Retire his shirt or statue ?

there isn't a material for a statue tough enough to do him justice!

and there certainly isn't another player tough enough to do him justice either; so I'm torn.

Or a bust in the foyer as a constant reminder to everyone else what a proper servant to the club looked like and what he stood for.

fukin hell; i'm feeling very emotional over this.

Remember having a pint with him in the Red Lion in Hillingdon.; even though he was only 4 years older than me I was like an excited schoolchild.

probaly be more apt to do something with the academy as he came through the youth team at QPR, possibly name something after him when we move to the training ground next year

Perhaps an annual friendly against one of the other London clubs for The Alan McDonald Trophy,the proceeds going to worthy cardiac charities?

Poll: So how was the season for you?

We may get the Alan McDonald suite. With talk of a new stadium apart from Tony Ingham i can't think of a man more deserved of a stand being named after him.

I was thinking that when we move to a new stadium the club should erect a dozen or so statues around the ground to honour the genuine legends of Queen's Park Rangers Football Club. The word gets used all the time now but the truth is that only a select group deserve that accolade, and Macca is certainly one of them.

In the mean time the club definitely needs to organise something for him and his family. Obviously, I don't know their financial situation but you can't imagine he'd have earned enough to set them up. Maybe a pre-season game against Glentoran or a Northern Ireland XI?

Well, if there's going to be a QPR themed plane, how about naming it the Alan McDonald?

That or making the players watch Loftboy's u-tube of the milk Cup v Chelsea immediately before next season's game at the South London Nazis and stuffing them 6-0

i think the swansea game should be played in his honour and also the players should wear his name on their shirts.
A stand in his name would make his family so proud

i think the idea of naming blocks after players is fantastic but the Alan Mcdonald Stand in place of Ellerslie Road would be a great gesture

Seconded.

It says a lot that thread could be started years after Macca had retired, not responding to anything he had just done, but because he was remembered as an example of what a QPR captain should be
