Mick Leach Would have been 60 Today

Mick Leach would be 60 Today: Mick Leach, Born January 16, 1947. Died in 1992

Great very much unappreciated QPR Hero of the mid-to late 1960s and much of the 1970s. Leach made his debut in 1974 and left in September 1979 (for the US).
Played over 300 games and scored over 60 goals, first as a forward; then as a midfielder (including in the 1975/76 "Championship" Team).

For quite a time, Leach was the "boo-boy" victim of some in the QPR crowd; the scapegoat; the person whose name was booed when he was announced in the lineup. But he showed true character.
