Edit/Bump - 48 Years ago!

December 28, 1974

December 28th 1974: Recently-appointed, Dave Sexton-managed QPR against a recently-having-dismissed-Dave Sexton Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.

QPR had the recently-signed Don Masson in midfield and John Beck in his best QPR season. Chelsea I believe were managed by Ron Stuart with Eddie McCreadie as Coach.

Score: Chelsea 0 QPR 3 - Two from Don Givens; one from Gerry Francis.

- QPR: Parkes - Clement Webb Mclintock Gillard - Francis Beck Masson - Givens Bowles Thomas

- Chelsea: Phillips - Locke Hay Droy Harris - Wilkins Hollins Kember Cooke - Hutchinson Garland - Sub: Houseman

That was a good day at the Bridge.
Bowles & Givens gave Hay & Tree trunks Droy the run around and Francis ran midfield making Hollins and beaky Kember look right mugs. Chopper was so past it he did'nt even see Thomas go past him every time he had the ball let alone try and kick him.
It could have been 6 or 7 that day.
Oh for those days to return.

One of the best performances I can remember seeing from Rangers away from the Bush.

Up there with the 3-0 at Tottneham in 75-76 & the East Anglian double under Venables in 83-84.

Four games that we controlled from the first second until the final whistle.
