Two Ex-QPR Birthdays

-
Two former QPR Defenders and one former forward: Matt Rose, Rufus Brevett and Dean Coney.

Matt Rose Turns 32. Born September 24, 1975
Spent ten seasons with QPR before being released to join Yeovil. The unluckily often-injured Rose has played some 200+ games. Rose was signed for 500,000 pounds from Arsenal by Stuart Houston in the summmer of 1997. Rose See also: Matt Rose Remembered

Rufus Brevett Turns 38 - Born September 24, 1969
Signed by Don Howe from Doncaster Rovers in March 1991, (around the same time that QPR also signed defenders Peacock and Tillson.) Brevett played almost 150 games for QPR before being sold to Fulham in January 1998 (in what generally came to be seen as a bad move by QPR!). Recently became 'Sporting Director' at Swindon after the club's takeover. Brevett See also: Wikipedia/Brevett

And a Recent Birthday: Striker, Dean Coney who turned 44 - Born September 18, 1963. Coney was signed by Jim Smith from Fulham (along with Paul Parker). After a year, joined Norwich. See Wikipedia/Coney
