On This Day: August 25 Season Openers...1973-Southampton...1984-WBA...1990-Nottm Forest-
August 25, 1973: QPR 1 Southampton 1
THIRTY-FIVE Years ago, today: QPR's First Game back in the First Division under Gordon Jago/Bobby Campbell. At home to Southamptom With John Delve replacing suspended Gerry Francis, QPR drew 1-1. Obviously, with hindsight, this was a brilliant QPR Team (with a few weaknesses) which went on to almost-great things. But before the start of the season, there were concerns: QPR's only previous experience with the First Division was their 1968/69 18 points humiliation.

One Year Ago Today: The Sad News of Ray Jones
Today's QPR Official Site - REMEMBERING RAY
Today (Monday 25th August 2008) marks the first anniversary of the untimely death of QPR starlet Ray Jones.

Everyone at Queens Park Rangers extends their deepest sympathies to the family and friends of Ray at this sad time.
