This is me front and centre leading the team out. My dad is on the left kneeling take photos. Jim Gregory is on the right with his back to the camera. So this was in 82 and either against Palace in the FA Cup quarter final or last game of the season against Cambridge. Anyone else?

Oh yes. FA Cup 3rd round game with Aylesbury. Trevor Sinclair gave me a Les Ferdinand shirt at about 2pm as a keepsake for the day, then at five to three Les didn't have a shirt to wear for the match. Teams delayed coming out while I ran to get it out of my backpack  |  | | |

Does "Trevor Sinclair gave me a Les Ferdinand shirt at about 2pm as a keepsake for the day" translate to, " I 'alf-inched Les' shirt while no one was looking, but they called the rozzers so I had to give it back?"   |  | | |

I was an innocent party in a prank by Sinclair and Brevett, who both thought it was hilarious. | | | |

West Ham at home 1987/88 got a picture with my face player Wayne Fereday, me looking like Tiny Tim Cratchet from the 1984 version of a Christmas Carol and him like the moustachioed one from Hall & Oates. I took that picture with me to the London Masters a couple of years ago and had a then and now shot - he was brilliant. Must have been one of Nicky Johns' on,y first team starts as Seaman was injured! |  | | |

Yes me and my twin brother were. Versus Southampton at Home 1991 and we won 2-1. Have got the photos and programme at home. I dont remember much about the game, except being stuck in a South Africa Road lift when we scored the first goal. Their goal was a penalty. I remember meeting all the players before and after the game likes of - Mcdonald, Wegerle, Wilkins and then jumping on the Southamton coach where we met Flowers, Le Tissier and asked Shearer to get us Le Tissier's autograph ha ha...
also remember wilkins asking for plenty of pleases and thank you's when he was giving autographs like he was the bollocks - what a pr!ck!

My daughter was a mascot in the England v Spain friendly at Old Trafford a few years back. She held hands with David Villa on that day. It was her 1st taste of live football. I then took her to Wolves v QPR when Wolves won 1-0 and were promoted.
And now she and I go to every Rs game, home and away! |  | | |

Don't you remember which match you were mascot at, or were you mascot twice? If there was a rocking atmosphere and a load of grief at the end then that was the Palace match. It would tell you the names of the mascots in the programme. | | | |

I was a mascot twice, both games. My name appeared in the Palace programme, the mascot info was scrubbed out for the Cambridge game. My grandad worked with Jim Gregory match days. | | | |

Nice pic Ozhoop.
I was very lucky to be mascot 4 times in the early 80s and QPR 'guest of the day' at Anfield as they didn't allow mascots.
All the games were away at Villa, Ipswich, Everton and Watford.
The day at Anfield was awesome and they gave us a free run if the trophy room and let me and the old man pick any trophies to get out and have photos.
Brilliant memories and loads of stories that will stay with me for a lifetime.
If I can work out how to attach some pics I will attach them.

Against Sheff Weds last day of 92/93 season. Took 3 penalties v Tony Roberts. The first one I close my eyes and hit the ball as hard as I could and struck the post. The next two I scored although Our Tone was a bit flappy with them.
Earlier my Dad introduced me to Clive Wilson and asked me if I knew who it was. I replied 'I don't know, all the brown players look the same to me'. Willo wasn't impressed.
My Mum commented that stadium announcer kept saying what a nice boy I was over the PA |  |
