Well I for one am glad there were none of the kind of comments you have mentioned Paul especially after what was a special day for our club and sincerely hope there wont be any in the future either It seems at the moment there is a truce developing between fans from different sites and although it is early days I am sure we all hope it holds strong Not enough though for you to offer to buy me a pint in the Regents afterwards though eh? ;D |

Anyone who read Pete's truly reprehensible farewell diatribe against Paul Finney last week might question re the truce.
On the bright side, Pete is a small minority of Paladini apologists and wannabes. And hopefully most fans will come together Against Briatore/Ecclestone/Paladini as they see what's happening/not happening at Loftus Road
That being the case, hopefully, absolutely it will be a case on onwards and upwards

Only Stan the Man there. Why was there no Board, Manager or first team presence. This is shocking. It's not as if they are on tour yet and they have only just come back to training! I also noticed we had no QPR Press in attendance. Why was this? This aside i thought it was a very well organised event and it was a Bonus getting a chance to see the trophy!  |

LONDONIST Plaque Honours Founding Of Queens Park Rangers By Dean · July 11, 2011 at 10:00 am · 0 Comments · News · Report an error · A bumper year, this, for QPR: a return to the Premier League after a 15-year absence, and on a slightly less important though undoubtedly welcome note, a plaque to mark the club’s founding 125 years ago. As we discovered earlier this year in our map of London’s moving football clubs, the Hoops are one of the most travelled teams in the capital, with at least 20 different grounds during their history. The new plaque is at St Jude’s Hall, Queen’s Park, where in 1886 the club was formed by the merger of two youth teams, St Jude’s Institute and Christ Church Rangers. They turned professional in 1889, but it wasn’t until the 1960s that the club reached the top flight, where they mostly remained until relegation in 1996. After being purchased by a group including Bernie Ecclestone and Flavio Briatore in 2007, the club finished top of the Championship in 2010/11, and will again take their place among the English game’s elite. Inevitably, they’re among the favourites for relegation, so fans shouldn’t get too used to the top flight. londonist.com/2011/07/plaque-honours-founding-of-queens-park-rangers.php |

QPR Official Site
PLAQUE UNVEILING SUCCESSPosted on: Mon 11 Jul 2011 R's legend Stan Bowles was in attendance, as the Club marked the 125-year anniversary since two sides amalgamated to form Queens Park Rangers with a plaque unveiling at St. Jude's Hall on Saturday lunchtime - QPR's original headquarters. The event in Queen's Park proved to be a resounding success, with the Rangers faithful turning out in force to mark the milestone of a merger between St. Jude's Institute and Christ Church Rangers. Both teams amalgamated in 1886, after George Wodehouse Snr - founder of Christ Church Rangers - suggested that both Clubs combine forces following a match between the two sides. Speaking to www.qpr.co.uk at the event, former R's number 10 Bowles spoke of his pride at being asked to unveil the plaque, saying: "It's a great honour, as QPR is very special to me. "I used to hang around Queen's Park when I was younger, so I know it well. "I had no idea this was QPR's original home, so I think this is a fantastic idea to mark the spot." The event was largely pieced together by the QPR in the Community Trust - who also sponsored the plaque. Trust CEO Andy Evans continued: "When I looked at the crowd here for the unveiling of the plaque, there were so many individuals present that I've known over the years, who are QPR fans. "So many of them have actually got roots in Queen's Park. QPR really is part of this area and so many people that care about the Club have links to it. "It's very important that, as a Club, we're committed to community outreach work and recognise that this is an important part of what a Football Club should be doing." Westminster Council's deputy leader Robert Davis (pictured, left) added: "It is a great pleasure to mark the birthplace of Queens Park Rangers and the Club's ties with this area of Westminster. "With their rise into the Premier League this coming season, I can't think of a better time to do this. "The plaque serves as a reminder of how, through hard work and dedication, grassroots sports can blossom. "Hopefully it will inspire a generation of young footballers in Westminster to follow in the footsteps of the likes of Les Ferdinand, Rodney Marsh and Stan Bowles." www.qpr.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10373~2390216,00.html
