Recalling a Year Ago: QPR's Worst First 10 Game Start Since Premiership Relegation
This season after 10 games, QPR had 14 points. (After QPR's Saturday victory over Nottingham Forest, QPR moved onto 17 points from 11 games.)
This time last season, QPR, were bottom with 7 points from 10 games; having made their worst ten game start to a season since their Premiership relegation. Relegation would have seemed a certainty were it not for the fact that with new ownership, finances for transfers to strengthen the team seemed rather likely. QPR were in the process of finding a permanent replacement for John Gregory. It was reported that it was going to be Francesco Guidolin, until at the last moment he turned down QPR "Guidolin Installed this Week?"

Flashback II: Dave Thomas Debut: Thirty-six Years ago today
Thirty-six years ago today, QPR wonder winger, Dave Thomas made his QPR Debut after his record transfer signing for 165,000 pounds from Burnley.
Coming in for the tragically-injured Martyn Busby, Thomas had a not very good game, as QPR completed a five game winning streak, beating Sunderland 3-2 at Loftus Road (Bowles 2, Givens). Unlike Bowles, it took Thomas a little while to find his place in the QPR team.
Team for Thomas debut game: Parkes - Clement Evans Hazell Watson - Francis Venables Thomas - Leach Bowles Givens - More on Dave Thomas
Ex-QPR, Alan Glover Turns 58...
- Alan Glover - Born October 21, 1950: Glover made only seven appearances for QPR - all in our 1968/69 Relegation Trauma. Immediately, after our relegation, teenager Glover joined West Bromwich Albion for 70,000 pounds (including ex-QPR winger Clive Clark in part exchange). (The same fee QPR for Terry Venables a few months later). This a time when the record English transfer fee was just 150,000 pounds. Basically Glover sadly disappeared from the scene: in and out of the WBA team; and I believe ending up at Orient.
