Stan was my absolute hero as a kid. The best player I've ever seen play for us. My two favourite QPR items are a picture with Stan on SAR, and a signed copy of his book.
Terrible news. I hope the club can do something to help.
Supporting QPR isn't just about a football team. It's about roots and identity.
I remember one piece of skill from Stan which was unbelievable ....he was running flat out along the touch line with the ball at his feet and was faced with 3 opposing players, 2 of them were about 3m in front of Stan blocking his path, the 3rd defender was in the middle but about 7 or 8 metres further back.
Stan, quick as a flash kicked the ball downwards creating spin which went in-between the 2 in front of him allowing the ball to stop dead in front of the 3rd player but not too near him, allowing Stan to run through the 2 players collect the ball and put a cross in.
This happened right in front of me and l just could not believe it . Stan the most naturally gifted player iv ever seen.
Sad news. Explains the halting interview he gave at a recent half time. I missed his glory years up front, but saw one amazing season when he ran the show from midfield in a struggling team. I well remember my utter delight when he came back into the team under Docherty when we all expected him to leave.
as a kid i loved watching stan , my old dad was lost looking for directions one day and he stopped a bloke in the street , it was stan , dad said he was very helpful with no airs or graces . made me love stan even more . get well soon the true king of loftus road
