Just over 2 weeks to go to the first QPR History Day and Memorabilia Fair on Saturday 22 March in the Forever Rs bar. Doors open at 10.30am.
Two new books will be launched - Francis Peacock's much awaited book on the Terry Venables era and the club's book on Loftus Road "Our Stadium Our Home".
There will also be mini stadium tours and a Subbuteo tournament so please put the date in your diaries. It's the international break weekend. I am delighted to say that Michael Wale will be joining us to draw the winning raffle tickets. Prizes include signed photos of Stan Bowles, Rodney Marsh and Phil Parkes.
There will be nine memorabilia dealers joining us plus seven book authors with their books, including Rangers fan Mark Adolph and his book "Growing up with Subbuteo". Mark is Peter Adolph's son - the inventor of Subbuteo. Four fans will also be selling programmes, shirts, handbooks, stickers and cards.
Profits from the day will go to Extra Time, the Community Trust's initiative started in 2009 designed to help to get local residents aged over 65 together. |  | | |  |

No - it's all included in the £2. It will be a mini tour rather than the full tour that usually costs £7.50.
I have been told that the guide will be the same tour guide that usually gives the full tours. | | | |
