Paul Parker Rangers Hero number 1

[West Acton]

He was on TS last night doing his story for an hour. Was really interesting and QPR got loads of comments worth a listen for anyone who watched Paul

Only 5ft 7 but played most career at CB bossing bigger guys. My lasting memory of him was just how quick he was across the ground we used to call him the choo cbhoo train as a kid

Any memories from others

Given its closed season we should each week flag up couple of former players and reminisce

[lymehoop]

superb player, makes it all the more sad the standard we are forced to watch today (make the next player Clive Wilson, could eulogize about him for ever)

He bossed Graham Sharp, Everton's centre forward to the extent they took him off as a result.

[Chopper]

It was his ability in the air that was amazing. So quick too. Never liked him at right back. We had some great centre halves around then e.g. Danny Maddix and Alan McDonald.

Paul scoring the last goal when we done Luton 6.1 in 90 , really rounded off a top day

Neither did I. I thought centre half was his position.

Back in the day my dad had a collection of season review video tapes that i would watch as a little kid and that moment/game was always a standout for me. "He's brought the house down with that one" was what the commentator came out with in surprise at seeing him score.

Another standout moment, but for negative reasons, was a calton palmer inspired mauling.

remember him being comfortable on the ball a player you could trust , i stopped coming to games for 12 years so didn't see much of him only on tv

[Hertford Hoop]

A very assured defender, one of the best we have had

[vespa]

Loved the fact PP bigged us up in the media ,said we were a " proper " club compared to fulham ,how right he was ...

For future weeks Westie ,can i put in requests for John Burridge and good old Johnny Byrne ?

I will never forget Budgie's world class save at Charlton in 81, a thread on him would be great.

We won 2-1 by the way.

Budgie was the nutz.
Also would like to see Fenwick given a mention.
