunate defender right in front of the officials.

Wanderers tried to rally with ten men and put some pressure on the Rangers goal in the closing minutes but couldn't capitalise on their chances and The R's held out to take all three points and retain second place in the division.

QPR: Sandercombe, Yelland, Munday, Goode, Sethi, Howell (Smart), O'Brien, Ngongou, Arthur, Sappleton, Bubb. Subs not used: Harvey, Rose, Child, Hussey. 

The under 18's have a small break now but are back in action on January 7th 2006 when we welcome Colchester United to Harlington.
