Famous QPR Fans 17:41 - Dec 2 with 49370 viewsQPRSteve

Couldn't find the old thread on this.

I popped over to WeAreTheRangersBoys to see what there take was on Beale and stumbled on what looks like a definitive list of famous R's fans"

Right then, I only went and done it! Below is the list of names that have been mentioned above. Certain names mentioned were patently ridiculous and debunked in subsequent posts, eg Hugh Grant. Some are stretching the definition of "famous" but I left them in. Others were too imprecise eg "the one out of Eternal" so I left them out too. The list was compiled over 6 years so some are now dead or their fame has waned but irrespective of that I think they count as Famous Rs.
SEVEN esteemed posters separately answered with "Me" so maybe Michael Gove is actually a regular on here?
Lastly, Take any queries to Google - I really have no idea who half of them are. I've just listed 'em from above.

How can I possibly be a bot? I know all the Rangers chants! How does that song go?

"We are the Rangers *bots*
Stand up and make some noise".

Have we had Alan Johnson? Labour MP, political legend, huge fan. I read his autobiography recently - highly recommended.

I just stumbled across this.

Iain Morris, who co-wrote the film discussed in the article below, is apparently an Rs fan. He was on Hawksbee and Jacobs just now.
https://www.theguardian.com/film/2023/dec/20/next-goal-wins-review-michael-fassb

He mentioned us getting to the play-offs this season

As we bots say:

"Things had started becoming increasingly desperate at Loftus Road but QPR have been handed a massive lifeline and the place has absolutely erupted. it's carnage. It's bedlam. It's 1-1."

The Plymouth programme included an interview with the current drummer from Shed Seven who is a fan - which was really quite random.

There can be hardly anyone left. Nearly everyone is an Rs fan.

Not super famous but at least some of the band Hell is for Heroes are QPR. They were MTV2 popular in the early 2000s.

And their guitarist, Will McGonagle, occasionally posts about QPR now. He was also in Symposium, a pop-punk band that also had a couple of top 40 'hits' in the 90s.

I saw a picture of Joe Cole, who was in peaky blinders (i.e. the proper Joe Cole) in the box at QPR last night.
