Where do we start? Small glass of Brandy on standby.......... Right then, here we go. The Apostrophe, what does it mean? Quite simple...........It means everything. Because without it, we are not who we think we are. Queens Park Rangers? I think not. We might as well call ourselves Real Madrid. I don't ask for much. I don't ask for Promotion. I don't ask for Trophys. I don't even ask for cup runs. But what I do ask for is quite simple. Spell the name of my Club properly. We are not Queens Park Rangers. (never have been, never will be) We are Queen's Park Rangers. It's not Rocket Science. What's going on? We should be told. Sort it out. There are only Four truths and constants in this world. 1. You come into this world with nothing. 2. You leave this world with nothing. 3. We are Queen's Park Rangers. 4. Ro land catches a whuppin in the Fantasy League. I'm leaving you now, I'm going back to my Brandy.

I must disagree with Gramps. I don't want the apostrophe back. Much tidier without it. For me it's nothing to do with tidiness but grammatical correctness. Care to step outside and settle this man to man? ;D Gone back to OZ Gramps so can't settle it man to man. Would you settle for a stand in? I'll see if I can arrange Anthony Joshua to take my place!! ;D

Should that be "R's" or "Rs"?

I too await. But it always possible arrived at it independently... The one absolute for certain is that it is incorrect to say "after 45 years the mystery is solved" - when it was solved 18 months ago! Another QPR Report "First"

I guess we have to believe him, well it would be churlish not to. However, I’m surprised that someone with his contacts couldn’t find an outlet, I’m pretty sure that I could.

Good going Mac. By the way when Imperium spoke to Ron Phillips I'm surprised that he didn't mention that he recently had the conversation with Mr Incenzo.

Incenzo did interview Ron Phillips prior to March 2011. The only thing I'm surprised about is that Incenzo sat on the apostrophe story all this time !!!

Ron Phillips remembers being interviewed by Tony Incenzo prior to 2011 but it was not about the apostrophe, and to the best of his recollection the subject never arose. I have spoken to Ron on the phone this afternoon.
