LANGLEY'S FAREWELL

Posted on: Sun 30 Apr 2006

Richard Langley makes his final Hoops appearance this afternoon

Richard Langley will play his final game in a Rangers shirt when the Hoops take on Champions Reading this afternoon.

The 26 year-old midfielder - who was told he would not be offered a new contract at the club just two days ago - returns from injury to partner Stefan Bailey and Scott Donnelly in a three man midfield.

Georges Santos also bows out at the Madejski Stadium, on a day when Steve Coppell's title charges go gunning for a new Football League record of 106 points.

Lee Cook and skipper Gareth Ainsworth will support Paul Furlong in attack, while the back four remains unchanged with Dan Shittu partnering Santos and Mauro Milanese and the transfer-listed Marcus Bignot occupying the full-back berths.

Steve Lomas misses out due to illness, while Shabazz Baidoo, Simon Royce and Marc Bircham have each failed to shake off their respective injuries.

Rangers' young-guns Ray Jones, Andrew Howell and Jon Munday are all named amongst the Hoops substitutes, as Gary Waddock's men attempt to spoil the Royals promotion party.

Despite having the Championship crown well and truly sewn up, Coppell has named his strongest possible starting XI, with top scorer Dave Kitson partnering master poacher Kevin Doyle up-front.

Reading: Hahnemann, Murty, Shorey, Sidwell, Sonko, Oster, Kitson, Harper, Ingimarsson, Convey, Doyle.

Subs: Stack, Gunnarsson, Hunt, Makin, Long.

QPR: P Jones, Bignot, Milanese, Shittu, Santos, Cook, Ainsworth, Donnelly, Langley, Bailey, Furlong.

Subs: Cole, Howell, Evatt, Munday, R Jones.
