Never played together 13:11 - Oct 6 with 6052 viewsdutch

Could you construct a great QPR eleven none of whom ever played in the same side? So you could have Rodney and Stanley and Sir Les, but not Gerry Francis or Phil Parkes. Ebere Eze and Kevin Gallen but not Alan McDonald. etc. Tough call.

Well played Brian. A good effort and a worthy runner-up


Ya, it's not good enough to win, really.
That defence would get opened up!

Rangers' first England International, so I thought I could sneak him in without too many questions!


That's an answer for those going on Mastermind with QPR as their specialist subject, or those compiling a quiz for QPR fans!

I don’t see many players tracking back from my midfield either Brian!

Poll: Which is the worst QPR team?

Never played together on 18:30 - Oct 8 with 1555 viewsCamberleyR

Here's my effort. I've checked and double checked this. A loose 4-3-3 or 4-3-1-2

GK Alex Smithies (2016-18)
RB Bradley Orr (2010-12)
LB Jim Langley (1965-67)
CB Bob Hazell (1979-83)
CB Dave Needham (June-December 1977)

CM Ray Wilkins (1989-96)
CM Terry Venables (1969-74)
LM Lee Cook (2004-07) (2009-12)

RM/FW Trevor Francis (1988-89)
FW Gary Bannister (1984-88)
SC Charlie Austin (2014-16) (2021-)

For those wondering, Smithies and Austin never played in the same team. Although Smithies was at the club, they were still playing Green until Chaz left for Saints.

Ray Wilkins also arrived just after Trevor Francis has been sacked, and was bought in by Don Howe. TF played his last game in October 1989 and Super Ray his first in December 1989.

Gary Bannister made his last appearance just before Trevor Francis made his first. Lee Cook never made an appearance alongside Bradley Orr in his second spell.

Walker is a great shout, well done. That allows me to change my team ( I didn't know Currie and Bowles played together, albeit briefly)

Cesar (12-13)

Walker (10-11), R Ferdinand (14-15), Carlisle (00-04), Assou-Ekotto (13-14)

Sinton (89-93), Sinclair (93-98), Johansen (21-?), Eze (16-20)

Bowles (72-79), Marsh (66-72)

Extra points for a team without Bowles or Marsh, but Roeder for Hazell?

Yes, Roeder for Hazell, good shout. You could quite easily exchange Byrne for Bannister as well.

How are Bradley Orr and Granero even close to anyones best team.

Also I accept what you are doing is looking at their career but Ferdinand, assau ekotto were so poor for us it seems disrespectful to choose them

The never played together rule means that not all eleven players are going to be anywhere near the best. The challenge is to make compromises that don't weaken the team too much. But I would definitely pick Kyle Walker over Bradley Orr as he was with us as he overlapped with even fewer players. I chose Granero because although he was no Ali Faurlin, he was only with us a season. It's anyone's guess as to how any of these teams would actually perform. Having Derry or Faurlin would definitely be an improvement on Granero and Gavin Mahon, but that's not the game here.

This is not a task to pick anyone's best team don't forget. Orr would be quite a distance from my best team, mate. Clement, Bardsley, Neill even Bignot would be way ahead but trying to find a right back that didn't play with everybody else I picked was extremely difficult. I mainly chose him because he played a part in our Championship winning team.

I probably would have chosen Walker but only picked players that were with us permanently and excluded loans, hence picking Orr.

The team from our relegation season in 2000/01 played like they never ever played together before.

I’m fairly certain Bedford and Lazarus would have played together. Also Faurlin and Polter I think were both at the club 2015/16 but not sure if they played together. Apart from that not bad ;)

Yep. Bedford and Lazarus played together when ML first moved to us in 1960 from Leyton Orient.

This was bloody hard. I’m only picking players I’ve seen play for us. I’m not sure whether Clive Allen and Leighton James played together for us. I hope not.

Alex Smithies

Angel Rangel
Aziz Ben Askar

Mark Dennis

Dave Thomas
Ray Wilkins
Alejandro Faurlin
Leighton James
