Just watching Champions league Citeh game, they mentioned Kyle Walker’s pace & I must say he’s the quickest thing I’ve seen in a QPR shirt.
I remember away v Pompey November 2010 the 1-1 penalty game, he was out of position & John Utaka was away, Walker turned on the burners caught him up & regained possession, quickest thing I’ve seen on a football field. Des Walker was quick perhaps it’s the name? |  | | |  |

Seriously, I wouldn't bet against Fereday personally. |  |
| It's being so happy that keeps me going. |

Wayne Fereday |
Agreed, not the best footballer but super fast. I think he was up there with the top 100 meter sprinters at the time. |  |

Fereday for me too.
I know Witter was a junior sprinter and won some competition on ITV but I never saw him play. He wasn't exactly a regular... [Post edited 28 Apr 2021 21:47]

Another one for the Magic Tache vote. He was incredible.
Also, an underrated footballer, I thought. |  |

I’ll go Fereday too but in recent times BOS had some set of afterburners on him. Once he got going nobody was catching him
Honourable oppo mention to Franz Carr if anyone remembers him. He was properly rapid. |  | | |

Wayne Fereday for me. Used to go in the Paddock when he was in his prime and it was a sight to behold watching him run past some poor full back. | | | |

He was bloody fast but also bloody useless. One game at Spurs, he got so far ahead of their defence he had time to have two air swings at the ball before blazing it over at the third attempt, much to the amusement of the Spurs fans. Even us in the away end were laughing. | | | |

I'd say Wayne Fereday too
Less sure about our slowest player - we've had a lot of those.... | | | |

I always thought he was pretty fast. I haven't seen a lot of the other people mentioned on here play but he has a lot of pace. I wonder if our current coaches could have made a better footballer out of him? He didn't know how to use his pace so he'd often outrun the ball unfortunately! Seemed a nice fella though. |  | | |

Malcolm McDonald was rated as one of the quickest players of his time but Frank McKlintock, at the end of his career was far too experienced for him. Always timing his interceptions perfectly knowing he could never get near McDonald in a straight race. [Post edited 29 Apr 2021 7:48]

Went to Old Trafford once for CL semi final. Utd won 3-2 vs Milan.
Giggs was 32/33 and, as a junior, was quicker than Darren Campbell, who has an Olympic sprint meda l.
Christian Ronaldo made Giggs look like he was running through treacle. So Ronaldo as the quickest I've seen.
If QPR only, another vote for Fereday. |  |

I remember when we signed Kyle Walker on loan... I'd never heard of him. A few fans were saying "Why didn't the club get Kyle Norton on loan" as he was available at that time??? 2 minutes into that first match of season and I couldn't believe how quick he was. I actually thought at that moment 'this kid could play for England one day'! Flip of a coin as to whether Walker or Wayne Fereday were quicker in their prime???
I reckon quickest non QPR player was Gary Lineker ... I remember him tearing our defence a new one and scoring twice in the 82-83 season. |  | | |
