QPR Official Site - April 17, 1998
SUPER SUB SLADE
STEVE SLADE has enjoyed his recent involvement as a substitute with Rangers and is hoping to play his part in Sunday's crucial match at Bradford.
Steve says:"If we can win at Bradford, we�ll be nearly safe in the relegation battle. Three points would help to relax things a bit before the end of the season."
"I�m happy to be coming on as a sub and I�m happy to be part of the team. I can�t really grumble."
"I prefer playing wide at the moment. I seem to be getting more of the ball, I can attack defenders and play one-twos with our front players. So I�m enjoying playing out on the left."
TEAM NEWS for Sunday - Nigel Quashie was stretchered off against Oxford with a trapped nerve in his knee, but he�s making good progress and should be in contention for Sunday.

And if you were reading the QPR Official Site, today, 13 years ago...Sammy Koejoe - We had no money; but we bought him based on video!
SAMMY'S SUCCESS TARGET
SAMMY KOEJOE had his best run-out for Rangers so far in the defeat at Crewe.
The Dutch striker went on as a sub just before half-time, caused quite a few problems and nearly scored in the second period.
Sammy says: "We could have won the game but unfortunately we could not score the goals that our play deserved.
"I had a big chance to score. It was a good cross from Gavin Peacock from the left and my header was saved by the keeper. That's football - if you don't take your chances, you don't win games. And we saw that at Crewe.
"I think I am starting to find my form now at Rangers. I came here from Austria, where the game is very different. In England, you have to pass and then try to get in the box. But in Austria they like to build the play up first and then look to score goals.
"So the football in England was totally new to me when I signed for Rangers. But now I'm starting to learn more. Gerry is telling me what to work on and I know how the team play now. I'm feeling better and better everyday.
"I came here to play first team football. But Gerry told me I need to learn the game through the reserves. I have been able to pick up the pattern of play there and I've been getting a few goals in the Combination.
"My thoughts are already on next season. I hope I'll get more chances to play in the first team. Hopefully, I can score a few goals at the start of the season and go on to be a successful striker for Rangers."
