BMC 125 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Is there any connection between this old derby and QPR down south?No idea but I heard that QPR changed their hoops to blue from green to avoid confusion..They have some affiliation with the unmentionables perhaps?

Thermopylae 15,287 Posted December 30, 2012 Author Share Posted December 30, 2012 Always had a soft spot for the spiders ,my local club.Yes me too ... it really is remarkable that the football that came out of England was with the 2 teams in lines facing each other (as in rugby) but Queens Park developed the passing game that the whole world has used ever since Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Hubbard 280 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 I was taken aback by the QP supporters.OK I didn't exactly expect bolor hats and cries of "jolly good show Queens"...but what I wasn't prepared for was guys screaming at the polis to get Rangers supporters to fuck out of their section and vehement gestures towards the Rangers end when our songs echoed round the stadium. One guy actually gestured "come ahead" towards our end."Chucky" and "big Quinn" were obviously their favourites but my impression was that they had fuckin' bams in their supportwho would have thought it !
