Witney United's players get the chance to take on a Football League team when Queen's Park Rangers visit Marriotts Stadium on Tuesday, January 23.

The match, for which ticket details will be released next week, came about through the friendship of Witney secretary Ady Bircher and former Oxford United midfielder Richard Hill, who is now No 2 to manager John Gregory at Loftus Road.

Hill's son, Dan, plays for Witney's youth team.

"When Richard got the job at QPR I asked him whether it would be possible to bring a QPR side down to play us," said Bircher. "And he stuck to his word.

"They are without a league game that weekend, so Richard or John Gregory will be bringing a side along.

"We're not sure what sort of team they are sending, but we've been promised a few first-teamers. We're hoping that Dexter Blackstock (the ex-Oxford United youngster) will play.

"QPR are getting a shirt signed by Dexter, so we can auction it off."

Witney are looking for sponsorship for the game. If you can help, contact Bircher on 07747 123411.
