If you had to pick one game. 11:20 - Apr 15 with 3014 viewsqpr_1968

if you had to pick one game that you had missed through whatever reason.
or a game long in our past e.g. qpr's first ever game, one just after the wars....you get the gist, what would it be.

for me the league cup final 1967.

The 2011 Watford away game where we clinched the Championship.

Having been to most games that season, I ended up missing it as somehow we were at our in-laws that weekend! Very poor planning on my part.


final game of that season vs Leeds

i was in a hotel in Miami waiting to board a cruise ship for a friends 50th birthday.

was about 7am in US when news came through of no points deduction and I completely lost my shite in the IT area in reception. They nearly called the cops as they thought i was a mental case; i had loads of calls coming in and felt elated but so far away from it all.

2004 Sheffield Wednesday I was at LR for the beamback which was a good old atmosphere but would have loved to be at Hillsboro.

Missed the play off final at Wembley as i was in Rome, but made sure (thanks to a Rangers fan on here) that both my father and son went, and were 4 rows back from behind the goal.

I can see them both celebrating on YouTube whenever i want. With dad gone, thats almost like seeing every great QPR match over the years rolled into one.

I have a copy of the big match live on itv of that back in the folks gaff. Back in the day it was one or two games live depending on a cup game been shown too. Think it was saint and greavsie hosting with a smug Dennis law in studio giving us no chance. He was eating pie by the end of it.

Loved to have been there.


The review in one of the papers that day was "this has the look of steamroller versus hedgehog about it".

"The opposite of love, after all, is not hate, but indifference."

Been going since 1970 but had to fit it around work etc for many years.

So there's been a few,

5-0 over boro'. Didn't even know we had a game until I heard the result the next morning as I was driving to Gatwick.

The 5-5, the 1-0 Tarabt masterclass false 9 at the scum which I watched on a hotel lobby computer in Baltimore. The Championship decider at Watford which I listened to online in a room in Canada. The Hillsboro promotion which I gave a swerve as, up to then, I had never seen us win outside London and did't want to jinx it. There are many more.

BUT the big one for me was the 6-0. It was way before the internet, had missed the football results on the world service, I was in a hotel room in Abu Dhabi and heard the local paper being pushed under the door. Leap't out of bed to search the results and thought it was a misprint!

I have had a season ticket for over ten years now so don't miss too many these days.

My old man an i hadn't missed a home game since i started going with him about 7 years previously. The car broke down on the drive up from Dartford meaning we missed the Everton match in the mid-70s (75?) where we beat them 5-0

QPR 4 - 0 Swansea Boxing Day 2010

The Tube strike f*cked me, decided to drive and got as far as Hammersmith roundabout but it was traffic carnage all the way with the braindeads going to poxy Westfield. Turned around and went home as it had already kicked off. Only one of two home matches I missed that season.

As a teenager, I started my first Saturday job at BHS in 1979. Not thrilled to have to miss my beloved Rs regularly for the first time since I'd started going in 1972.

First game missed

QPR 7 Burnley 0



So that'd be the one.

NY Day game v Man U. V late after heavy celebrations NY Eve. No time to pick up Dad in SE23, so raced to LR from E17 only to find ground full and gates shut. Returned home to resume my hangover.


When was this Hants?

Aaaaaah that's probably why I couldn't work out when that was - it was a year before I was born.
