Forever R's - Les Ferdinand 12:05 - Feb 22 with 1645 views | numptydumpty | Appreciate Forever R's was, more than likely a new scheme and probably was introduced under Les's watch. He was in my eyes, our greatest ever number nine. Definitely in my time of watching Rangers. The guy got so much stick, unfortunately also a few personal insults as Director of Football, but if ever a man deserves an ovation for his unbelievable contribution to our history - its Les. I get the times under his watch with regards to being the Director of Football weren't the best, but you could always tell he gave it his all. In fact, the sh*t show that he inherited with a squad of massively over paid has-been prima donnas, he did well to stabilise us and especially with the finances and also throughout dealing with the FFP fine hanging over us every season, I think he did a decent job. Ainsworth as manager from day one was a disaster as a manager from ourselves and although obviously none of us could have been happy with his performances in the role, he got no personal insults at all, as a previous legend at the club. I know a lot on here were heavily critical of Les - harshly in my eyes, but I do feel the club should introduce him into the Forever R's club most definitely. Maybe, its too early after he left and with a lot of the previous regime still here, perhaps it wont happen as yet. Surely has to though, am certain the crowd at the ground would give the guy a standing ovation. As said our greatest centre forward ever - surely needs looking at ?? [Post edited 22 Feb 12:05]

Forever R's - Les Ferdinand on 12:25 - Feb 22 with 1544 views | DavieQPR | The best of his generation but not ever. Ferdinand did score 80 goals in 163 appearances but George Goddard (my Dads favourite) scored 174 in 243 games, including 39 in one season. Because of the money lost on the first White City debackle we were forced to sell him. |  | |  |

Yes would not have any idea about him. Paul Goddard is about as far back as I go. |  |

He did have more years in the second division with QPR though than Ferdinand who only played in the top flight for us |  | |  |

I don't think his physical appearance wasn't mocked. However, his Cuban heels and ridiculous hair were. And justifiably so, because let's be honest, the bloke did look a muppet! |  |
