Maybe the club have some contacts??

Very early doors, but it wouldn't it be great top have one night where they all got together and fans could turn up??

At this stage its a matter of getting as much information as possible to find out if its vaguely possible to do.

I know players like sometimes to get paid for these kind of events, but maybe some arms could be twisted. probably one of the last times, they would all get together. Don't remember it being done for a very long time.

that's an excellent idea Pete

i'm sure WATRBS member's would be happy to see some of old greats and would be willing to pay an entrance fee?

i remember being at a stan bowles night back at the black bull in ruislip (2005) where u paid a tenner to get in and he signed a few pics and done a few rangers sings songs

happy days

Pete, it sounds like a great idea. I'd still love to know what that great music was that the 75/76 team ran out to. Been trying to find out for ages to no avail. Perhaps some of the elder statesmen here might be able to remember...

Anway, I managed to dig out some more web info for you here. It was interesting to research some of this:

Ian Gillard - Semi-retired, living in Surrey. Runs a cleaning firm. Does some coaching at the Reading School of excellence. Still goes to games occasionally with his son or wife.

David Webb - Runs a property business. Lives on the south coast. Despite devoting all his time to a burgeoning business empire, he continues to keep an eye on events at Loftus Road. "Opportunities came along for me in recent times away from football. I bought up a load of petrol stations and I put my mind into the property side of things. So that is what I have been involved with for the last five years. I still follow QPR's fortunes and I was sad that the Club hit the buffers after leaving the Premiership. They just need some sort of stability at the R's now. So I am delighted that Flavio Briatore and Bernie Ecclestone have taken control and it would be very nice if they can bring the good times back to Rangers."

Frank McLintock - Sky Sports pundit

John Hollins - Sacked by Weymouth in December 2008.

Don Givens - Republic of Ireland U21 team manager.

Subs:
