      I love Stan to bits and because of his affinity to the club he holds a special place in our hearts, but the club's greatest ever player was Rodney Marsh.You had to be there to just appreciate how good he was.

        We all love Stan so much, and im sure we would all give.
        Do we really need some entertainment for our tenner for a legend?
        I genuinely believe that would raise more money as well.
        Instead of puting it on the club, put it on us the fans to show how much we care.
        Very good point. I hate friendlies and testimonial games, always give them a swerve cos they're like watching paint dry. BUT... I actually went to Stan Bowles testimonial. It was so dire I can't remember it - think it was against Bees or Orient at LR or Griffin Park? Anyway, would be much more cost effective to do as you suggest and have a half-time ceremony at a game to present the proceeds. Everyone wins/gains.

          That is a very good idea.

          If QPR have 40,000 fans, regardless of whether they attend games or not, then donating £1 each would soon raise the cash needed.

          • Quote from Lee Hoos from the recent fans meeting: "Currently only 262 donations have been made to Stan’s Just Giving page which isn’t many at all. We as a clubwill be doing everything we can to promote the Stan Bowles Benefit Match at the end of July"

            F@cking shamefull performance from us

              Never heard anything about a Justgiving page. Who and where is this being advertised?

              Also whats a justgiving page being done for? I thought the whole point of raising funds was to have the benefit match?

                Justgiving link was in all the Club Programmes and has been put on Facebook too. It is a fund set up that goes directly into Stanley's Alzheimers fund. Club are also trying to organize a game along with another Fans Group set up for which an amount of money will be given to the just giving fund to allow Stan and his family to get the care they require.

                • Cant find his actual justgiving page on google apart from https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/stanbowlesday as theres a few set up. Dunno if anyone else has been able to find the main one? If someone knows it mods should pin the post so we can all donate, we could raise hundreds between us all easily

                    Thanks for the clarification Kit.

                    I don't buy the programmes anymore and have never seen it on FB.

                    Lee Hoos seems to have been right all along if that's the case then regarding fan interest in the game.

                      That must be a typo from the minutes. It's a Go Fund Me page. This one: https://www.gofundme.com/StanBowles

                      See above. Good idea, we will sticky it. The above link is on our landing page, along with all the club's other charities. WATRB donates to them all, including Stan's.

                      We also raised £325.00 for Stan last season with BrightonR's 'Stan Bowles / Alzheimers Charity Bet Thread': http://www.wearetherangersboys.com/f...y-Bet-Thread**.

                      • I saw on twitter there has been a previous game for Stan few years back where he got £17k when game was played at Griffin Park against the bees
