A scary stat 23:09 - Aug 2 with 2345 views | onlyrinmoray | I see the last time Rangers won away the first game of the season was at West Ham Upton Park where we won 3-0. I went to that game with my at that time, two little boys We went in the wrong end amongst the home fans I went down the front to help them get a better look. I deliberately went up to a woman and asked if she would move to let them see better" no chance "was her reply and we ended up way up the back with the boys balancing on a stanchion to see. I cant remember much about the game except that Paul Parker scored On the way home on the underground we went past a cemetery my youngest in a broad Scottish accent said" are all the dead people in London buried there Dad ? " much smiling and laughter from nearby passengers. One of whom was a Sikh with a turban which fascinated the youngest one (We were on hols from the Highlands, not many Sikhs up our way) What is really worrying is those little boys are now 39 and 42 years old So Im not too confident about tomorrows result | | | | |

A scary stat on 23:29 - Aug 2 with 2283 views | CamberleyR | Parker's only goal for us was against Luton in a 6-1 win at LR in 1990. The scorers in the West Ham game were an OG, Bannister and Brock. | |

A scary stat on 00:13 - Aug 3 with 2197 views | DannyPaddox | Another scary stat. 1938. Elm Park, Biscuit Land. The only time QPR have won on the opening day of the season on an English football ground outside of London. Sounds too bad to be true. From a previous thread entitled, Astonishing opening day fact about QPR. You won't believe it! | | | |
A scary stat on 03:41 - Aug 3 with 2107 views | Hooparoo | I don’t know what it is and maybe I’ve just got Kangaroos loose in my top paddock but this season is reminding me of our Warnock promotion season. A few experienced journeymen, a sprinkling of good young loans from the prem and the lowest expectations from the fans I can recall in recent memory. Maybe Pugh is our Taarabt - The spark that lights it all up. Or, maybe I’m just crazy. 😬 [Post edited 3 Aug 2019 3:56]

A scary stat on 14:46 - Aug 3 with 1557 views | timcocking | I seem to have gone from horrified to strangely optimistic. I've heard and read some reassuring stuff. Eight of that starting lineup played for us last season, plus Hugill and Amos who i'm hoping are upgrades. Is it possible Mark Warburton is in fact the miracle worker we need? That'd be truly something. Vive la QPR! | | | |

A scary stat on 17:15 - Aug 3 with 1428 views | paulparker | Funny enough we had a new team that day as well Parker , Coney , Brock , Dennis etc | |
| And Bowles is onside, Swinburne has come rushing out of his goal , what can Bowles do here , onto the left foot no, on to the right foot
That’s there that’s two, and that’s Bowles
