I just received an invitation from the club to attend the Alec Stock tribute day as their guest on 15th March. As it happens, that is a couple of weeks after I celebrate attending my first ever QPR match - at the tender age of 3 - 75 years ago on 25th February.

Thanks Maude. If I go I am hoping that Mark Lazarus will be there. I have been trying to contact him by phone but can't get an answer; could be on holiday I suppose. If he has not been invited I intend to raise hell with the club!

Well done Gramps.
It has been a long time coming but at least you have been invited to a special game.

If gramps? that is an honour not to be passed up on. rubbing shoulders with all those greats of the club for me that is the stuff dreams are made of. I bought your book before i joined the board and just used to read the posts, so please do go gramps because both my Father and I enjoyed the book and it was for a good cause so you deserve the day for all your work, think of it as carrying on your work and maybe some more copies sold, bit more publicity could get the till ringing some more gramps. but well done and good luck to you

Congratulations young man, I hope you enjoy the day. I just hope that the team also rise to the occasion and do the memory of Alec proud.

Enjoy Gramps. You deserve it.
I would just like to be able to get to a game at LR sometime. It's been over 20 years since I have been able to do that!

Obviously if any of the very first QPR side under Alec Stock in Aug 1959 should be invited
