Only two in mine. My best mate Bill, who died a few years back, and me. Probably was this shared passion that drew us together. Most at my school were Arse supporters.

good thread mate. could you please state where you went to school as well as age for this survey please. would make interesting reading. 46, school in acton (same school as warren neil), was mostly black kids not into footbal,l but the ones that were and the other white kids were nearly all R's.

Not a single one in mine as far as I know (It was a huge school). I only left mine this year though as I'm 16.
Mine was full of Chels***, Arsenal, Man Utd, Liverpool fans with the odd Southend and Ipswich fan dotted here and there.

I think I was the only one!
Most were Spurs who were the "Glory Hunter" team back then, there was a few pockets of Charlton, but mostly Spurs if I remember correctly.
Fair play to Chelsea fans back then, they were "proper" Chelsea fans not nouveau blues

Isaac Newton school in Ladbroke grove was mainly QPR as far as i could remember (it was rather a long time ago).
Also attended the Harrow boys club which was also QPR, we even used the clubs cast off shirts for football matches.

Started in Pope Johns in White City, wasn't aware that there was anyone who didn't support the Rs back then at such a young age. Junior (St. Josephs Harlesden) & secondary school (Cardinal Hinsley in Harlesden), was originally full of Rs, but I remember a load going over to Arsenal during their Irish revolution Why is the spell-check trying to change Harlesden to Harlem I personally can relate to the similarities

Born 1966 and schooled at Sir Christopher Wren, Bloemfontein Road. Being less than a mile from the ground (opposite General Smuts) it was mostly QPR.
Two years below me was the great Sir Les and his little friend Denis Wise who I'm told used to stand in the loft.

My brother, who has supported the Rs all of his life (unlike me who came to them relatively late in the game) was the only one who supported QPR in his school, and in fact chose QPR because everyone else was a West Ham fan, or a Spurs fan. We lived in Chelmsford, Essex.

cardinal manning 67-72 (Ladbroke Grove) probably 6 in each year but most of us actually went to games, majority were chelsea who were flamboyant in those days, rest were the usual glory hunters following the teams in vogue at the time

I was also at the Wren 67-72 and it was as I said in an earlier post mainly Rangers then. You would always get the odd glory hunter like Paul Cook of Sex Pistols fame who was Chelsea, not the brightest button back then. Wise did go to Rangers like most of his relatives that lived on the White City Estate and what an intresting bunch they were
