QPR fans on Twitter want duo to play at Brentford
Many QPR supporters on Twitter want to see Charlie Austin partner Jay Emmanuel-Thomas in the west London derby at Brentford on Friday.
Rangers boss Chris Ramsey has confirmed the in-form Emmanuel-Thomas – who has scored three goals in his last four games – will start at Griffin Park.
But many fans hope that Austin, who is recovering from a hamstring injury that has kept him out for a month, will pass a fitness test and play alongside him.
The question is, if Austin is fit, does Ramsay go 2 upfront ? Austin HAS to play if fit for me. #QPR — Steve Heard (@SteveHeard82) October 27, 2015
Playing JET behind Charlie just makes sense. His work rate would allow Charlie to poach, and can get on the end of long balls from the CBs

@IJTaylor81 @OfficialJET10 @chazaustin9 JET with Austin would be great. We’d be unstoppable!! #QPR — QPR Pride of London (@QPRPride) October 29, 2015
@IJTaylor81 @OfficialJET10 @chazaustin9 100% agree! JET has been immense – but would really love to see JET and Charlie together #QPR

My team for Friday: Green, Onahua, hall, hill, Konchesky, Sandro, Luongo, Fer, Phillips, Jet, Austin #qpr — Ben Platt_qpr (@bplatt23) October 26, 2015
Friday’s game is the first meeting between the two sides since February 2004, when Paul Furlong and Kevin O’Connor – both now coaching at their respective clubs – were on the scoresheet.
And Rangers fans are looking forward to taking on their neighbours, with just two points between them in the Championship table.
Already nervous about Friday not played them since 2004!!
