Bill Keech made 69 appearances for the Rangers between 1899 and 1902. Surprised there was a programme.

It's a bit confusing because there's a Brompton in Kensington, and one in Gillingham.

According to Hitchin Town's website QPR played Hitchin on the 26th October 1901 (which also jibes with the dates of the QPR player mentioned above.) It was a South Eastern Counties League match which QPR won 9 — 0 (those were the days eh?)

Some info on the S. E. Counties League from the Herts Advertiser Saturday 21st September 1901

1. London clubs: Millwall, Queens Park Rangers, Tottenham Hotspur, West Ham United, and Clapton Orient.

2. County clubs: Chesham Generals, Chesham Town, Grays United, Hitchin, Luton, and St Albans.

The first four London clubs are the Reserves of the strong sides which compete in the S.L and the W.L. They are debarred from the local cup ties, being professionals. London senior amateur clubs don't relish being defeated by Reserves, as undoubtedly most of them would be, and therefore decline to meet them; the S. L. don't admit the Reserves of their Division I to membership in Division II; the London League Division I supplies only half a season's programme, and so a new body was necessary as far as they were concerned.
The county contingent find fairly strong opponents remarkably scarce in their respective districts. Perhaps a bigger drawback is the great difficulties they encounter in getting across country in such counties as Berks, Bucks, Herts, and Beds. Two or three changes of train are often necessary, occasionally to other companies' lines, and the delays at the various junctions are irritating, of long duration, and, in the end, expensive, especially to amateur teams, who can seldom afford to give the whole of Saturday. They say they find it a saving in every way to come up to London, and they are desirous of meeting in a serious competition the strong Reserve teams of the first class professional clubs.

looked on shepherds bush wikipedia, interesting reading, but no mention to my knowledge that qpr ever played them, even though both qpr and shepherds bush played at loftus road, qpr kicked them out after or during the war.
shepherds bush fc even played on shepherds bush green.
