Edit another year On This Day...:
40 years ago today: August 23, 1975: Derby County 1 QPR 5.:
One of QPR's greatest-ever away results: QPR travelled to then-League Champions Derby County and won 5-1 at the Baseball Ground. A Stan Bowles hatrick with additional goals from Dave Thomas and Dave Clement. Making the result even more impressive, QPR played without their regular center-backs David Webb and Frank McClintock; and instead had inexperienced reserve defenders: Ron Abbott (formerly a center-forward) and Tonny Tagg. QPR's team that day: Parkes - Clement Abbott Tagg Gillard - Masson Francis Leach - Thomas Bowles Givens - Sub: Beck.
19 years ago today since Kevin Gallen got that terrible career-changing injury playing at Portsmouth: August 23rd 1996. After scoring on opening day at home to Oxford, Gallen scored twice in QPR's first away game at Portsmouth. Unfortunately in scoring that second goal, he got injured with a cruciate knee injury; missed the rest of the season. And to a great extent was never quite the same again.
10 Years Ago: August 23, 2005, Northampton 3 QPR 0 and QPR went out of the cup.
Ian Evatt made his debut (and was sent off). Also playing for QPR and making his full QPR debut: Ugo Ukah. QPR's team that night was ...Royce, Ukah, Evatt, Shimmin, Milanese, Miller, Bircham (Baidoo 59), Bean, Brown (Bignot 46), Gallen, Moore. - Subs Not Used: Cole, Hislop, Bailey. -
29 Years Ago: Also on this day: August 23, 1986: Southampton 5 QPR 1. Dave Seaman made his QPR debut on opening day, as QPR lost 5-1 at Southampton (Colin Clarke hatrick for Southampton) QPR's team include Alan Brazil as sub.
QPR's Team Seaman - Neil McDonald Chivers Dawes - Fereday James M. Allen Robinson - Byrne Bannister Sub: Brazil
