    Born in St Helier,so Crystal Palace were my nearest club ,but more people from that area follow Chelsea than Palace , Palace was always seen as more of a Croydon thing , local non league teams were Sutton Utd ( who i still look out for ),Tooting & Mitcham ( went occasionally ) and Carshalton Athletic ( bunch of clowns)
    Rangers,Scooters ,Tunes and Trainers

            I lived briefly (moved to Slough when I was not even two) above what is now a chinese takeaway on Rose Hill. My nan worked in the shoe repairers next door later. I remember sitting in there as a kid helping measure out pints of maggots, and fetching fishing weights, because where else but a shoe repairers would you buy your fishing supplies?

            My Dad (who was the reason I'm QPR) had his crowning moment of football glory on the pitches yards down the road from there, scoring his only goal as a keeper on a windy day. Didn't even see it go in, just lumped it down field, turned his back on it and then got mobbed by his teammates

                  Born in Hammersmith Hospital so QPR is my local team, but grew up in Harrow so Harrow Boro was closest to me. However only ever saw them play a friendly against the scum and a few QPR reserve games down there.

                    Mighty Rebels fan. Slough Town who also got promoted via play offs last season. Great season for me to watch Slough win the playoffs then went to Wembley to watch Qpr win. Only difference is this season Slough is mid table. Wish QPR was though

                                I was meant to be born in Wimbledon, ended being born in Guildford. Lived off the Fulham Palace Road as a child, Craven Cottage was at the end of my road. Moved back to Wimbledon, but they were never close as by that time they were in Selhurst Park. Fulham & Chelsea have been my closest teams. My family aren't football fans, so I could choose and I chose QPR.
