Steve Burke turns Fifty

Ex-QPR FA Cup Final Replay Sub Celebrates Birthday-

Former QPR Winger, Steve Burke Turns 49 - Born September 29, 1960.

Burke joined QPR in September 1979, signed by Tommy Docherty from Brian Clough's Nottingham Forest for 150,000 pounds, (before he made his League debut).
In his first season, Burke was a regular in the QPR team. But once Docherty left, under Venables and his successors, Burke made few appearances and went out on loan a couple of times. Burke was hower QPR's (one) substitute in the FA Cup Final replay "travesty" against Spurs and came on.
In September 1986, Burke joined Doncaster on a free transfer. Burke's Playing Career

I actually liked Steve, a good drinking mate too. Shame he was never given the credit he was due. He gave QPR 100%.

Exactly what I was thinking, used to love to see him on the wing, always gave the team 100%, shame the same can't be said about some of our recent big names.

Always thought that him and Dave McCreery were vastly underrated members of what was a good and very entertaining squad.....

A constant under Tommy Docherty but not under Venables...

(Ah Docherty: Signing Burke and Hill...Hazell and Wicks...Mcreery and Currie...and Woods...and Rodgers and Davidson and..
