Piece on him in the Sunday Times today all about QPR. Worth a detour.

Yes, very interesting little piece. Agree with all he says especially the premature sacking of Warnock. Nice little anecdotes on Ron Springett and Rodney.
Apart from calling South Africa Road an “end” - I guess that was the Times error rather than his.

We could have a QPR supergroup! Glenn Matlock (bass), Mick Jones (guitar), Bill Bailey (keys), Pete Doherty (vocals). Do we have a drummer?

I just found this

In an interview with Classic Rock magazine back in 2015, Ian Gillan talked about the thing he is most proud of, and it was being a QPR supporter:

“Still being a QPR supporter, I think. I haven’t been to Loftus Road for a while now, but I was at Wembley in 1967 when we beat West Brom in the League Cup final. I became good friends with Rodney Marsh [former QPR player]. He came to see us a few times. He came to a Gillan show once, around 1982. “Great show,” he said, when he came backstage, “but it’s not Deep Purple, is it?”

“I laughed it off, but it started me thinking. I called Jon Lord not long after that. We went out and had a meal and a chat, and the seeds of the Deep Purple re-formation were sown right there. So if you want to know who was behind that re-formation, blame Rodney Marsh.”

The Sunday Times article is behind their paywall so a lot won't have read it.

However when talking about Rodney Marsh, Glen mentions an incident where Rodney took a penalty and his boot came off which was caught by the goalkeeper who thought he'd saved the pen. Rodney then rolled the ball in.

I have vague recollections of my Dad mentioning something like this but does anyone on here remember seeing what actually happened.

"If you support a team, you’ve got to stick with them, even when the going’s tough. Managers may leave, players and Directors may leave, but fans go on for ever!”
