A recent poster (now banned and who shall remain nameless - but I think is in his 40s) called me 'my son' and claimed to have seen more Rs games than I'd had hot dinners! That was quite funny as I'm one of the more mature (in years anyway) posters on this board and have been going to LR for > 45 years. It made me wonder who the oldies are on this board? I know that I share a birth year with Sir Neil of Warnock and a certain regular poster from Aberystwyth but a little younger than 'Arry.
You are right on both counts Ron; you are a mere youngster in age .
I'm the youngster when it comes to supporting QPR. My eldest son took me into the loft during the last season when we were in the prem previously, 1999 or 2000 I think. At that point Grimsby became my no2 team as I lost my sanity and became an R.

I'm a baby boomer and my first recollection of going to the R's with my Dad, was in 1953. This was about the time when QPR had their first set of floodlights installed.

The year I came down to london to seek my fortune etc etc. In November of that year I stood behind the goal (legally) for 2 shillings and sixpence (12 1/2p) at Wembley to see England beaten for the first time ever at home by a foreign country. England 3 Hungary 6. In the return in Budapest the following year I think we lost about 7-1. Humbling.

When Hungary scored against England a couple of years ago in some pis-pot friendly game Phil Neville on the Five Live co-commentary described it as "probably the greatest moment in Hungarian football history". Knowledge.

As you say, what a (fat) player! Also there was a guy called hidekuti who was doing an early Taarabt all over the middle and frontline. Captain Billy Wright was given a right old runaround and shown up for the donkey he had become.

The year after my birth The Rolling Stones released what IMHO,with Brian still alive and having important creative input,is their best album:
Oh and something big happened in sport that year in this country too. Hard to remember. Did England win The Tiddlywinks World Cup?

Let's face it I'm not getting any thinner.
Pass the cake and pies please.
Just Googled who was born the same year and was fascinated. For me, they included Pamela Anderson, Kurt Cobain, Carla Bruni, and Nick Clegg.
I was born in the same year as that utterly useless cnt Ed Miliband!! What a f*cking disgrace..........
I shall from now on be telling people that I was conceived during the first Summer of Love in the back of a mini-van by two hippies far too young to be having it off and who turned out to be pretty much the most useless parents I could have wished for..... even if they mean well.

Ed the Red was born Christmas Eve 1969....but the summer of love was 1967 (although Woodstock was indeed 1969) Long gestation eh?

I'm a bit luckier than that, I was at Wembley in '66 & '67 to see the two greatest wins ever.
My dad has quite a good footie cv - saw all the England games in 1966 and he still talks about some game between the scum and Moscow Dynamo after the war when he was sitting on the touchline and also the last Man Utd match in England before the Munich aircrash - an epic match at Highbury.
The nearest celebrity to my DOB seems to be Kate Bush - she was born 15 days later.
